Lotion P50 Corps

Recommended for all Skin Instants©.

Carefully cleanse the body, then apply Lotion P50 Corps onto the entire body by performing upward massaging movements. All areas must be treated, in particular dry and rough areas (feet, elbows, knees). Equipped with a spray, the lotion is evenly applied over the entire body, notably facilitating application onto the back.

This lotion can be applied before another treatment to facilitate the penetration of its active ingredients.

For more effective exfoliation, you can combine the use of Lotion P50 Corps with the action of the Biologique Recherche Massage Glove. Use delicate gestures to respect the fragility of the stratum corneum.

Thanks to its formulation, Lotion P50 Corps can be applied every day.

Using Lotion P50 Corps is particularly recommended before and after prolonged exposure to the sun, before the application of a self-tanner, in winter and before hair removal. Focus on rough areas as they are more prone to discoloration.

A slight tingling sensation may be felt. This is normal and a sign that Lotion P50 Corps is working, starting to rebalance the epidermis. This tingling sensation will decrease with use and as the skin’s pH becomes balanced.

Precautions for use:

-Lotion P50 Corps is for external treatment only.

-Do not use Lotion P50 Corps on scratched or irritated skin, skin with open wounds or burns, or after sunburn.

-Not suitable for children.

-Avoid contact with the eyes.

-Avoid immediate exposure to the sun after applying the product.

AHA Fruit Extracts (Alpha Hydroxy Acids): Alpha Hydroxy Acids are a category of acids derived from fruit sugar or milk. Adding a Complex of fruits titrated in AHA (natural mixture) to the initial AHA Extracts reinforces the desquamation process of the corneocytes found on the surface of the stratum corneum: their keratolytic effect helps exfoliate the skin while making it smoother. The synergy between these two active ingredients frees the skin of its impurities to cleanse, smooth and refine the skin texture, thereby softening and enhancing the skin.

BHA (Beta Hydroxy Acids): Salicylic Acid is a BHA naturally synthesized by certain plants such as the willow. Known for many years for its medicinal properties (anti-inflammatory property in aspirin), it also plays an important role in cosmetics. It is a keratolytic agent that is more lipophilic than AHAs. Therefore, it can go through the sebum and more easily penetrate through pores in order to dissolve dead cells that are obstructing them. Its exfoliating action helps smooth the skin and stimulate the epidermal renewal process.

Gluconolactone: Gluconolactone is naturally present in honey and fruit juices. Through its structure, it penetrates less in the stratum corneum than AHAs. Therefore, it is less irritating than AHAs. It is an exfoliant that gently removes dead cells from the skin's surface.

Cider Vinegar: This extract is obtained from the fermentation of apples which are then transformed into vinegar. Its high tannin content gives it purifying and astringent properties. Cider Vinegar is rich in fruit acids (citric and malic acid) which contribute to improving cellular renewal and provide a regenerative effect.

Phytic Acid: Phytic Acid is a natural rice derivative. It is able to fix ions, notably calcium ions. A protein called cadherin is located in the stratum corneum it plays an important role in corneocyte cohesion. This protein’s functionality depends on calcium ions. Through its properties, phytic acid is able to deprive cadherins of calcium ions. The latter lose their functionality and adhesion to corneocytes is no longer ensured. Therefore, it has a keratolytic action and helps promote cellular renewal. In addition to being an exfoliant for the epidermis, this action is also used to even out the complexion. Finally, its very low pH makes it a true acidity booster.

Magnesium Chloride: Magnesium Chloride is used in the treatment of acne because of its antiseptic, cleansing, sebo-regulating and healing properties. It can also be used to treat other skin conditions such as eczema.

Vitamin B3 (ou PP): Niacinamide or Vitamin B3 or PP is a water-soluble vitamin that belongs to the vitamin B group.It has anti-inflammatory properties that soothe itching.

Meadowsweet (Extract): Meadowsweet, or spiraea ulmaria, is an herbaceous plant that grows in moist soils in temperate areas. Meadowsweet is hydrating, astringent and softening. Remineralizing and toning, Meadowsweet is an excellent active ingredient for dull skin.

Birch Bark (Bark Extract): Birch is a deciduous tree native to the Northern Hemisphere. The bark of the birch is pure white. This bark is characterized by a rich and varied composition in terms of enzymes (amylase, glucidase, beta-glucosidase, maltase, saccharase), phenolic compounds (4% to 15% of tannins and coumarins) and triterpenes (10% to 14% betulin, also known as birch camphor, which is responsible for the whiteness of the bark). Its specific composition gives it astringent, exfoliating and softening properties beneficial for the dry skin of the body, hands or feet.
