Common complaints when it comes to facial cleansers in general include dryness, sensitivity, and tightness thanks to the use potent surfactants in their formulation. While these harsh chemicals are necessary in removing damaging substances such as dead skin cell buildup, excess sebum, accumulated pollutants and makeup residue on the skin’s surface, they often strip it of natural oils and hydration. When the skin’s healthy skin barrier is disrupted, it loses its natural protective function as a result.
If you’re looking to elevate your skincare ritual, consider adding a cleanser from Clé de Peau Beauté‘s improved Pro-Cleansing series to your routine. In a quest to stay ahead of the skincare game, the luxury skincare brand took these concerns into consideration in its scientific research and came up with new technologies to not only purify the skin, but also improve its resilience by nourishing and protecting it. They include the Intelligent Cleansing Technology, ResiliLock Technology and IntelligentFood, which were then introduced to existing formulas in the Pro-Cleansing series.
Intelligent Cleansing Technology works by binding itself only to impurities while maintaining the skin’s moisture levels, leaving you with clean pores without any signs of dryness. By preserving the alignment of intracellular lipids between corneocytes, ResiliLock Technology helps in maintaining the skin’s structural integrity, improving its ability to retain hydration. The fruit and plant extracts in IntelligentFood not only neutralise the damaging effects of pollutants with their antioxidant properties, but also feed the skin with essential vitamins and minerals. What you’ll experience after using cleansers from this range is stronger skin that glows.
