Ingredient

lactic acid

What it is

An alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA) naturally derived from milk or fermented plant sources — the gentlest common AHA, favored for sensitive or dry skin because it also has humectant (hydrating) properties that glycolic acid lacks.

How it works

Gentler AHA than glycolic; adjunct exfoliant, better for sensitive skin
