- Skin that requires deep exfoliation and resurfacing
Key Ingredients:
- Glycolic Acid – a type of Alpha Hydroxy Acid (AHA) known as “fruit acids” naturally occurring in sugar cane juice. It is the most effective AHA due to its a small molecular structure that allows it to penetrate the surface of the skin more readily. It acts as a mild exfoliant to remove dry skin cells and enhance cell turnover.
- Lactic Acid – a type of Alpha Hydroxy Acid (AHA) derived from sour milk, it exfoliates by loosening or breaking up the thick outer layer of the skin. This exfoliation, or epidermal shedding, smoothes the skin’s texture and stimulates natural skin cell regeneration. It also increases the water-holding ability of the skin, helping to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
- Salicylic Acid – a type of Beta Hydroxy Acid (BHA) which encourages the sloughing of dead skin cells and has the ability to penetrate into the pore to clear out and unclog, therefore reducing the size over time.
