Glycolic acid is a type of alpha-hydroxy acid (or AHA) that’s derived from sugar cane.
It joins other acids you might recognize, such as lactic acid (derived from sour milk and purportedly a favorite of Cleopatra’s), tartaric acid (from grapes), and citric acid—which, you might guess, comes from citrus fruits.
But it’s unique. Of the AHAs, glycolic is the simplest in structure and the smallest; it has the lowest molecular weight.
That small molecular weight means it’s easy for it to penetrate your skin and be super effective.
Glycolic acid is a miracle exfoliant.
It helps shed dead skin cells and reveal the newer, brighter layers underneath by acting on the outermost layer of skin.
But because glycolic acid is so small, it can get deeper into your skin too, where it does some serious work.
Formulas with it help minimize the look of fine lines, discoloration, and dullness so skin looks smoother, fresher, and more radiant.
