Glycolic acid is one of the most trusted exfoliating ingredients in skincare, celebrated for its ability to smooth texture, brighten dullness, and reveal fresher-looking skin. As the smallest alpha hydroxy acid (AHA), glycolic acid penetrates efficiently, making it especially effective for mature skin or skin experiencing dryness, roughness, or uneven tone.
It’s the hero active in our Exfoliating Glycolic Solution, a gentle, leave-on exfoliating toner designed to support skin renewal while maintaining hydration and comfort.
What Makes Glycolic Acid So Effective?
Glycolic acid helps:
- Lift away dead skin buildup for smoother texture
- Brighten the look of dull or uneven skin
- Promote skin renewal for improved clarity
- Enhance absorption of serums and moisturizers
Benefits for Mature or Dry Skin
1. Smooths the Look of Texture & Fine Lines
Glycolic acid supports surface exfoliation, helping soften the appearance of fine lines caused by dryness or slower skin turnover.
2. Boosts Radiance
By removing surface buildup, glycolic acid helps restore a brighter, more vibrant appearance.
3. Helps Even the Look of Skin Tone
Regular use can help reduce the appearance of dark spots, post-inflammatory marks, and uneven skin tone.
4. Supports Better Product Performance
With dead skin removed, serums and moisturizers penetrate more effectively—amplifying the benefits of your full skincare routine.
