What is AHA Clarifier?
AHA Clarifier is an intensive micro-exfoliant formulated with glycolic acid at low pH (3.5) and calming herbal extracts of kola, mate, and guarana. It removes dead skin cells from the surface and pores to improve luminosity and pore appearance. The calming botanical blend minimizes the tingling and redness commonly associated with high-percentage glycolic acid.
Who it’s for
Ideal for acne-prone skin and for experienced AHA/glycolic users with no history of sensitive or reddened skin reactions. Best suited as an intensifying product for those already familiar with glycolic acid use.
