Specifications

PHA 5% Exfoliating Lip Serum is a gentle chemical-based exfoliator for lips with 5% gluconolactone and 1.5% alpha hydroxy acids to smooth and hydrate lips. Gluconolactone is a polyhydroxy acid (PHA) that works to dissolve the structures that hold dead skin cells together. Due to their larger molecular weight, PHAs work on the surface of the skin to offer mild exfoliation, making them suitable for sensitive skin.
