Balance is key when it comes to exfoliation; Excessive use of powerful exfoliating acids every day can often lead to skin sensitization and premature skin aging. PHAs are composed of larger molecules than other exfoliating acids, which means they don't penetrate as deeply into the skin and instead work on the skin's surface. This makes PHAs the perfect match for those with sensitive skin, who want to achieve true daily exfoliation while keeping their skin barrier healthy.

1. Gluconolactone is a high-performing PHA that breaks down the glue between dead skin cells so they are easily shed to reveal that covetable, radiant skin surface. Because PHAs are humectant ingredients, they help hydrate the skin while exfoliating for ultimate comfort during and after use.
2. Prickly Pear Extract helps stimulate the activity of natural exfoliation enzymes, returning the skin's exfoliation cycle to a more youthful pace. This again works in combination with vitamin A for all-round skin cell rejuvenation.
3. Aloe vera and acai extract use their soothing properties to reduce visible inflammation and redness while hydrating the skin.

Daily exfoliating PHA tonic with enzyme activator.

5.5% Gluconolactone

A high-performing, water-soluble PHA, gluconolactone converts to gluconic acid to gently exfoliate and hydrate skin, resulting in a visibly more even, smoother skin surface.

​Prickly pear extract

A natural enzyme activator, it helps increase the rate of skin exfoliation and subsequently the rate of cell renewal. This can help improve skin clarity and radiance, as well as the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

​​Aloe Vera

Ideal for reducing skin irritation and improving the skin's moisture-retaining properties, as well as helping prevent free radical damage.

​Acai Extract

It can help reduce inflammation while protecting the skin from free radical damage.

**Proven through independent consumer research on Press & Glow. Tested on 54 participants with sensitive skin for 2 weeks.

“Polyhydroxy acids (PHAs) are a new generation of exfoliating acids. PHAs differ from traditional exfoliating acids because they have more hydroxyl groups (OH) in their molecular structure. More OH groups make the molecule larger, so they penetrate less deeply into the lower layers of the skin. Instead, they work on the skin's surface without disturbing the delicate layers beneath. This ensures optimal skin renewal with minimal irritation. They work by breaking down the 'glue' that binds dull, dead cells to the skin's surface. This helps accelerate cellular turnover, while revealing a visibly brighter, smoother skin complexion. PHAs also have powerful humectant properties, meaning they draw moisture from the air into the skin for increased hydration. This results in a soft, soothing feeling on the skin – without the drying or irritating effects commonly associated with everyday acid toners.”
