Glycolic Acid Peel 30% At home Peel 30% Glycolic acid will dramatically smooth and even out your skin tone within the first few applications. This 30% Glycolic level strength with a pH of 2.3 provides the safest method of at-home high exfoliations while avoiding the problems of redness and peeling associated with higher levels of glycolic acid. There will be a dramatic reduction in pore size and an evening of skin tone with continual use. It is great for those whose skin has large pores or are dry and mature due to overexposure in the sun. Alpha Hydroxy Acids (AHAs) are acids, derived from plants and fruits. AHAs work by stimulating new growth of skin and collagen by decreasing the bond that holds dead skin cells on the surface. This gradual process allows for dead cells to be removed, leaving behind a layer of smoother and softer skin, while unclogging pores and thus decreasing the ability of bacteria to grow. Note: our Glycolic Peel uses Witch Hazel, instead of SD alcohol [which is found in most GA products] because it is derived from natural sources.
