Chemistry Rebuilds vanity cases, but these are the ones at the very top.
Chemistry Rebuilds: When we hear the terms chemistry and cosmetics together, we automatically assume the only connection is interpreting the labels on your skincare products.
Chemistry Rebuilds: But there’s more: chemistry is responsible for your favorite active chemicals in skincare products. Chemistry is not your adversary! Let’s look at some of the most popular active serum components and how they may help your skin.
Nature comes to the rescue with chemistry.
All cosmetics, whether they are in the form of a cream, gel, emulsion, or oil, have the same basic structure: one or more active ingredients that ensure the product’s effectiveness, an excipient to transport these ingredients, and additives to perfume, preserve, and lather the product while also stabilizing its pH.
These many components might be derived from plants, animals, minerals, or even synthetic materials. Nature’s resources, however, are finite, as we all know. To save the cosmetics business and conserve natural resources, chemistry comes to the rescue!
Chemistry is far from the villain of the narrative; it substitutes natural components by synthesizing or biotechnologically replicating compounds present in nature. But that’s not all: when our bodies can’t generate enough of particular molecules, such as collagen or hyaluronic acid, chemistry plays a role in our cosmetics.
All of our skincare products include chemistry.
The active chemicals in Skincare that make up our cosmetic goods are derived from chemistry, including retinol, parabens, and peptides. They’re in all of our bathrooms and vanity cases, but these are the ones at the very top.
The substance salicylic acid
This substance is a common beta hydroxy acid (BHA) found naturally in plants and is used as a topical therapy for acne-prone skin.
What is the purpose of salicylic acid?
Salicylic acid’s anti-inflammatory and exfoliating qualities make it an excellent active serum component for reducing breakouts and improving skin texture. Salicylic acid also has the advantage of penetrating deep into blocked pores and clearing them out, decreasing sebum production and breaking down pimples.
