What is Glycolic Acid?

Broadly used in the skincare industry for its powerful properties, like exfoliation and anti- aging, Glycolic acid is an alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA) derived from sugar cane. I Glycolic acid helps to remove dead skin cells, promote cell turnover, and reveal fresher, smoother skin. Its small molecular size allows it to penetrate deeply into the skin, making it highly effective. It is often used in treatments against hyperpigmentation and acne.

 

 

Benefits:

- Exfoliating: Removes dead skin cells and promotes a smoother, more radiant complexion

 

- Anti-aging: Reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles by stimulating collagen production

 

- Brightening:  Helps to even out skin tone and reduce hyperpigmentation.

 

- Improves skin health: Promotes a more refined and smoother skin texture through regular use.
