HEPES plays a very important role in skin care products. It acts as a buffer for biological media. Due to its characteristics, HEPES is widely used in skin care products as a mild exfoliating ingredient. At the same time, it is used to improve rough skin and promote metabolism of the skin.

According to the needs of customers, many skin care brands provide products with different effects, such as improving the appearance of enlarged skin cells and easily clogged pores. The combination of high content of HEPES and urea gives full play to the mild exfoliating effect, as well as the good moisturizing and repairing ability.

So, this combo not only exfoliates but also repairs. Although the effect will be faster if the high concentration of AHA is handled properly, the combination of HEPES and urea is more suitable for long-term use, and the effect will be slow and mild, because HEPES itself is a buffer, so the pH value is ideal, unlike acid That requires a lower pH to function.

HEPES is also used in most serums to gently exfoliate and promote absorption. But the urea effect that needs to be matched will be ideal, and the moisturizing effect is also a bright spot.
