Beginners Exfoliating Serum - 5% Lactic Acid + 1.5% Probiotic

Why is this different?

A rare combination of Lactic acid and Probiotic  in lactic acid exfoliating serum works effectively on skin texture, skin tone and brightens the skin, along with improving the skin barrier. There is added Hyaluronic Acid to provide hydration to the skin. This exfoliating and hydrating combo works well to gently exfoliate the upper layer of skin, while hydrating the skin. The less concentration of AHA and probiotic is perfect for people with sensitive or dry skin.

How Does it Work on the Skin?

• 5% Lactic Acid (AHA) is a humectant that lightly exfoliates the upper skin layer to provide an even skin tone and smooth skin texture
• 1.5% Probiotics (Lactococcus Ferment Lysate) fights microbes and foreign particles and also balances skin pH and hydration.
• 1% Hyaluronic Acid hydrates the skin and gives a subtle glow to the skin

How to use?

1. Apply 2-3 drops on to the skin after cleansing.
2. Dab until the entire product is absorbed into the skin.
3. Use of moisturiser and sunscreen is compulsory after using this product.
4. Preferably to be used during the evening.
5. Use upto 3-4 days a week.
