AHA (Glycolic / Lactic Acid)
Also listed as Glycolic Acid, Lactic Acid, Mandelic Acid
What it does
Water-soluble acids that loosen the bonds between dead cells on the skin's surface. Glycolic acid is the smallest and strongest, lactic acid also hydrates, and mandelic acid is the gentlest. Regular use smooths rough texture and brightens dull skin.
How to use it
Two or three evenings a week on clean, dry skin, followed by a moisturizer. AHAs make skin more sensitive to the sun, so daily SPF is not optional.
