Lactic Acid Plus

This non-abrasive exfoliant uses a 10% food-grade Lactic Acid and a natural base of algin and aloe vera to effectively dissolve dead skin cells, reduce blemishes, fine lines, and unclog pores, while maintaining healthy, hydrated skin. 

Ideal for flaky, dull, and oily skin types.

Key Ingredients:

• Lactic Acid: The most gentle type of AHA, lactic acid reduces the incidence of comedones by deep cleaning pores and rejuvenating skin. Reduces the appearance of facial lines by stimulating Collagen production, without dehydrating or over-sensitizing the skin.
• Algae + Aloe Vera base: Helps to hydrate skin + reduce sensitivity.

• Evenly spread (don't rub) 2-3 pumps over clean, dry skin, avoiding the eye and lip areas.
• Leave on between 10-15 minutes to exfoliate and brighten.
• Use 1x-2x per week in the evening.

 Removal:

• Option 1. Remove by rinsing with cool water and follow with your regular evening skincare routine.
• Option 2. After 10-15 minutes, apply moisturizer and/or oil over the Lactic Acid and leave on overnight.
• Note: The acid will be mostly neutralized by the oil/moisturizer, but this application does provide a deeper exfoliation and may not be suitable for highly sensitive skin. 

• Some tingling may be felt upon application but if skin starts to burn, remove immediately with cool water.
• Avoid applying to freshly shaved skin or 'open' skin of any kind.
• For thick or very congested skin, switch between using a manual scrub and Lactic Acid.
• Can be used more frequently as a spot treatment.
• Always follow with an SPF the next day.
• Used to treat flakiness, blemishes, blackheads and ingrown hairs.

Precautions:

Use only as directed. Avoid contact with the eyes. If irritation persists, discontinue use and consult a physician. It is recommended that prior to exposure to the sun, users cover areas where AHAs have been applied with sunscreen. Contact of the product with the skin must be of limited frequency or duration.
