Taking a biotechnologically-advanced approach to skin purification unlike the concept of cleansers in skincare today, LVCE is a skin cleaning system that respects dermal barriers while regulating visible sebum production, cleaning the skin thoroughly and removing all traces of makeup in a single step. LVCE contains no cleansing plant oils, no detergents and no water but instead uses isolated sugar and avocado esters to remove every trace of dirt and makeup with or without water. While the skin feels comfortably hydrated after each use, the technologies in LVCE will actually further act as delivery boosters for topical treatments applied after cleaning.
- Fatty Alcohol Ethylhexanoic Acid EsterNot to be mistaken for alcohol or acids, this incredibly emollient and skin-friendly ester takes the approach of using the enemy's strength to win against the enemy—its structure is nearly identical to a vast array of emollients used in makeup and skincare (the enemy of clean skin), allowing this ester to reconstitute—or breakdown—these formulations solely by being so similar to them. Within seconds of application, with or without water, this flexible ester is able to dissolve even the most complex forms of silicones, oils, pigments and other topical formulations.
- Isoamyl Alcohol Lauric Acid EsterOnce again with no relationship to alcohol or acids, this ester is another skin-friendly cleaner that is able to breakdown even the most persistent forms of UV filters used in skincare and sun care today. UV screening technologies are very difficult to detach completely from the skin and this ester is specifically conditioned for this purpose to purify the skin and the pores.
- Catalyzed Avocado Butyl Alcohol EsterA true evolution in green biochemistry, this patented avocado ester is able to clean the skin instantly of nearly every hydrophobic substance while clinically shown to balance sebum activity so that both dry skin and oily skin can benefit equally toward normalized behaviour.
- Gallic Acid EsterBoth a cleaning ester and a potent antioxidant, this technology facilitates the removal of LVCE itself once other technologies are bound to surface impurities. As this ester is the last-man standing and closest-reacting to the skin, its antioxidant function is of significant value, offering tissue-adhering, water-free oxidative protection on a daily basis.
Other Ingredients: Clarified Peruvian Inca Inchi Oil purely for its protective alpha-linoleic acid content (not a cleansing oil as traditionally used in oil cleansers), Vitamin E to support ongoing repair of minor environmental or physical assaults to the skin and penetration-enhancing glycol ethers to improve absorption of subsequent skincare.
