This is the renewed version of Isntree’s Chestnut AHA 8% Clear Essence – a highly effective but gentle chemical exfoliant. Use this to smooth out texture, reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and increase cell turnover. It can also improve sun damage and even out skin tone if used with proper sun protection.
Isntree is a brand that is committed to helping the environment. Their research has shown that chestnut shell extract can shrink enlarged pores, as well as soothe the skin. Upcycled discarded chestnut shells are used to derive this super ingredient. Additionally, the essence contains 4% Lactic Acid, which works on the surface of the skin to boost radiance and improve signs of aging. It also acts as a humectant. 4% Glycolic Acid works in the deeper layers of the skin to reduce texture and increase skin elasticity and firmness. Cica and Hyaluronic Acid soothe and hydrate skin.
This serum has been clinically proven to have a 0.00% skin irritation index and is formulated to work for sensitive skin.
Key Ingredients
4% Glycolic Acid
This is an Alpha Hydroxy Acid. It increases cell turnover and stimulates collagen production. If used with proper sun care, it can improve sun damage as well. It has a small molecular weight so absorbs deeper into the skin. This can cause tingling or burning in high concentrations.
4% Lactic Acid
A very gentle chemical exfoliator which has a larger molecular size than glycolic acid. It works on the surface of the skin to help shed dead skin cells as well as hydrate the skin.
Chestnut Extract
Heals the pore lining and has antioxidant and soothing properties.
It is recommended to exfoliate 1-3 times a week. We also don’t recommend combining this with other actives (e.g. benzoyl peroxide, retinol or other exfoliants) in the same routine.
Use after cleansing and toning, but before moisturizer and sunscreen. It can also be used as a toner.
