Glycolic Citrus Cleanser
$35
What it is
This exfoliating, cleansing gel removes dead, dull skin buildup to pave the way for your serums and moisturizers to work more effectively. Improves the appearance of skin texture and leaves skin looking smoother, clearer and brighter.
How it works
As your skin ages, cellular turnover slows. This can lead to a buildup of dead skin, which accentuates wrinkles and can cause skin to appear older than it actually is. This deeply exfoliating cleanser uses time-tested glycolic acid to slough away dead skin buildup and reveal the healthier skin underneath. We balance the effects of the exfoliation with glycerin and sodium PCA, powerful humectants and skin calming ingredients, and hyaluronic acid to help support the natural barrier and help retain moisture. As an added benefit, the removal of dead skin allows the products that follow to more easily absorb and work more efficiently.
