Glycolic Renewal Smoothing Cream – 40g
A texture-refining moisturiser that promotes skin rejuvenation, restoring a visibly renewed appearance to the skin’s surface texture.
WHY IT WORKS
Smooth everything over! This silky, lightweight texture-refining face moisturiser smooths the look of skin and helps create a more even tone. This powerful face moisturiser features a 10% Alpha Hydroxy Acid (AHA) blend of Glycolic and Citric Acids to reduce visible signs of aging such as dark spots, fine lines, wrinkles and dullness. Bonus: this cream is compatible for use with makeup and does not feel greasy or oily!
Glycolic Acid: a natural component of sugar cane that normalises the skin’s exfoliation process, refining the appearance of pore size and smoothing the look of fine lines and wrinkles as it retexturizes skin. Glycolic Acid is known to be the workhorse of the Alpha Hydroxy Acid (AHA) family for those looking to really retexture and refine their skin’s surface. Glycolic Acid is scientifically proven to target skin’s natural filler, plumping and volumising the appearance of skin so that wrinkles appear smoother.
Citric Acid: found naturally in citrus fruits and is a powerful Alpha/Beta Hydroxy Acid (AHA/BHA) that has antioxidant and corrective antiaging effects, helping to minimize the visible signs of photodamage. This AHA/BHA gives the added benefit of being a powerful antioxidant to help protect skin against the visible signs of oxidative stress and make skin appear more youthful.

Pro Tip: Don't forget the SPF! When using an exfoliating regimen like The Resurface Collection, sunscreen is an essential part of a healthy skin routine and can help fend off future skin damage as well as help prevent skin cancers. Apply sunscreen liberally 15 minutes before sun exposure and reapply at least every 2 hours.
