Glycolic Acid
Glycolic acid is a type of Alpha Hydroxy Acid (AHA) and is derived from sugar cane. It is a small molecular structure that is able to penetrate deeply into the skin, making it an effective exfoliant. Glycolic acid works by gently loosening and removing the completely dried and dead skin cells, revealing fresh, smooth skin beneath. It can be used as an acne treatment, rejuvenating skin, improving hyperpigmentation, and reducing wrinkles and fine lines. In addition, glycolic acid can be used to improve the appearance of skin texture and dryness resulting from sun damage.
