Gycolic Gel $58 (Problematic Skin)

This 10% Glycolic Gel brightens skin’s clarity & tone and refines and smooths the complexion.

FOR: All skin types that need to improve the look of fine lines and wrinkles, lighten uneven pigmentation and help unclog your pores. It is a very important step in the External Affairs Acne Line.

USE: First two weeks – apply a light layer all over the face every second morning. Let dry before applying moisturizer or sunscreen. After two weeks increase application to every morning.

If skin becomes too red or flaky then decrease back to every second morning. This is a temporary side affect. Once the flakiness or irritation subsides the skin will be functioning normally and balance will be achieved.

Complimentary Products:

Glyco-BP Cleanser & Dual Action Toner. For Daytime use Oil Free Moisturizer or Oil Free Moisturizer with SPF 15. At Nighttime, use 5%BP Lotion to decrease acne inflammation or Acne Treatment Solution.

Features & Benefits:

• Exfoliates the dead cell layer which reduces dry flaky skin, fine lines, wrinkles, hyper pigmentation, blackheads, whiteheads, and acne.

Key Ingredient:

Glycolic Acid – An Alpha-Hydroxyl Acid compound widely used in treating skin conditions due to its small molecular structure and ability to penetrate the follicles. A low ph glycolic penetrates beyond the stratum corneum and enters the pore openings to dissolve lipids (oil) responsible for corneocyte cohesion.

Lipids act like cellular cement bonding cells to the surface of the skin causing a build up of cellular debris thickening the epidermis.
