Description
This gentle polyhydroxy acid (PHA) provides mild exfoliation by removing dead skin cells while simultaneously drawing moisture to the skin's surface. It offers additional benefits as a chelating agent that helps stabilize formulas and improve product performance. With excellent tolerability, it's particularly suitable for sensitive skin types that may not tolerate stronger acids.
