THE ORDINARY The Sustainable Edit Lactic Acid 5% + HA 2%

Description: Lactic Acid is an alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) that offers superficial exfoliation to enhance smooth skin texture and radiance.

Key Benefits:

• Supported by the addition of purified Tasmanian pepperberry extract to offer a comforting benefit to the skin in an effort to reduce sensitivity that is associated with acid use
• An ideal balance between salt and acidity, maximizing the efficacy of the acid and reducing the potential of developing irritation
• The pH of this formula is approximately 3.8 and Lactic Acid has a pKa of 3.8

How to Use: Apply once per day, ideally in the PM. Can be diluted with other treatments to reduce strength until skin develops tolerance. Avoid contact with eyes. If irritation persists, discontinue use and consult a physician. Caution: This product contains an alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) that may increase your skin's sensitivity to the sun and particularly the possibility of sunburn. Use a sunscreen, wear protective clothing, and limit sun exposure while using this product and for a week afterwards. Lactic Acid should not be used on sensitive, peeling or compromised skin. Please refer to the additional sun protection note and other warnings in provided directions. Note: While Lactic Acid can result in quick visible benefits, we generally suggest indirect forms of skin exfoliation in favour of direct forms such as this formula due to potential inflammation and sensitivity associated with acids.
