Glycolic Acid

Glycolic acid is an alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) widely used in cosmetic exfoliating treatments to help improve the appearance of dull, uneven skin. Derived from sugar cane, glycolic acid has a small molecular size, allowing it to work effectively on the skin’s surface to loosen dead skin cells and support natural exfoliation.

As a wash-off chemical peel, this glycolic acid treatment is designed to help refine skin texture and promote a smoother, more radiant-looking complexion. By supporting the removal of built-up surface cells, glycolic acid can help improve the appearance of uneven tone and roughness, leaving skin looking clearer and more refreshed after use.

Regular exfoliation with glycolic acid is commonly associated with improvements in the appearance of fine lines and skin texture, as smoother skin reflects light more evenly. With continued, correct use, skin can appear brighter, more even, and better balanced, making glycolic acid a popular choice for those seeking visible skin-smoothing benefits within a controlled routine.

This formulation has been designed to deliver effective exfoliation while maintaining skin comfort in a rinse-off format. Short contact time helps limit over-exfoliation, making it suitable for those who prefer a more controlled approach compared to leave-on acid products. When used as directed, it can be incorporated into a skincare routine aimed at improving overall skin clarity and smoothness.

Glycolic acid is also commonly used in cosmetic products intended for blemish-prone skin, as surface exfoliation can help reduce the appearance of congestion caused by dead skin cell buildup. Over time, this can contribute to skin that looks clearer and more refined, without relying on physical exfoliants.

A thin, even layer is sufficient per application, making the product economical and suitable for gradual introduction into a routine. As with all exfoliating treatments, it is recommended to follow use with hydrating skincare and daily sun protection. Avoid use on compromised or irritated skin.

With consistent use as directed, this glycolic acid peel offers an effective yet considered way to support smoother, brighter-looking skin.
