Those ingredients looked familiar to me from work I’ve done with skin health products. They’re cosmetic product ingredients. A quick ChatGPT check:
- Salicylic acid is a beta-hydroxy acid commonly used in acne treatments and exfoliating products. It penetrates oil glands to unclog pores and has anti-inflammatory properties.
- Glycolic acid is an alpha-hydroxy acid mainly used for skin exfoliation and anti-aging. It helps remove dead skin cells and can improve the appearance of fine lines.
- Tretinoin is a prescription-strength retinoid used for treating acne and signs of aging. It promotes skin cell turnover and boosts collagen production.
So, if this $0.50 soap bar gets to market, I assume it will quickly be snapped up by people looking to generally keep their skin young and healthy, because that’s a hell of a lot cheaper than other products containing those ingredients.
