The Pestle & Mortar Exfoliate Glycolic Acid Exfoliating Solution is designed for individuals seeking to brighten dull skin and clear persistent clogged pores through professional-grade chemical exfoliation. Its primary benefit is a visibly smoother, more rejuvenated complexion achieved by accelerating cell turnover; however, users with highly sensitive skin should exercise caution, as glycolic acid can cause irritation if used too frequently or without adequate sun protection.

This may be an initial 'purging' phase as pores clear; if it persists for more than two weeks, discontinue use.
To begin using the solution, perform a patch test on a small area of your skin to check for adverse reactions. Once confirmed safe, apply to clean, dry skin. This product is compatible with most non-acidic moisturizers, which should be applied afterward to lock in hydration. Store the bottle in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight to maintain the integrity of the formula. Always remember to apply broad-spectrum SPF the following morning, as glycolic acid increases skin sensitivity to sunlight.
