Kvitok Purifying Gel Cleanser 80 ml

Product description Kvitok Purifying Gel Cleanser 80 ml

The Gentle Cleansing Gel from the Solution by Kvitok® collection is ideal for deep cleansing of the skin. It also has a mild exfoliating effect, which, with long-term use, supports effective cleansing and refining of pores, softening of pigmentation and wrinkles, removes impurities from the skin while maintaining its hydration, prevents drying, and thanks to the prebiotic complex, supports its natural protection.

With the inclusion of a clinically tested white willow extract (salicylic acid), it gently and thoroughly removes impurities and dead cells from the skin while respecting the skin's natural protective film, preventing drying and increasing the efficiency of further treatment. The presence of the clinically tested Aquacacteen ingredient firms, soothes, and assists in hydration. The clinically tested preBIULIN AGA ingredient helps protect, hydrate, and improve skin condition.

Cleansing gel contains:

The base is organic Lavender floral water, which tones the skin, restores its natural pH, provides nourishing substances, and increases the efficiency of further treatment. This organic floral water has antiseptic and regenerative properties and is an excellent tonic suitable for all skin types. It cleanses, refreshes, and moisturizes the skin, helps fight wrinkles, soothes redness, sunburn, itching, or other irritations.

Skin cleansing is ensured by Yucca extract originating from the desert areas of California and Mexico, rich in naturally occurring saponins, making it a perfect natural and gentle cleansing alternative to harsh surfactants or soaps. Saponins are surfactants that effectively clean the skin. Their great advantage over "natural soap" (sodium or potassium salts of fatty acids) is their electrostatic neutrality. These saponins are considered nonionic surfactants and are stable over a wide pH range, while soap is considered anionic surfactant and has a high pH, much higher than the physiological pH of the skin, making it more aggressive during cleaning. Yucca extract contains hundreds of steroid saponins along with polyphenols, mainly resveratrol and stilbenes, and has been used for centuries in traditional medicine in Mexico for its anti-inflammatory and anti-arthritic properties.

A key component for deeper cleansing and gentle exfoliation is the extract from white willow bark = plant salicylic acid. It was identified as part of the endogenous defense mechanisms of the White Willow tree (Salix Alba) and protects it from pathogens. White willow bark is a natural source of this acid and is thus a suitable natural alternative to synthetic salicylic acid, used in many cosmetic products.

It is ideal for reducing inflammation, redness, and has antimicrobial effects. It acts keratolytically, deep within the pores, and can effectively reduce so-called blackheads. It is suitable for caring for mature skin, reducing fine wrinkles and pigmentation.

Clinical studies show that a 2% concentration (equivalent to a 1% concentration of synthetic salicylic acid used for comparison at this concentration) can accelerate cell renewal by 26% (synthetic SA by 22%), and after 4 weeks of regular use, improves skin firmness by 44% (synthetic SA by 32%). The efficacy of both acids was also studied in inhibiting the growth of S. Aureus and P. Acnes bacteria, where higher efficacy was again proven for the natural form.

Since the gel is a rinse-off product, the efficacy of this ingredient is not as strong as in the case of leave-on products (creams, serums); the exfoliation is only gentle and appears with regular long-term use.

The prebiotic complex PrebiulinAga, composed of inulin from chicory and agave, helps create a healthy microbial flora on our skin after washing, thereby supporting the improvement of its defense capabilities. It demonstrably supports the formation of our skin's microbiological film and prevents the development of further infections. This natural prebiotic consists of inulin extracted from chicory root and glucosaccharides obtained by enzymatic synthesis of natural sugars. It promotes the growth of protective microorganisms that help restore the microbiome layer, while pathogenic bacteria are eliminated, naturally balancing their ratio, helping to prevent inflammatory reactions. Clinical studies prove that it supports skin hydration (compared to a 0.1% hyaluronic acid concentration, this complex hydrates faster and longer).

For better hydration, the gel is enriched with the clinically tested active ingredient Aquacacteen — an extract from the Mexican cactus Opuntia, which soothes irritated skin, reduces redness and itching. It protects and firms the skin after UV exposure. It provides skin with water-binding substances, ensuring long-lasting hydration, firmer and more vital skin, even after rinsing.

In a clinical study, shower gels with varying concentrations of this active ingredient were tested, hydration was measured using a Corneometer, and the results are shown in the following graph. Within one week, skin hydration increased by 16%.

Usage

Shake before use. Apply a small amount of gel (approximately 2-3 pumps) to cleansed moist skin, massage thoroughly to capture impurities in the gel, and leave on the skin for about 1 minute. Rinse with lukewarm water or wipe off with a damp pad. After cleansing, treat the skin with a toning lotion, apply serum, and face cream according to your skin type. Use morning and evening (the gel is suitable as a second cleansing step or morning cleanser).

Our tip: For comprehensive care and maximum efficacy of clinically tested active ingredients, use in combination with other products from the Solution by Kvitok® collection according to your skin type and condition.
