This is an automatic translation

Glycolic acid is an organic acid, also known as hydroxyacetic acid.

It is part of the so-called alpha-hydroxy acids, natural acids derived from foods, also known as fruit acids or AHAs, known for their exfoliating, smoothing and anti-aging action.

By removing the layer of dead cells present on our epidermis, AHAs allow better absorption of active ingredients and functional substances and therefore act as enhancers of our beauty routine.

AHAs offer numerous benefits for the skin: they exfoliate the epidermis, eliminate dead cells, free clogged pores, uniform and smooth the complexion, regenerate the skin and give it a healthier appearance.

In particular, Glycolic Acid derives from sugar cane and has an exfoliating, antioxidant, depigmenting and anti-aging action.

Its molecules that are able to penetrate the deep layers of the skin make glycolic acid the most powerful of the AHAs but also the least delicate and the most easily irritating.
