Where does it come from?
Salix Alba Bark Extract is obtained from the bark of the white willow tree (Salix alba), which is native to Europe, Asia, and parts of North America.

Exfoliating: Provides gentle exfoliation by promoting cell turnover, leading to smoother and clearer skin.
Soothing: Offers anti-inflammatory effects, helping to soothe and calm irritated or inflamed skin.
Anti-acne: Helps to control excess oil and reduce the appearance of pores, making it ideal for oily and acne-prone skin.
Toning: Acts as an astringent, tightening the skin and improving skin tone.
Protecting: Contains antioxidants that protect the skin from free radicals and environmental stressors.
Healing: Supports skin renewal and repair, enhancing overall skin texture and clarity.
