Exfoliating Lactic Acid 10% + HA for Normal Skin
Category: the ordinary peeling solution
Lactic Acid is an alpha hydroxyl acid that exfoliates the skin. This 10% formulation offers mild exfoliation and is supported with a purified Tasmanian pepperberry, known to reduce the signs of inflammation and sensitivity often associated with exfoliation. The formula contains a studied Tasmanian Pepperberry derivative to help reduce irritation linked to acid use. This derivative is of plant origin and its color may vary seasonally, which could be apparent in the formula from time to time.
Contraindications: Lactic Acid should not be used on sensitive, peeling, or compromised skin. Please refer to the additional sun protection note and other warnings in the provided Directions.
The pH of this formula is approximately 3.8. Lactic Acid has a pKa of 3.8, and pKa is the most important aspect to consider when formulating with acids. pKa implies acid availability, and when pKa is close to pH, there is an ideal balance between salt and acidity, maximizing the effectiveness of the acid.
