Key Actives
Glycolic Acid
Glycolic acid acts as a potent exfoliator and peeling agent by removing dead skin cells and revealing brighter, healthier skin beneath. It also has antibacterial properties that can help reduce the appearance of blemishes.
Lactic Acid
Lactic acid exfoliates the skin's surface by dissolving the substance that keeps dead skin together, allowing it to slough naturally and evening out skin tone. It also has hydrating properties.
Tartaric Acid
An alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) which has antioxidant properties that help to maintain the pH range needed so that other AHAs can work more effectively as exfoliants.
Keratoline
Keratoline is a gentle enzymatic exfoliant that removes dead skin cells to reveal healthy, radiant skin. It promotes cellular turnover.
How to Use
We recommend using your AHA Exfoliating Treatment once a week at night, gradually building up to twice a week. You should apply directly after cleansing on a dry face and you do not need to wash it off. Wait 10 minutes to let it fully absorb on your skin before applying your moisturiser.
*With starting any new active skincare regime, a patch test prior to application is recommended.
