Garden of Wisdom's PHA Plus Serum contains next generation of AHA's called Polyhydroxy Acids (PHA's) to help exfoliate, brighten, firm, hydrate and amplify the benefits of other anti-ageing products without irritation. Read Shabir’s article, ‘What are Polyhydroxy Acids (PHA's)?’ here.
PHA Plus Serum contains Polyhydroxy acids (PHA's), Gluconolactone and Lactobionic acid, which have been shown to display significant anti-ageing benefits when applied topically to the skin. Due to their larger molecular size, PHA's offer gentler exfoliation when compared to AHA's, making them ideal for all skin types, including sensitive and redness-prone skin.
Polyhydroxy Acids also protect the skin from harmful UV radiation and enhance collagen production to promote firmer skin. They also bring humectant properties, making them ideal for dry, dehydrated skin.
In addition, Phytic Acid derived from the hulls of seeds and rice helps treat ageing skin, hyperpigmentation, loss of skin elasticity and inflammation, while making the skin tone and texture more even overall. Gluconolactone specifically inhibits the enzyme elastase – the cause of sagging skin – to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
