Your skin sits around 5, and a classic soap-based cleanser pushes that to 9 or 10. Your skin then needs hours to recover, and during that time, it is more vulnerable. This foam is formulated not to disrupt that pH, hence its official name: pH Balancing Foam.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePumpkin extract makes up 85 percent of the formula, supplemented with seventeen types of amino acids, the building blocks of your skin’s natural moisturizing factors. Niacinamide is added for a more even complexion, along with ceramide NP and squalane to replenish the lipid layer, and licorice and allantoin extracts to soothe.

This is what you see as a gray complexion and rough texture. This gel contains 15 percent alpha hydroxy acids, primarily glycolic acid and citric acid, which loosen the bonds between these old cells so they shed naturally. This is fundamentally different from a scrub, which uses grains to abrade the skin and often does more harm than good for sensitive or blemish-prone skin.
