mesoestetic - brightening foam

The mesoestetic brightening foam is a foaming cleansing gel for normal, combination or uneven-textured skin. You use it as the first step in your routine, before applying serums and creams. The gel contains Glycolic Acid and Lactic Acid, two AHAs, acids that loosen dead skin cells during cleansing.

What is the mesoestetic brightening foam?

The mesoestetic brightening foam is a cleansing gel that foams up as soon as you mix it with water. The foam lifts away make-up residue, sebum and dirt, which you then rinse off with water. The formula combines Glycolic Acid and Lactic Acid with Aloe Vera, so your skin does not feel tight after cleansing.

Who is the mesoestetic brightening foam for?

The brightening foam is made for normal or combination skin with an uneven texture, for example from clogged pores or a dull look. It also suits skin that feels oily in the T-zone during the day but drier on the cheeks. If you mainly deal with blemishes and oily skin, the mesoestetic purifying mousse with Salicylic Acid may suit you better.

How do you use the mesoestetic brightening foam?

Wet your face with lukewarm water. Take a small amount of the brightening foam on your fingers and work it into a soft lather. Massage the foam over your face and neck in circular movements for one to two minutes. Rinse off with plenty of lukewarm water. Use the brightening foam in the morning and evening, avoiding the direct eye area. After cleansing, apply the hydratonic mist, which restores the skin's pH balance, the acidity that water and cleansing temporarily disrupt. If you also use a separate exfoliator or a vitamin C serum, use those at a different time of day.

Active ingredients

Together these ingredients give the brightening foam a thorough yet gentle cleanse.

• Glycolic Acid, an AHA (alpha hydroxy acid), loosens dead skin cells while you cleanse. Skin feels softer and its texture looks more even.
• Lactic Acid, also an AHA, works in a similar way to Glycolic Acid, but more gently. It also draws in moisture.
• Aloe Vera is a plant extract that soothes the skin and helps prevent it from feeling tight after cleansing.
• Lactobacillus Ferment is a fermented ingredient that supports the balance of good bacteria on the skin, which contributes to a calmer-looking complexion.
• Urban D-tox is a biotechnology complex that helps protect the skin against particles from polluted air.
