About HERO / pH SOLUTION 02 - Travel size

This innovative, instantly balancing pH solution promotes skin health by gently restoring its natural protective barrier, also known as the acid mantle.

HERO is a clear, serum-like liquid which is applied as the first step in your skin care ritual and as needed throughout the day. This version is in a practical travel size.

Daily use of HERO will effectively help prevent moisture loss, skin sensitivity, dryness and damage from environmental factors, while strengthening the skin’s natural ability to renew and regenerate. HERO helps provide the best conditions for the skin’s healing process on the body, face and/or scalp.

HERO’s pH balancing properties optimise the skin’s natural immune system, which is key to the health, general condition and appearance of our skin.

You can also apply HERO pH solution 02 to the scalp in towel-dried hair, after washing. HERO balances the pH of the scalp, its natural protective barrier and sebum production. HERO helps relieve dryness, irritation, oily scalp or other periodic problems that may occur in this area.

Our skin has a natural pH of around 5, and when this is disrupted on a daily basis by things as simple as cleansing the skin, long showers, visits to the swimming pool, frequent hand washing, doing the dishes, use of detergents, etc., the skin’s protective acid mantle is disrupted and pushed temporarily out of sync.

It can take hours until the protective barrier – and thus the skin’s pH – is stabilised and restored, and in the meantime, the skin is left vulnerable and susceptible to infection, irritation and drying out – and this is the main reason for many skin issues.

Several scientific studies show the importance of a stabilised pH value to wound healing as well as skin disorders and general dermatological skin diseases such as seborrheic dermatitis, psoriasis, rosacea, eczema and acne. But HERO is for all skin types – even normal skin, which also deserves the best possible conditions.

  • Apply daily to the face, neck and chest, hands, scalp and/or body – the areas you wish to protect and balance.
  • Apply on dry skin after contact with water.
  • Do not rinse off. HERO pH solution 02 is a leave-on product.
  • Apply immediately after showering, facial cleansing, hand washing or other contact with soap, hand sanitizer or cleaning products to instantly stabilize the pH of your skin.
  • Use with your preferred Karmameju skincare products for the face or body.
  • HERO pH solution 02 can also be used on dermatologically-challenged areas of the skin to ensure the best conditions for the skin’s healing process.
  • Ideal after swimming, hand washing, doing the dishes, cleaning, etc.

pH and the skin

  • The skin’s pH value is essential for the skin’s condition, look, and health
  • The use of water, soap, and chemicals disrupt the skin’s natural pH value and pushes the skin’s protective acid mantle temporarily out of sync  
  • A normal shower pushes the skin’s pH value to a more alkaline level which disrupts the skin’s natural acid mantle
  • Depending on age, gender and skin type, it can take hours before the optimal pH value is stabilised and restored
  • Skin with a too alkaline pH value is often dry, vulnerable, oily or irritated – and this is the main reason for many skin issues
  • Scientific studies document the importance of a stabilised pH value to wound healing as well as skin disorders and general skin diseases such as seborrheic dermatitis, psoriasis, rosacea, eczema, and acne

The optimal pH of the skin is one of the most important “active ingredients” we can ensure the skin gets. HERO pH solution 02 has the mildest, most simple list of ingredients. It is the combination of these ingredients – in the right amounts and the correct formulation – that stabilises the skin’s pH.

Ingredients: Aqua/water/eau, glycerin (vegetable), pentylene glycol (natural source), pectin, hydroxyacetophenone, citric acid. Ingredient list may change or vary. Please always refer to ingredient list on product packaging.

I have been a part of the test panel for HERO since I suffer from rosacea. It is surprising how healing it was to my skin and my redness have disappeared. I use it both in the morning and in the evening and I have no skin problems anymore.

What is pH?

pH is a numeric value that is applied to measure the acidity of a hydrous solution, skincare products and on the surface of the skin. The pH scale measures how acidic or alkaline a substance is, and the scale ranges from 0 to 14; a pH of 7 is neutral, a pH of less than 7 is acidic and a pH higher than 7 is alkaline. Balanced skin thrives with a pH value of approximately 5, meaning that the skin pH is slightly acidic. Conversely, the inner body thrives at a neutral pH value of 7.

The pH-scale

Is your skin’s pH in balance or is it out of sync?

Why is the skin’s pH so significant?

The skin deserves the best conditions and the most significant starting point for achieving healthy skin is a stabilised pH value. The pH of the skin plays a crucial role in the skin’s condition and appearance. Changes in the pH value affect the enzyme activity and disrupt the natural cell renewal processes that are vital to the skin’s health.

The skin has a delicate protective layer on the surface; the acid mantle, which consists of sebum and sweat from the many microscopic pores in the skin. The acid mantle’s most important job is to protect the skin by maintaining an optimal balance of moisture, natural protective oils and the skin’s vital bacterial flora. At the same time, it has to protect from harmful exogenous bacteria, fungal infections, UV radiation and pollution. The acid mantle functions as an essential protective barrier and “a knight in shining armour” for the skin’s immune system.
