10% Glycolic + Lactic Acid SerumAdvanced Clinicals 10% Glycolic + Lactic Acid Serum 52 ml (1.75 fl oz)

A gel serum for smoother-looking skin

Glycolic acid, lactic acid, salicylic acid and a fruit-acid complex make up the exfoliating blend, with apple extract added. The brand says it targets the look of rough texture and uneven tone, leaving skin looking smoother and more radiant.

Soothing extras and a light feel

Green tea extract and vitamin E are included as antioxidants. The gel absorbs easily without leaving residue, and the brand notes the pH is balanced to get the most from the acids.

What the label says

It is described as dermatologist tested, free from added fragrance, dyes and parabens, and not tested on animals.

How to use

Apply to a cleansed face and neck, avoiding direct contact with the eyes and lips. A slight tingle may occur during the first few uses; start slowly and increase how often you use it only if your skin tolerates it.

Before you choose

This is a leave-on exfoliating serum with a tingle on first uses, so it may not suit very sensitive skin. For external use only. Keep out of reach of children. If irritation develops, stop using it. Avoid direct contact with the eyes. If it gets into the eyes, flush thoroughly with water. If accidentally swallowed, contact a doctor. It contains alpha-hydroxy acids that may increase skin's sensitivity to the sun: use sun cream, wear protective clothing and limit sun exposure while using it and for a week afterwards. US-market product: packaging and label wording may differ from UK versions.
