Alpha-Hydroxy acids

What are Alpha -Hydroxy acids?

Alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs) are a group of active ingredients often used in skincare products. Naturally occurring, they can be found in sources such as sugar cane (glycolic acid), lemons (citric acid), apples (malic acid), grapes (tartaric acid) , sugar beet and milk (lactic acid).
Alpha-hydroxy acids work on the skin's surface, exfoliating away dead skin cells to improve texture.

What are the benefits?

Whether you have oily, acne-prone, or dry skin, there are a variety of AHA-containing products to help with your skin goals and concerns.
From targeting acne scars and reducing dark spots, to refining uneven skin tone and minimising fine lines, AHAs have several uses.
Since AHAs also work to clear away dead skin cells, any flaky skin is shown the door. Glycolic acid can even aid collagen production, while lactic acid can boost moisture.
Before incorporating into your skincare routine, those with sensitive skin should take care with alpha-hydroxy acids and test before use to avoid skin irritation or adverse reactions.

How do we use it?

Incorporating alpha-hydroxy acids into your skincare routine can be transformative if you're looking to achieve a smooth, radiant complexion.
Our Fruit Peel Resurfacing Serum and Electric Bloom Brightening Tightening Mask use carefully balanced concentrations of AHAs for your glowiest skin yet.
