Lactic Acid 5% + HA

Lactic Acid 5% + HA is a mild exfoliating serum formulated to improve skin texture, brighten tone, and increase hydration. Because it blends lactic acid with hyaluronic acid, this lightweight formula resurfaces dull skin while maintaining essential moisture.

Why Choose This Exfoliating Serum?

This treatment contains 5% lactic acid to gently slough away dead skin cells, revealing a smoother, more radiant complexion. Furthermore, the added hyaluronic acid draws in moisture and soothes the skin, making the exfoliation process more comfortable even for beginners.

Main Benefits

• Exfoliates gently to improve skin texture and tone.
• Boosts hydration and plumps skin thanks to hyaluronic acid.
• Reduces the look of dullness and uneven patches over time.
• Lightweight and ideal for layering with other skincare products.

How to Use

Apply a few drops to cleansed skin in the evening, ideally no more than once per day. First use it after water-based serums, then follow with your moisturizer. In addition, always apply SPF during the day to protect your newly exfoliated skin. Therefore, start slowly (every other day) if your skin is sensitive.

Ingredients Overview

This serum combines 5% lactic acid with purified Tasmanian pepperberry extract and hyaluronic acid. As a result, it helps calm any potential irritation while boosting hydration.
