Lactic acid

Lactic acid is is an alpha hydroxy acid, also known as AHA. AHAs are acids derived from foods, such as various fruit, sugarcane, even sour milk, and in cosmetics they are used to care for the skin regeneration, softness and a healthy appearance.
The main function of AHAs is to accelerate natural skin regeneration processes by promoting the cell replacement. Added to products such as cleansers, lotions and peels, lactic acid helps the skin to slough off its old cells, thus improving skin’s texture and revealing a glowing, healthy and youthful skin hidden underneath.
