The Nescens Keratolytic Complex is a powerful Swiss resurfacing formula designed to refine texture, reduce pore visibility, and restore clarity and radiance. This keratolytic resurfacing complex combines polyhydroxy acid, salicylic acid, and phytic acid in a synergistic blend to encourage gentle desquamation of the skin’s outermost layer, smoothing roughness and renewing the skin’s profile.  

Use 1–2 times per week as a corrective treatment to promote exfoliation, firm tissues, and improve mechanical skin properties such as elasticity, firmness, and tonicity.  

How to Use
Apply two pumps to the face and neck on clean, dry skin (after cleansing), preferably in the evening. Avoid eye and lip contour. Leave on for 5 minutes, then gently remove with a damp cloth and pat dry. Use once or twice weekly depending on skin sensitivity and type.  

Do not use immediately before sun exposure or within 1 hour after shaving (for men).  

Main Ingredients (Actives)

• Lactobionic Acid — a polyhydroxy acid (PHA) that exfoliates gently while hydrating and reinforcing epidermal cohesion.  

• Salicylic Acid — exfoliates within pores and removes dead cells (keratolytic effect)  

• Phytic Acid — chelating agent that reduces signs of aging and helps maintain optimal hydration levels
