The Lactic Acid 10% + HA serum is formulated to exfoliate the skin gently, improve texture, and reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and uneven skin tone. It combines lactic acid, a type of alpha hydroxy acid (AHA), with hyaluronic acid to provide both exfoliating and hydrating benefits for the skin.
How to Use
1.Patch Test: Before incorporating the serum into your skincare routine, it's advisable to perform a patch test. Apply a small amount of the product to a discreet area of your skin, such as the inner forearm. Wait 24 hours to ensure there's no adverse reaction, such as redness, itching, or irritation.
2.Cleanse Your Skin: Start with a gentle cleanser to remove any dirt, oil, and impurities from your skin. Pat your skin dry with a clean towel.
3.Apply a Small Amount: Dispense a few drops of the Lactic Acid 10% + HA serum onto your fingertips. A little goes a long way with this product, so you only need a small amount.
4.Gently Massage into Skin: Apply the serum to your face and neck, avoiding the eye area. Gently massage the serum into your skin using upward motions until it is fully absorbed. Take care not to apply too much pressure, especially if you have sensitive skin.
5.Allow Absorption: Allow the serum to absorb fully into your skin before applying any additional skincare products. This typically takes a minute or two.
6.Follow with Moisturizer: If needed, follow up with your favorite moisturizer to help lock in moisture and provide additional hydration. This step is especially important if you have dry or dehydrated skin.
7.Use Sunscreen (Daytime): If you're using the Lactic Acid 10% + HA serum in your morning skincare routine, finish with a broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher. Alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs) like lactic acid can increase skin sensitivity to the sun, so sunscreen is essential to protect your skin from UV damage.
8.Frequency: Start by using the serum once or twice a week, gradually increasing frequency as your skin tolerates it. Some individuals may experience mild irritation or tingling, especially when first starting to use AHAs. If irritation occurs, reduce frequency or discontinue use.
9.Nighttime Application: Lactic acid is often used in the evening as part of a nighttime skincare routine due to its exfoliating properties. However, you can use it in the morning as well, as long as you follow up with sunscreen during the day.
10.Gradual Introduction: If you're new to using AHAs or lactic acid, it's essential to introduce the product gradually to allow your skin to adjust. Start with a lower frequency of use and increase gradually as your skin becomes accustomed to it.
