ISNtree Chestnut AHA 8% Clear Essence 100 ml

Indications

The ISNtree Chestnut AHA 8% Clear Essence is an exfoliating essence ideal for those looking to renew the skin gently yet effectively. With 8% AHA acids (4% glycolic acid and 4% lactic acid), it aims to promote a smoother and radiant texture, eliminate dead cells, unclog pores, and diminish signs of skin fatigue such as dull complexion, irregularities, and enlarged pores. This formula is suitable for all skin types, including dry, sensitive, combination, and blemish-prone skin, helping to even out the tone, combat spots, and improve overall skin comfort. It is also an excellent addition to skincare routines aiming to enhance the absorption of subsequent treatments, enhancing their effects on the skin.

Properties

The strength of this essence lies in the synergistic combination of its main active ingredients, which promote multiple skin benefits:

Glycolic Acid (4%) – a low molecular weight AHA, quickly penetrates the skin layers and stimulates cell renewal, promoting a smooth and renewed texture, as well as helping to reduce the appearance of spots and fine lines.

Lactic Acid (4%) – another AHA, with a gentler action and moisturizing properties, complements glycolic acid by removing dead cells without compromising the skin's natural hydration.

Chestnut Shell Extract (Castanea Crenata Shell Extract) – rich in antioxidants and with soothing action, helps firm and brighten the skin, complementing the exfoliating effect with regenerative care.

Centella Asiatica and derivatives (Asiaticoside, Asiatic Acid, Madecassic Acid, Madecassoside) – calming ingredients with regenerating and antioxidant properties that help strengthen the skin barrier, relieve irritations, and promote skin recovery.

Sodium Hyaluronate (hyaluronic acid) – a powerful humectant that attracts and retains water, providing deep hydration, plump skin, and prolonged comfort.

Panthenol – also known as pro-vitamin B5, has moisturizing, anti-inflammatory, and reparative properties, helping to soothe more sensitive or fragile skins exposed to AHAs.

Portulaca Oleracea Extract, Allantoin, Paeonia Suffruticosa – a combination of soothing, antioxidant, and softening agents that protect against irritation, redness, and strengthen skin comfort after chemical exfoliation.

Results

With regular use, this essence provides visibly smoother, brighter, and more even skin. By removing dead cells and favoring skin renewal, it reduces the appearance of enlarged pores, uneven texture, spots, and post-acne marks. The inclusion of moisturizing and soothing actives ensures that even after exfoliation, the skin remains comfortable, hydrated, and less sensitive. Continuous use reinforces the skin barrier and promotes a healthier and revitalized appearance, ideal for preparing and enhancing subsequent care.

Directions for Use

After cleansing and toning, apply to dry skin, using the pipette or appropriate dose, gently spreading following the skin texture. It is recommended to use 2-3 times a week at night, adjusting the frequency according to skin sensitivity (sensitive skin: 1-2 times a week). Ensure the application of a broad-spectrum sunscreen in the morning, as AHAs increase sun sensitivity. Avoid direct combination with retinol or high concentrations of vitamin C to prevent irritation. For particularly reactive skins, the essence can be diluted with aloe vera gel in a 1:1 ratio in the first uses for gradual skin acclimatization.
