    Glycolic Acid Description:

    Glycolic acid is a type of alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) made from sugar cane that can act like a water-binding agent. Glycolic is the most researched and purchased type of alpha hydroxy acid on the market that has all its effects backed up by studies. Glycolic acid can be used as an exfoliant if concentrated properly at 5%. It can help shed dead skin and renew surface skin, improving visible signs of ageing, such as uneven skin tone, sun damage, fine lines, rough or patchy skin, and vastly reduce the size of wrinkles. To obtain all these benefits you will need a leave-on AHA exfoliator which is 5%-10% glycolic acid that is formulated at a pH level of 3-4 and then the product must be rinsed off thoroughly.
