This is a dual-action exfoliating treatment that combines the power of Alpha Hydroxy Acid (AHA) and Beta Hydroxy Acid (BHA) to deliver a deep, multi-layer resurfacing effect. Glycolic Acid works on the skin’s surface to dissolve dull, dead cells and smooth rough texture, while Salicylic Acid penetrates deep into the pores to break down sebum and clear blackheads. The formula is kept intentionally minimalist—with just Glycerin for humectant hydration and HEC for a silky, spreadable texture—making it a highly effective, no-frills solution for acne-prone or aging skin seeking radiance and clarity.

Ingredient List

Aqua (Deionized Water), Glycerin, Hydroxyethylcellulose (HEC), Glycolic Acid, Salicylic Acid, Disodium EDTA, Liquid Germal Plus (Phenoxyethanol & Chlorphenesin & Decylene Glycol).
How to Use

Important: This is a leave-on exfoliant, not a rinse-off wash. It requires careful usage to avoid over-exfoliation.
When: Evenings only, 1 to 3 times per week to start (never use in the morning without strict sun protection).
Step-by-step:
Cleanse your face with a gentle, non-exfoliating cleanser and pat skin completely dry. (Water on the skin can dilute the acids and lower efficacy).
Dispense a small amount (a few drops or a nickel-sized amount) into your palm or onto a cotton pad.
Apply evenly to your face, neck, and chest, avoiding the eye area, mouth, and any broken or irritated skin.
Wait 2–3 minutes for the formula to absorb fully before applying any other skincare products (like hydrating serums or moisturizers).
Follow with a moisturizer to restore hydration, as acids can be drying.
Critical Next-Day Step:
Always apply a broad-spectrum SPF 30+ sunscreen in the morning. Glycolic Acid increases photosensitivity, and this step is non-negotiable.
