How we score →Yay
5 experts · Moderate agreementWhat the gurus are saying
Lactic acid is the headline, and reviewers keep praising how gentle this exfoliant feels. Several say it is unscented, layers well under makeup and does not pill, thanks to its ceramides. The one thing to keep in mind: one guru feels lactic acid's research trails glycolic's, so glycolic fans may want to weigh that. Newcomers may want to start a few nights a week and build toward daily use over about six weeks.

They over time can help thicken skin up which if you know the older you get your skin gets a little bit thinner more delicate less collagen and glycolic and also lactic acid has been shown to help firm up skin and help thicken it a little bit.”
