How does it differentiate from other AHAs:
Lactic acid is a powerful ingredient for skincare, providing gentle and effective exfoliation. It’s larger than other acids like glycolic or salicylic which means it can’t penetrate as deeply – but this also makes it an ideal choice for most skin types especially those with sensitive skin who need to avoid irritation Its milder action on the surface of your complexion helps smooth away dead cells while keeping the pH balance of your skin barrier intact
