NJAAS (Not Just Another Acid) | Face Serum for Sensitive Skin

Experience the Power of Botanical Treasures in This Lightweight Serum

Are you tired of battling stubborn skin concerns, feeling defeated by irritation, or constantly searching for a solution that truly understands your sensitive skin? At YOU Skincare, we get it. Founded by Amy, a scientist, formulator, and someone who intimately understands the frustration of problem skin, we created NJAAS not just as a product, but as a compassionate solution for women like you.

NJAAS, or "Not Just Another Acid," is a revolutionary face serum for sensitive skin, meticulously crafted to transform your complexion without compromise. This isn't your typical harsh acid treatment; it's a testament to our philosophy that clear, radiant skin doesn't have to come at the cost of comfort. We believe in listening to your skin, nourishing your body, and choosing ingredients that work with you, not against you.

What Makes NJAAS Your Skin's New Best Friend?

This potent yet remarkably gentle serum is a game-changer for those seeking visible results without irritation. NJAAS is enriched with a symphony of nature's finest botanical treasures and cutting-edge brightening actives, all carefully selected to cater to even the most delicate skin:

• Lactic Acid (5%): As an Alpha Hydroxy Acid (AHA), Lactic Acid is celebrated for its gentle exfoliating properties. Unlike harsher acids, lactic acid is a larger molecule, meaning it penetrates the skin more slowly and evenly, minimizing irritation while effectively loosening the bonds between dead skin cells. This promotes the appearance of smoother texture, clearer pores, and a more radiant complexion. Furthermore, lactic acid is a natural humectant, drawing moisture into the skin, contributing to NJAAS's hydrating feel. 
• Hyaluronic Acid: This powerhouse humectant can hold up to 1,000 times its weight in water, making it exceptional for deep hydration. In NJAAS, Hyaluronic Acid acts as a moisture magnet, plumping the skin, reducing the appearance of fine lines, and enhancing overall suppleness. Its presence ensures that while the serum is actively working to refine your skin, it also provides a protective veil of hydration, preventing dryness often associated with exfoliating treatments. 
  
• Alpha Arbutin & Bearberry Extract: These ingredients are key players in visibly improving hyperpigmentation. Alpha Arbutin is a glycoside of hydroquinone, known for its ability to help inhibit tyrosinase, the enzyme responsible for melanin production. Bearberry extract naturally contains arbutin, offering a synergistic effect. Together, they work to visibly diminish the appearance of existing dark spots, sun-induced discoloration, and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, promoting a more uniform and brighter-looking skin tone.
  
• Licorice Root Extract: Beyond its visible brightening capabilities, Licorice Root Extract helps to visibly soothe the skin and reduce the appearance of redness, contributing to a more even-toned complexion. Its natural compounds, like glabridin, also contribute to its skin-lightening effects. 
  
• Centella Asiatica (Cica): A beloved ingredient in traditional medicine, Centella Asiatica is known for its soothing properties. For sensitive and acne-prone skin, Centella Asiatica helps to visibly calm the skin, reduce the appearance of redness, and support the look of overall skin recovery.
  
• Oat Protein: Hydrolyzed Oat Protein provides a protective and soothing film on the skin, reducing transepidermal water loss and alleviating dryness and irritation. It's particularly beneficial for sensitive and compromised skin barriers, offering a comforting and nourishing touch. 
  
• Turmeric Water: Known for its powerful antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, Turmeric helps to brighten the complexion, reduce redness, and protect the skin from oxidative stress. Its inclusion in NJAAS further enhances the serum's ability to promote a healthy, radiant glow. 

Beyond Exfoliation: A Multi-Tasking Marvel

NJAAS goes far beyond simple exfoliation. This highly concentrated serum is designed to:

• Gently Exfoliate: Effectively, yet tenderly, slough away dead skin cells to reveal fresher, brighter skin beneath.
• Clear Pores: Helps minimize the appearance of pores, contributing to a smoother- looking complexion.
• Enhance Texture & Tone: Visibly improve skin texture, smoothing roughness and promoting a more uniform skin tone.
  
• Boost Radiance: Contribute to an undeniable, healthy glow that reflects your skin's newfound vitality.
  

While our Clarifying Glow Serum addresses the appearance of troubled skin, NJAAS is the refined, second-generation evolution, offering potentially more powerful and quicker cosmetic results for pigmentation concerns, particularly those stemming from sun exposure. It functions with the efficacy of an acid serum but embraces the lightness and hydration of your favorite everyday serum.

Your Journey to Clear, Glowing Skin Starts Here

"It is fantastic in helping to visibly reduce the appearance of congestion super fast without any irritation at all. There is no tingling sensation but you still get the benefit of clear glowing skin. This used along with her 20% Vit C serum I have found huge difference in my pigmentation on my cheeks and just overall glowing hydrated skin." - Parita, A Valued YOU Skincare Customer

Best for: All skin types, especially those struggling with sun damage, congestion, and dehydration.

Amy's Tip: As with any chemical exfoliant, introduce NJAAS gradually. Begin with once a week, slowly increasing to twice a week. Once your skin adjusts, you can use it every other night for optimal results. For most skin types, twice a week is sufficient.

How to Use: Always patch test before full application. Discontinue use immediately if irritation occurs. After cleansing and hydration steps, massage 1-2 pumps onto skin until
fully absorbed. Can be used both AM and PM. Always apply sunscreen in the morning when using NJAAS.

Important Note: While NJAAS is a face serum for sensitive skin, avoid using other exfoliating products in the same routine until you understand how your skin reacts. For most skin types, twice a week is sufficient.
