Benefits

12% Glycolic Acid performs a gentle chemical exfoliation, stimulating healthy cell turnover to improve skin’s tone, texture and radiance. Tea Tree Oil’s excellent decongestant and anti-inflammatory properties make it ideal for oily and combination skin.

Key Ingredients

Alpha-Hydroxy Acids

AHAs work in the skin’s lower layers to exfoliate, hydrate and normalise, leaving skin notably firmer, bright and clear.

Full Ingredients List

Aqua, Ammonium Lauryl Sulfate, Glycolic Acid, Sodium Hydroxide, Glyceryl Stearate, Sodium Laureth Sulfate, Cetearyl Alcohol, Sorbitol, Cocamidopropyl Betaine, Phenoxyethanol, Caprylyl Glycol, Xanthan Gum, Magnesium Aluminum Silicate, Melaleuca Alternifolia Leaf Oil, Sorbic Acid, Sodium Benzoate.

How To Use

Use at night, no matter how tired you are. We recommend first removing your makeup and then using Glycolic Cleanser 12% as your second cleanse to remove daily grime, sunscreen, and makeup. Work a pea-sized amount between wet hands and lather over your face, avoiding the eye area, for no more than 30 seconds. Rinse thoroughly with warm water and gently pat dry. Follow with your serum and/or moisturiser.

Skintel/Pro Tips

This cleanser can also be used as a targeted spot treatment; you dab a little directly onto a pimple or breakout with a cotton tip and leave on overnight. Also great as a detoxifying body wash, you can use it to help address acne on the chest or décolletage or apply it directly onto back breakouts and leave for up to five minutes.

I've been using Skinstitut glycolic scrub to exfoliate for around 15 years now. Doesn't irritate my skin at all. Why change products when something works so well for you for so long?
