What is licochalcone?
Licochalcone gives this moisturizer its characteristic yellow color. It is also in the
AHA+
. Licochalcone is a highly distilled and potent extract of a species of licorice root well known for powerfully calming and soothing the skin. It is especially beneficial on acne-prone skin which tends to be sensitive and irritated. Licochalcone is incredibly expensive at $6000 per kilogram, but you guys loved it so much in the AHA+ that I heard loud and clear that you wanted it included in the moisturizer as well. [Note: To avoid staining light colored clothing, allow moisturizer to absorb for 30 seconds or so before dressing.]
Is the moisturizer non-comedogenic?
Yes. 100%. You do not have to worry about this moisturizer clogging your pores. I chose each ingredient carefully to ensure that this moisturizer is completely non-comedogenic. Far from causing any problems with acne, regular use should actually help calm and soothe acne-prone skin.
How many do I need per month?
about one 8 oz. bottle
Why add jojoba?
Jojoba oil makes any regular moisturizer into a super moisturizer. If you want extra hydration, try mixing in a few drops (5-6) of jojoba oil to your moisturizer before you apply it. The added jojoba oil will provide an extra boost of moisture without clogging pores. It may also help control oil productionan extra, very welcome benefit.
