GLYCOLIC ACID CREAM

Beauty Cave Cosmetics Glycolic Acid Cream is a skincare product that skincare companies have worked on around glycolic acid, an alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) that is commonly found in skincare products used to exfoliate the surface of the skin. Glycolic acid is effective at fixing the surface layer of skin, which is why it is one of the most common ingredients in anti-aging skin products used to enhance the skin’s appearance and texture. Beauty Cave Cosmetics stock includes Glycolic Acid Cream in its line of face creams and provides cosmetic products for third-party and private labeling.

How It Works?

The glycolic acid is an alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA) that acts primarily on the superficial layers of the skin. It assists in liberating the grip of dead skin cells and promotes their natural shedding. This can make the skin smoother and over time enhance the surface texture.

Important Precautions

• Do not get eyes and mucous membranes.
• Glycolic acid can be sensitizing and may irritate on first application.
• Avoid using it on broken, irritated, or extremely sensitive skin, unless your skin care advisor says otherwise.
