ABSTRACT:
New cosmetic compositions are disclosed that are effective both as moisturizers and skin sloughing agents. The compositions contain neutralized weak organic acids that when applied over time to the skin in appropriate formulations will gradually increase in acidity to pH 5.5 or less, for example about pH 4.5, without causing skin irritation while exhibiting increasing activity in skin renewal effects.
