Antiseptic, antiseborrheic, exfoliating composition for getting rid of or preventing acne

Abstract

The invention refers to an antimicrobial, exfoliating and seboregulating hydrosoluble composition comprising a combination of diallyl disulphide modified oxide (DDMO) and alpha hydroxyethanoic acid (glycolic acid), which acts removing bacteria affecting the skin including those caused by acne, said composition also provides deep cleansing, exfoliating action, reduces epidermal cohesion facilitating cellular change, preventing the occurrence of several forms of acne in the skin and additionally producing seboregulating effects by avoiding blockage of sebaceous glands.
