AHA Exfoliation
Alpha hydroxy acids, or AHAs, are popular skincare ingredients for surface exfoliation. They help loosen dead skin cells and encourage a smoother-looking complexion.
Glycolic Acid provides exfoliating properties and is commonly used in products targeting uneven skin texture. Lactic Acid also exfoliates while providing humectant properties. Meanwhile, Citric Acid contributes additional AHA exfoliation.
Regular exfoliation can help improve the appearance of dull and uneven-looking skin. It can also help create a smoother skin texture and a more radiant appearance.

How to Use the pH Strips
Always check the pH of your finished peel before use. The supplied pH strips allow you to check whether the formulation falls within the recommended range.
Do not apply a peel with a pH below 3.5 at home. Professionals should administer acid peels with lower pH levels.
Use Triethanolamine to adjust the pH of the finished peel to between 3.5 and 4. Always check the pH after making any adjustment.
