Face Reality Glycolic Acid Serum 10%

This alpha-hydroxy acid serum uses 10% glycolic acid to exfoliate dead skin cells on the surface of the skin and help eliminate blackheads and “pebbles” under the skin (maturation arrest acne), while also keeping further breakouts at bay. Glycolic acid has the smallest molecular weight of all the alpha-hydroxy acids and penetrates the pore more quickly to effectively clear these types of acne.

• Exfoliates
• Effectively dissolves blackheads and bumps under the skin
• Prevents future breakouts
• Improves skin tone and texture
• Can be used as spot treatment

After cleansing and toning, apply 1 pump to face, or affected area, in the evening, layer with your favorite moisturizer. Always be sure to apply SPF in the AM when using this product.

10% Glycolic Serum combines powerful ingredients that exfoliate the skin and improve the appearance of skin tone and texture. This serum is recommended for skin prone to noninflamed acne. It is also recommended for skin that needs a boost up from 5% Glycolic Serum. This serum is appropriate for normal and oily types. May not be suitable for dry or sensitive skin types.

We recommend starting with Face Reality 5% Glycolic Serum. Once you have completed that bottle, if you are still experiencing blackheads and pebbles or excess oil move to the 10% Glycolic Serum. If you are experiencing dry skin or inflammation, do not increase strength. 

Face Reality Glycolic Serums may be layered under mandelic serums, vitamin A correctives, or Acne Med as prescribed by your The Esthetica Acne Specialist.
