AHA Lactic Acid Peel

Lactic acid products for dry skin Is Lactic acid an AHA?

Exfoliation is such an important step in your skincare routine. AHA (lactic acid) chemical peel exfoliators work to gently remove the top, dead layer of skin without the need for scrubs which can feel quite harsh on dry, sensitive skin. Lactic acid helps to dissolve the glue like bond that holds on the dead skin to the surface, it’s a more effective way to exfoliate and gives even results.

Regular use of a lactic acid AHA chemical peel will also enhance the efficacy (effectiveness) of the other products in your routine as they will be absorbed faster and won’t need to penetrate a layer of dead skin cells first.


The difference between AHA and BHA exfoliants


BHA exfoliants such as salicylic acid work within the pores while AHA exfoliants mainly work on the skin's surface making them particularly suitable for blemished skin, dry skin, hyperpigmentation, discolouration and age spots. There are various alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs), at Bravura London our favourites are Glycolic acid and Lactic acid. Lactic acid is a gentler acid and is therefor more suitable if you have sensitive skin or skin prone to dehydration. 


How to use and buy AHA lactic acid exfoliant products

Are you looking for a product with lactic acid? Take a look at our range of AHA exfoliants. From chemical peels to cleanser and toners, gels and moisturisers, find the AHA product that is most suited to your skin complaint and lifestyle.


How should you exfoliate?

If you are new to using lactic acid exfoliators, start with a lower percentage, you also don’t want a routine full of exfoliators, choose between a chemical peel or a product you’d use daily. Apply after cleansing. Our chemical peels are best applied with a brush or fingers, don’t use a cotton pad, this will waste the product. Apply over the entire face, avoiding the eye area. During the day, follow with a moisturiser that contains a broad-spectrum sunscreen rated SPF of at least 30.

UKRAINE SHIPPING SERVICES

We have resumed shipping to Ukraine but please be aware there will be delays. To buy products in Ukraine please contact https://aslaboratory.com.ua/.

We ship via Royal Mail, orders are then passed over to UKrposhta. Ukrposhta has provided an update that road access for postal exchanges with Ukrposhta’s centre in Kyiv is severely limited, some international mail processing operations have been moved to Lviv. Longer transit times continue to be experienced due to queues at the border and difficult road connections within Ukraine. Ukraine Post continue to remain committed to maintaining postal operations, but will not be able to guarantee compliance with the agreed delivery standards.


Ми відновили доставку в Україну, але майте на увазі, що можливі затримки. Щоб придбати продукцію в Україні, звертайтесь на сайт https://aslaboratory.com.ua/.

Відправляємо Королівською Поштою, потім замовлення передають на Укрпошту. Укрпошта повідомила про те, що під’їзд поштового зв’язку до центру Укрпошти в Києві сильно обмежений, деякі операції з обробки міжнародної пошти перенесено до Львова. Тривалість транзиту продовжує тривати через черги на кордоні та складне дорожнє сполучення в межах України. «Пошта України» продовжує підтримувати поштові операції, але не зможе гарантувати дотримання узгоджених стандартів доставки.
