Collistar Pure Actives Glycolic Acid is an exfoliating serum that contains a cocktail of glycolic, mandelic, and gluconic acids.

Product Description

Collistar Pure Actives Glycolic Acid is a highly-concentrated serum that contains glycolic acid in its purest form. Extracted from sugar cane, glycolic acid is a popular ingredient in skincare, due to its incredible ability to slough off dead skin cells. As a result, this star ingredient reveals bright, beautiful skin underneath. Commonly used by dermatologists for peeling treatments, glycolic acid may also be used on a daily basis to keep a radiant complexion. This particular serum contains not only glycolic acid, but also mandelic and gluconic acids, which contribute to this renewing effect. Results are visible after just one application, as the skin emerges looking both brighter and smoother. As this product works as a gradual and non-aggressive peeling, results will be most noticeable after four weeks of use.
