Ingredients List & Actives Profiles

You shouldn’t need a degree in chemistry to take care of your skin. But, to be clear, someone needs the degree.

Glycolic Acid (AHA)

30% Glycolic Acid

Glycolic acid is the smallest and mightiest molecule of the AHA family. It takes slightly more time and patience to find the perfect dose of glycolic acid that’s efficacious without irritation. But the results are worth it! Don't listen to us, there's plenty of data to back up its great benefits.

What's a PHA?

30% Gluconolactone

PHA’s are bigger molecules, making them a gentle alternative to AHAs. Despite its gentle nature, gluconolactone has shown benefits in combating the effects of photoaging on skin. Curious about the deets? Learn more here!

AHA + BHA

18% Mandelic Acid

Mandelic acid is the biggest of the AHA molecules (aka. most gentle). This underrated exfoliant comes with some great testing on its ability to tackle oily skin woes and keeping skin smooth and bright.

2% Salicylic Acid

This infamous chemical exfoliant gets its oily skin benefits because of its unique ability to penetrate pores and target congestion and blackheads.
