New from Pai Skincare is Phaze, an ultra-mild Polyhydroxy Acid (PHA) cleanser on a mission to decongest and clarify spot-prone skin without stripping or drying even the most sensitive complexions.
With a trio of actives, this innovative gel gently exfoliates, strengthens the skin barrier and hydrates in one – with moisturizing effects that last long after it’s been rinsed away. A certified natural formula, its gentle-foaming action gives the same refreshing sensation of a traditional foam cleanser without the dryness.
Key Ingredients
Automatically generated with low confidencePHA – otherwise known as Gluconolactone – is sourced from the glucose in maize. Thanks to its large molecules which keep it on the skin’s surface, it’s kinder than other exfoliators (including AHAs) but no less hard-working. It sloughs away dead skin cells, unclogging pores for clearer skin.
Prebiotic Inulin is extracted from chicory roots. This protective prebiotic rebalances the skin’s microbiota to form a natural defensive shield and keep the skin barrier healthy. Pai only sources Inulin from suppliers that ensure its scientifically tested for its prebiotic properties.
NMF Sugar Complex is sourced from the sugar in harvested kernel corn. This hero hydrator is almost identical to the carbohydrate complex found in the skin’s own natural moisturizing factor. It binds to keratin like a magnet, staying behind once the cleanser is rinsed away – locking in moisture for visibly smoother, less flaky and deeply hydrated skin.
Pai Phaze PHA Clarifying Face Wash is now available for $19 (28ml) and $39 (100ml) at paiskincare.us.
