GLYCOLIC ACID

A form of alpha-hydroxy-acid (or AHA) glycolic acid is a type of chemical exfoliant derived from sugar cane that improves cell turnover on the skin’s surface, resulting in a smoother, more youthful appearance. It is known for its low molecular weight, enabling it to easily penetrate the skin’s surface and work efficiently.

What does glycolic acid do for your face?

Is glycolic acid safe for sensitive skin?

Yes! In the concentration levels you’ll find in over-the-counter formulas, glycolic acid is generally considered safe for sensitive skin. Just be sure to follow the usage directions carefully. Of course, whenever you’re introducing a new active ingredient into your skincare routine, it’s a good idea to do a patch test on a small area before applying to your full face.
