This non-abrasive exfoliant decongests and revitalizes dull skin with food-grade Lactic Acid.
DETAILS
This non-abrasive exfoliant uses a 5% food-grade Lactic Acid and a natural base of Algin + Aloe Vera to gently and effectively dissolve dead skin cells, while maintaining healthy, hydrated skin.
Evenly spread (don't rub) 2-3 pumps over clean, dry skin, avoiding the eye + lip areas.
Leave on between 10-15 minutes to exfoliate + brighten.
Use 1x-2x per week in the evening.
Removal:
Option 1. Remove by rinsing with cool water and follow with your regular evening skincare routine.
Option 2. After 10-15 minutes, apply moisturizer and/or oil over the Lactic Acid and leave on overnight.
Note: The acid will be mostly neutralized by the oil/moisturizer, but this application does provide a deeper exfoliation and may not be suitable for highly sensitive skin.
TIPS
Some tingling may be felt upon application but if skin starts to burn, remove immediately with cool water.
Avoid applying to freshly shaved skin or 'open' skin of any kind.
For thick or very congested skin, switch between using a manual scrub and Lactic Acid.
Can be used more frequently as a spot treatment.
Always follow with an SPF the next day.
Used to treat flakiness, blemishes, blackheads and ingrown hairs.
A good introductory acid for those that are new to using acids to exfoliate. For most clients, we recommend starting with the 5% before moving to the 10% concentration.
