10% Azelaic-Acid Technology
Mesoestetic currently describes blemiderm® Treatment as containing 10% Azelaic Acid.
Azelaic-acid technology is particularly relevant to acne-prone skin because of its complementary sebum-regulating, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial and keratinisation-supporting properties.
Importantly, the current official INCI lists Disodium Azelate, the sodium salt of azelaic acid, rather than free Azelaic Acid.
Chris&Alley therefore retains Mesoestetic's official 10% positioning while avoiding the claim that the INCI contains 10% pure free Azelaic Acid.
Liposomal Retinol
Retinol supports normal epidermal renewal and helps reduce the abnormal accumulation of dead skin cells that can contribute to pore blockage.
Mesoestetic uses a liposomal delivery system to incorporate Retinol within its broader acne-correction strategy.
It also helps improve uneven texture and the appearance of residual post-breakout skin changes.
Salicylic Acid
An oil-soluble beta-hydroxy acid particularly suited to congested and acne-prone skin.
Salicylic Acid helps exfoliate within sebum-rich pores, loosen congestion and improve the appearance of blackheads, whiteheads and irregular texture.
Mandelic Acid
An alpha-hydroxy acid with exfoliating and complementary antimicrobial properties.
It supports surface renewal while helping refine uneven texture associated with oily and acne-prone skin.
Shikimic Acid
A naturally derived acid highlighted by Mesoestetic as one of the key actives in blemiderm® Treatment.
It provides complementary exfoliating and sebum-regulating activity within the formula's multi-acid strategy.
blemiclear Complex
Mesoestetic's proprietary acne-regulation technology.
The brand positions blemiclear complex around four key actions:
Sebum regulation
Microbiota rebalancing
Anti-inflammatory activity
Regulation of hormonal pathways associated with blemish formation
The manufacturer does not map the complete trade complex to one single ingredient on the consumer product page, so Chris&Alley does not present blemiclear as though it were an individual INCI ingredient.
Sphingomonas Ferment Extract
A biotechnology-derived ferment included in the current formula.
It provides skin-conditioning support and fits within the product's broader microbiome-conscious approach.
Epigallocatechin Gallate
A potent green-tea-derived antioxidant.
EGCG provides antioxidant and anti-inflammatory support and complements the formula's strategy for inflamed, blemish-prone skin.
Serenoa Serrulata Fruit Extract
Saw Palmetto extract is included within the current formulation and provides complementary support within the product's oil-regulating strategy.
Bioflavonoids
Plant-derived antioxidant compounds that provide additional environmental and anti-inflammatory support.
