Gentle Resurfacing Serum

An uneven and dull complexion is often caused by an accumulation of dead skin on the skin's surface. This lactic acid serum removes dead skin cells for a smoother, more even skin tone. (Please read the precautions before use).

  • Precautions

    This lactic acid serum contains an alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) that can increase your skin's sensitivity to the sun and increase the possibility of sunburn. Be sure to use sunscreen, wear sun-protective clothing, and limit sun exposure when using this product for at least one week after use. Avoid contact with eyes. In case of contact, rinse throughouly with water. If you experience discomfort, discontinue use of the lactic acid serum.

  • Recyclable glass bottle

    Product includes a glass bottle, glass pipette and recyclable Polypropylene (PP) ring.

  • The 2 main active ingredients of this serum

    Lactic acid 10%:

    Lactic acid is known for its exfoliating effects on the superficial layers of the skin. This type of AHA helps eliminate dead skin cells from the epidermis to make facial skin smoother, brighter, and more uniform. Lactic acid's molecules are larger than glycolic acid's molecules. This means its able to work more on the skin's surface since it doesn't penetrate the skin as deeply, making it less irritating for sensitive skin. Lactic acid is therefore a good alternative to skin that has a low tolerance to glycolic acid products.

    Acerola extract: Acerola extract is known for its antioxidant properties that work to combat free radicals responsible for a dull complexion.

All your frequently asked questions about Gentle Resurfacing Serum — with 10% Lactic Acid + Acerola Extract

How to apply the lactic acid serum

Apply 3 to 4 drops of the lactic acid serum to your face exclusively in the evening. Do not use in the morning, do not expose yourself to the sun after applying it, and limit sun exposure for one week after incorporating it into your routine. The first few uses may cause slight redness while your skin gets used to lactic acid. These effects will diminish after several uses. We recommend regulraly applying the lactic acid serum for 4 weeks for optimal effects.

Is this serum suitable for your skin type?

The lactic acid serum is suitable for oily, dry, and combination skin. Less abrasive than glycolic acid, lactic acid is better tolerated by the skin. However, we still recommend testing the product by applying it around the hollow of your elbow and observing it for 24 to 48 hours to see if it causes any reaction.

Is it possible to use this serum alongside the Exfoliating Serum Glycolic Acid 10% or the Imperfections Serum with Bakuchiol 1%?

These two serums should not be used together, as stated in the usage precautions. It can be combined with bakuchiol.

How often is it recommended to use this product? Every night or every other night?

This serum can be applied every night or every other night, depending on existing products in the routine and skin type.

Can this be used on its own without a moisturiser afterwards?

The serum does not replace a cream; it is recommended to use a moisturiser after the serum to prevent skin irritation.

Should the product be rinsed off or left on the skin before applying a moisturiser?

Serums are not rinsed off, so a cream can be applied once the serum is absorbed by the skin.

Is it necessary to exfoliate before using a peel?

It is not recommended, as it may sensitise the skin. The serum already provides chemical exfoliation, so additional physical exfoliation is unnecessary.

Does this peel cause the skin to peel?

As a peel, it accelerates the skin's natural regeneration process, gently exfoliating the skin.

    I ordered a kit after answering multiple questions, and I felt that it met all of my needs. Not only did it meet my needs, but the products are absolutely amazing to the smell, texture, and the feel on my skin. Just started my routine, but I feel so much more useful and I don’t even want to put make up on but when I do, I don’t even have to use much to keep that youthful glow.

    The typology treatment has transformed my skin. The result is magical: after 15 years of acne, redness, blemishes and large pores, in just one month my skin has never looked better. I can't recommend these products enough. The packaging is soo beautiful too. A routine has never been so pleasant to do.
