4.4 / 5.0
This formula uses lactic acid and salicylic acid for exfoliation, along with PHA gluconolactone, which is a gentler acid. Vitamin C is also included to help with brightening and replenishment.
This is a good choice for someone looking for a gentle exfoliating treatment that also offers some replenishment. It aims to refine the skin's texture without being overly harsh.
The texture is a gel, designed to be used as a masque. It feels gentle on the skin, but it is still an exfoliant, so it should not be overused, despite the word "daily" in the product name.
This is a solid option if you want a multi-acid treatment that is not too aggressive. Use it a few times a week for best results.
