An Alpha Hydroxy Acid (AHA) that exfoliates dead surface skin cells to improve brightness, texture, and overall skin clarity.

Alpha Arbutin (2%):
A brightening ingredient that helps reduce the appearance of hyperpigmentation, post-acne marks, and uneven skin tone by targeting excess melanin production.

FAQ

Q: Will the Glycolic Toner increase sun sensitivity?
A: Yes. Glycolic Acid can make skin more sensitive to sunlight, so daily sunscreen use is essential while using this product.

Q: Can I use this set every day?
A: The serums can be used daily. If you are new to Glycolic Acid, begin using the toner a few times weekly before increasing frequency.

Q: Does the Caffeine Solution work for all dark circles?
A: It works best on puffiness and pigmentation-related dark circles but may be less effective on shadows caused by deeper under-eye hollows.

Q: Is Alpha Arbutin suitable during pregnancy?
A: It is generally considered gentler than hydroquinone, but consulting a healthcare professional before using new actives during pregnancy is recommended.

Q: Can I combine this set with Vitamin C?
A: Yes, Alpha Arbutin pairs well with Vitamin C. However, avoid using direct Vitamin C in the same routine as Glycolic Acid to reduce the risk of irritation.
