Smooth Out

description

We have designed Smooth Out to give your skin a clinically proven collagen-boosting amount of AHAs and, at the same time, to be as gentle as possible. The 12% glycolic and lactic acid combination removes the dead skin cells gently, but effectively from the surface of the skin and gives you a healthy glow overnight.

With ongoing use, it boosts the skin’s own collagen production, smooths fine lines, fades hyperpigmentation and boosts the effectiveness of treatments and moisturizers used afterwards.

We combined the AHAs with Nopal Cactus Extract that’s designed to reduce potential neurosensory irritation caused by higher amounts of alpha hydroxy acids and we also added extra humectants to boost the water-binding ability of lactic and glycolic acid.

who is it for?

Everyone! Well almost. :) Unless your skin is very sensitive or prone to redness (in this case take a look at Calm Down) Smooth Out should work. We especially recommend it, if your focus is smart-aging, if you have hyperpigmentation, or if would like more even, smooth and glowy skin.

how to use

It’s an ideal first step after cleansing your skin. Use it as a toner, either with a cotton pad or pour it into your hands and pat it on as men do with after-shave. Avoid using around the eye area!

You can use Smooth Out from once a week to once a day depending on your skin’s level of tolerance. You might experience some light tingling after application, which is normal and will go away soon. You can reduce the tingling sensation, if you apply the product to completely dry skin. Do not use other exfoliants or scrubs at the same time as Smooth Out.

IMPORTANT: AHA acids make the skin more sensitive to the sun. Use a good SPF in the morning!

Shelf life: 2 years from production (unopened), 8 months PAO (period after opening)

ingreds & research

key ingreds:

Glycolic acid – The most proven and most researched AHA that not only gently exfoliates the surface of the skin, but also boosts the skin’s own collagen production and fades brown spots.

Lactic acid – The second most researched AHA that is not only a gentle, but effective exfoliating acid, but is also a fantastic humectant.

Nopal cactus + yeast extract – A unique combination of cactus and yeast extracts containing low molecular weight peptides, carbohydrates and bound minerals designed to reduce neurosensory irritation caused by the application of high amounts of AHAs.

Galactoarabinan – A natural polysaccharide extracted from the larch tree that reduces Trans-epidermal Water Loss as well as increasing the efficacy of skin exfoliants.

Panthenol – A classic skincare ingredient that is a reliable soothing, moisturising and skin-protecting agent.

Xylitylglucoside + Anhydroxylitol + Xylitol A sugar based humectant trio that increases the skin’s water-binding capacity and strengthens the skin’s barrier.

Sodium hyaluronate crosspolymer A new generation, cross-linked hyaluronic acid whose water binding ability is several times greater than the already amazing water-binding ability of hyaluronic acid which helps keep the skin nicely moisturized.

Effective!

I've had amazingly good luck with Smooth Out. I've had no sensitivity even using it once a day, and it really has smoothed out my skin texture. I use it with Stress Less, Power Peptides and aPad, but I've also been using C-Glow after SO dries, with no issues. I use A-Game 10 in the evenings, and the combination has been very effective! G&G is my absolute favorite skincare brand! (BTW, if you guys launch a sunscreen, PLEASE stay with European/Korean ingredients rather than what we're stuck with in the U.S. which are just awful.)

It’s so smoothing! It has definitely helped with fine lines, exfoliating, adds a healthy beautiful glow it’s wonderful for those of us who are aging. It reduces the appearance of fine lines, age spots, texture. It’s great! I haven’t tried anything from Geek & Gorgeous that I don’t love. Their products are fantastic!

Super verträglich, extrem wirkungsvoll

Ich bin Mitte 40, neige zu Pigmentflecken und hab eine grossporige Mischhaut. Also schwierig. Dieses tolle Produkt hat zusammen mit den anderen Geek and Gorgeous Produkten Wunder vollbracht. Nach ca. 2 bis 3 Wochen der Anwendung ist mein Hautton schön einheitlich, Flecken sind deutlich verblasst. Die Haut ist ganz feindporig geworden, Unterlagerungen sind weg. Ich benutze es abends im Wechsel mit dem 0,5 % Retinal. Danke für die großartigen Produkte zu einem unschlagbaren Preis!
