What acids are used in The Peel range, and what do they do?Updated 3 months ago

The Peel combines several carefully selected acids because each one has a different role. Some focus on dullness and uneven texture, some help clear blocked pores, and others exfoliate more gently while supporting hydration.

  • Glycolic Acid works more deeply within the skin’s surface layers to help speed up renewal, smooth uneven texture and soften the look of fine lines.
  • Lactic Acid works more gently on the surface to lift away dull skin while helping it hold onto moisture, leaving it feeling softer and smoother.
  • Salicylic Acid works inside the pores to break down excess oil and build-up, helping to reduce blackheads and improve the look of visible pores.
  • Gluconolactone has a larger molecule, so it works more gradually. It provides slow and gentle exfoliation while helping the skin stay hydrated and comfortable.
  • Malic Acid and Fruit Acids support the exfoliating action of the formula, helping to refine rough texture and restore radiance.

Together, these acids provide a more complete approach to exfoliation, working across the skin’s surface and within the pores. Every formula is carefully balanced, with each acid used at a controlled level alongside hydrating and soothing ingredients, so the skin feels renewed rather than over-treated.
