Acer Saccharum Extract
Definition
Acer Saccharum (Sugar Maple) Extract is derived from the Sugar Maple tree. It is primarily known for its exfoliating properties due to its natural source of alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs), particularly malic acid. AHAs help to gently remove dead skin cells, promoting smoother and brighter skin. Acer Saccharum Extract also functions as a humectant, attracting and retaining moisture in the skin, which helps to enhance hydration and improve skin texture. Additionally, it contains antioxidants that can help protect the skin against environmental damage and promote a more even skin tone.
