Expert Tip for Glycolic Acid

"Glycolic acid is your skin’s secret weapon for a smoother, brighter glow. It gently lifts away dead skin cells, helping to even tone and texture over time. Start slow if you're new to it, just a few times a week after cleansing, and follow up with a good moisturiser to keep your skin happy. And don’t forget SPF the next morning, since glycolic acid can make your skin a little more sun-sensitive."

Frequently Asked Questions

Glycolic acid is known for its ability to gently exfoliate by breaking down the bonds between dead skin cells, helping to smooth texture, brighten tone and reveal a more radiant complexion.

Yes, it can be a great option for breakout-prone skin as it helps to clear pores, reduce congestion and improve the appearance of post-acne marks with regular use.

If you’re just starting out, try using it two to three times a week and gradually increase as your skin builds tolerance. Always follow with a hydrating moisturiser and don’t forget to use SPF during the day.

Sensitive skin types should opt for lower strength formulas or products that pair glycolic acid with soothing ingredients. Always patch test first and introduce slowly into your routine.

Glycolic acid works best after cleansing and before your serum or moisturiser. Avoid using it alongside other strong actives like retinol or vitamin C in the same routine to keep irritation at bay.

Yes, with consistent use glycolic acid can help improve uneven skin tone and reduce the appearance of pigmentation, making it a go-to for dull or uneven skin.

Glycolic acid works on the surface to smooth and brighten, while salicylic acid dives deeper into pores to clear excess oil and prevent breakouts. Both are effective but serve different purposes.

Some products are formulated for daily use, but if you’re new to glycolic acid, we recommend starting a few times a week and seeing how your skin responds.

We always suggest using glycolic acid in your evening routine as it can make your skin more sensitive to sunlight. Make sure to wear SPF the next morning.
