Medix 5.5 Glycolic + Lactic Face Peel

Smooth texture with leave-on exfoliation

Medix combines glycolic and lactic acids to loosen the dull, rough-feeling layer at the skin’s surface. Instead of polishing with scrub particles, the formula works as a leave-on exfoliating step. This can help skin feel more refined and look more even over time when introduced at a frequency your skin tolerates.

An evening exfoliating step

This formula is used beneath moisturiser at night. Despite the word “peel”, the pictured pack describes a leave-on serum rather than a mask to remove after a set number of minutes. Alongside its AHA blend, the ingredient list includes salicylic acid, apple, pomegranate, green tea and blueberry extracts.

How to use

Apply at night to clean, dry skin, avoiding the eye area, then follow with moisturiser or night cream. Start every other night and increase frequency only if your skin tolerates it. Do not continue through irritation.

Sun protection and precautions

Alpha hydroxy acids can increase sensitivity to sunlight. Use sunscreen and limit sun exposure while using the product and for two weeks afterwards, as stated on this pack. Use only as directed, avoid contact with eyes, and stop immediately if irritation occurs.

Check the full formula before use if you have ingredient sensitivities. Avoid introducing several exfoliating treatments together if you are unsure how your skin will react.
