What Are The Key Ingredients in Mario Badescu Skin Care Products?
There’s a range of key ingredients used throughout the Mario Badescu skin care collection, but most of the ingredients are pretty standard. For example, the brand uses AHAs, salicylic acid, sodium hyaluronate, vitamin C, glycerin, surfactants, emollients, and aloe vera. These are common skin care ingredients that you can easily find in products by other brands.
The brand’s acne spot treatment products, such as the Mario Badescu Drying Lotion and Drying Cream, are slightly more innovative, with key ingredients like calamine and ichthammol. These ingredients aren’t used often in the skin care industry anymore, but perhaps you recognize them from your grandmother’s medicine cabinet.
Yes, that’s right, both of these ingredients have quite a long history of use. Ichthammol was first discovered in the early 1880s, and the use of calamine lotion dates back as far as 1500 BC.
While these ingredients certainly have a long history of use, there’s actually not much research supporting their use for acne. Both ingredients work by drying out the blemish, which is a short term solution and doesn’t actually address the root cause of acne.
According to Healthline, using calamine lotion as spot treatment can help because calamine lotion has drying properties, it can help dry out pimples caused by excess oil faster. But overdrying acne can cause irritation and make acne worse, so calamine lotion should be used sparingly.
Now onto the not-so-good ingredients you’ll find in these products. As you probably noticed from our descriptions of the best Mario Badescu skin care products, this brand uses parabens and fragrance in nearly all of their products. So why is this a problem? Let’s take a look at the research.
Parabens are preservatives used to extend the shelf life of a product by preventing microbial contamination. The use of parabens in cosmetics and skin care products is controversial because there is conflicting research on the potential health consequences of long term exposure to parabens.
