Functions
Astringent
Tightens and contracts skin tissue, temporarily shrinking pores and reducing oiliness. That "clean, tight" feeling after toner.
Exfoliant
Removes dead skin cells so fresh ones can come through. Chemical exfoliants (acids) are generally gentler than physical scrubs.
Conditioning
A catch-all term for ingredients that improve how skin looks and feels — softer, smoother, more supple. The workhorse behind most moisturizers.
Smoothing
Soothing
Calms redness, irritation, and inflammation. Your skin's chill pill — great for sensitive, reactive, or post-procedure skin.
Tightens Pores
Keratolytic
Antioxidant Protection
Reduces Inflammation
Locks In Moisture
Traditional Use
Raspberry has been used in European folk medicine and traditional herbalism for its antioxidant and skin-soothing properties, with the fruit and leaves valued for treating skin inflammation and promoting complexion clarity.
