ZO introduces Offects Sulfur Masque
ZO Skin Health has added Offects Sulfur Masque to its award-winning range.
The chemical element sulphur, a naturally occurring non-metal mineral is a key ingredient, which has been used to treat acne and other kinds of inflammation of the skin for thousands of years. Many people who have acne respond well to the combination of foaming sulphur in the morning and topical tretinoin/ retinol product at night. Foaming sulphur kills acne bacteria and moisturises skin.
Offects Sulfur Masque is a deep pre-medicated cleansing masque for treating oily or acneic skin. This masque absorbs surface oils, exfoliates dead skin cells and removes pore blocking dirt and debris.
Cosmetic dermatologist Dr Rachael Eckel said,“Sulphur is a prized ingredient when treating acne; it both stymies sebum production and is a potent keratolytic agent. Its use however, has been previously limited, due to formulation challenges around its fetid smell. Using ultra-modern cosmetic chemistry advances, the ZO Sulfur Masque Acne Treatment delivers all the benefits of this treasured agent via a delightful medium. Additional phytoenzymes such as bromelanin provide auxiliary exfoliation, while eucalyptus quells irritation and redness. By targeting the three pillars of disease pathogenesis, this comprehensive formulation is ideal for acneic skin. Results are compelling, delivered by a convenient, home use masque system.”
