Why This Duo Works Wonders

Combining yogurt and apple cider vinegar in skincare brings balance and harmony — the ultimate pairing for dry, sensitive, and breakout-prone skin. While yogurt soothes and hydrates, ACV gently exfoliates and supports skin clarity. Together, they create a creamy, calming experience that respects your skin’s natural barrier.


The Science Behind Skin pH and Microbiome

Your skin thrives in a slightly acidic state — usually around a pH of 5.5. When this is disrupted, issues like flaking, redness, or breakouts can appear. Yogurt and ACV naturally support a healthy skin pH and microbiome by reinforcing its natural defenses and reducing inflammation.


Yogurt’s Role: Nourish and Soothe

Yogurt is packed with probiotics, lactic acid, and essential nutrients. It gently exfoliates while deeply nourishing the skin, making it ideal for calming irritation, redness, or tightness caused by dryness.


ACV’s Role: Balance and Protect

Apple cider vinegar brings natural acids like malic and acetic acid into the mix, which help tone and refine skin texture. Its antibacterial qualities also help prevent blemishes while protecting the skin’s microbiome.

Why Josspure's Soap Formula Is Different

Josspure’s ACV & Yogurt Bar brings together certified-organic ACV, probiotic-rich yogurt, and nourishing shea butter in a single bar. It’s cold-processed in small batches to maintain the potency of each ingredient — with zero toxins, fillers, or artificial fragrances.
