5 glycolic acid products for your biggest glow-up yet
Your new holy grail
Mastering your skin care routine when you’re dealing with multiple skin concerns is a hefty task. But what if we told you it was possible to treat breakouts, even your skin tone and texture, and exfoliate your way to flawless, glowing skin with a single product? Enter: glycolic acid, your new skin care saviour.
Think of glycolic acid as your key to a clean slate. As part of the alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) family, the gentle exfoliator targets skin concerns like uneven texture, hyperpigmentation and discolouration. If you have oily or acne-prone skin, glycolic acid will be your holy grail skin care staple.
Unlike a physical exfoliant, glycolic acid takes the elbow grease out of the equation, all whilst packing power in its punch. It works on the surface layer of the skin to dissolve the bonds that hold dead skin cells together, making it easier to slough away dead skin cells.
Sound like the perfect ingredient for you? We’ve rounded up the best glycolic acid skin care products to help you on your way to a major glow-up…
