Product of the Month: Glycolic 10 Renew Overnight

Glycolic acid is gentler, and it offers a similar array of benefits including:
Improving skin texture: The glycolic acid in the serum helps to dissolve the bonds between dead skin cells, allowing them to be gently sloughed off. This can help improve skin texture and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Brightening: Glycolic acid can also help brighten the skin by reducing the appearance of dark spots and hyperpigmentation.
Unclogging pores: By removing dead skin cells, glycolic acid can help unclog pores, reducing the likelihood of breakouts and promoting a clearer complexion.
Stimulating cell turnover: The exfoliating action of glycolic acid stimulates cell turnover, which can help promote a more youthful-looking complexion.
It is important to note that it is still recommended to start using glycolic acid slowly and gradually increase the frequency of use. Additionally, it is important to protect the skin from further damage by using a broad-spectrum sunscreen.
