Manufacturing company and product description: Lactic acid 5% + Hyaluronic acid (HA) Light superficial peeling formulation with lactic acid. Lactic acid is an alpha hydroxy acid that exfoliates the skin. This 5% formulation provides very mild exfoliation and is supported by pure Tasmanian pepper, known for reducing signs of inflammation and sensitivity often associated with exfoliation. This formulation contains a studied Tasmanian pepper derivative to help reduce irritation related to acid use. This derivative is plant-based and may vary in color seasonally, which might be noticeable in the formulation from time to time. More details: The pH of this formulation is approximately 3.8. Lactic acid has a dissociation constant (pKa) of 3.8, which is the most important factor to consider when formulating acid-containing products. The dissociation constant indicates acid availability. When the pKa is close to the pH, there is an ideal balance between salt and acidity, increasing acid effectiveness and reducing irritation. Higher pH numbers in this case will increase salt, which paradoxically makes the formulation more irritating than if it were more acidic. Note: While lactic acid can provide quick visible benefits, generally indirect skin exfoliation methods are preferred over direct forms like this formulation due to potential irritation and sensitivity associated with acids.
