Alpha Hydroxy Acids (AHAs):
1. Glycolic Acid:
Derived from sugarcane, glycolic acid is a powerhouse AHA known for its small molecular size, enabling effective penetration into the skin. Bocassy employs glycolic acid for its exfoliating properties, aiding in the removal of dead skin cells to reveal a smoother and brighter complexion. This acid also stimulates collagen production, contributing to firmer and more youthful-looking skin.
2. Lactic Acid:
Naturally found in milk, lactic acid is a gentle AHA suitable for various skin types. Bocassy incorporates lactic acid for its exfoliating and hydrating properties. It helps to slough off dead skin cells, improving texture, and simultaneously promotes skin hydration, making it an ideal choice for those with sensitive skin.
3. Citric Acid:
Derived from citrus fruits, citric acid is a versatile AHA with antioxidant properties. Bocassy utilizes citric acid to brighten the skin, diminish dark spots, and contribute to an even skin tone. Its antioxidant qualities also provide protection against environmental stressors.
Beta Hydroxy Acids (BHAs):
1. Salicylic Acid:
A derivative of willow bark, salicylic acid is a prominent BHA celebrated for its ability to penetrate into the oil glands. Bocassy incorporates salicylic acid for its exfoliating and anti-inflammatory properties, making it particularly effective for treating acne-prone skin. It helps unclog pores, reduce excess oil, and promote a clearer complexion.

Usage Recommendations:
AHAs: Ideal for addressing concerns like dullness, fine lines, and uneven texture. Suitable for most skin types, but individuals with sensitive skin should start with lower concentrations.
