Key ingredients

  • Glycolic Acid
    Is naturally found in sugar cane, which has a small molecular size that allows it to penetrate deeper into the skin to target a variety of skin concerns. Glycolic Acid assists in unclogging pores, refining and diminishing the appearance of enlarged pores.
  • Lactic Acid
    Part of the Alpha Hydroxy Acids (AHAs) group, is a naturally occurring carboxylic acid, which is found in many foods. This gentle exfoliant works by breaking down the structure of dead skin cells without causing sensitivity.
  • Amino Acids
    Small proteins which bind to acids for a slow release of the acid.

    Hi Ruth,

    Thanks for your feedback. Your support is highly appreciated.

    30% Amino Hydroxy Complex increases the cell turnover of the skin and this increase in cell turnover can cause tight, red, flaking skin when the product is used more frequently than advised, especially on skin that is new to exfoliating. It is advised to be used once a week simply to avoid-overstimulating the skin.
