Expert Tip for Glycolic Acid

"Glycolic acid is your skin’s secret weapon for a smoother, brighter glow. It gently lifts away dead skin cells, helping to even tone and texture over time. Start slow if you're new to it, just a few times a week after cleansing, and follow up with a good moisturiser to keep your skin happy. And don’t forget SPF the next morning, since glycolic acid can make your skin a little more sun-sensitive."

Frequently Asked Questions

What does glycolic acid do for your skin?

Glycolic acid is known for its ability to gently exfoliate by breaking down the bonds between dead skin cells, helping to smooth texture, brighten tone and reveal a more radiant complexion.

Is glycolic acid suitable for acne-prone skin?

Yes, it can be a great option for breakout-prone skin as it helps to clear pores, reduce congestion and improve the appearance of post-acne marks with regular use.

How often should I use glycolic acid?

If you’re just starting out, try using it two to three times a week and gradually increase as your skin builds tolerance. Always follow with a hydrating moisturiser and don’t forget to use SPF during the day.

Can glycolic acid work for sensitive skin?

Sensitive skin types should opt for lower strength formulas or products that pair glycolic acid with soothing ingredients. Always patch test first and introduce slowly into your routine.

When should I apply glycolic acid in my routine?

Glycolic acid works best after cleansing and before your serum or moisturiser. Avoid using it alongside other strong actives like retinol or vitamin C in the same routine to keep irritation at bay.

Does glycolic acid help fade dark spots?

Yes, with consistent use glycolic acid can help improve uneven skin tone and reduce the appearance of pigmentation, making it a go-to for dull or uneven skin.

What’s the difference between glycolic and salicylic acid?

Glycolic acid works on the surface to smooth and brighten, while salicylic acid dives deeper into pores to clear excess oil and prevent breakouts. Both are effective but serve different purposes.

Can I use glycolic acid every day?

Some products are formulated for daily use, but if you’re new to glycolic acid, we recommend starting a few times a week and seeing how your skin responds.

Should glycolic acid be used in the morning or evening?

We always suggest using glycolic acid in your evening routine as it can make your skin more sensitive to sunlight. Make sure to wear SPF the next morning.
