AHA facial peel pads with 10% Citric Acid (CA10)
Description
Exuviance Daily Resurfacing Peel CA10 is a one-step, leave-on daily face peel formulated with 10% Citric Acid (an Alpha Hydroxy Acid, AHA) to lightly exfoliate the skin and provide daily defence against environmental aggressors. The product consists of pre-soaked single-use pads (36 pads per jar; total volume 58 mL/1.9 fl oz) that are wiped over cleansed skin and left on without rinsing. According to the manufacturer, the expert peel solution resurfaces the complexion by gently exfoliating dead surface cells and rough spots to reveal smoother, more radiant, younger-looking skin. This step is positioned as preparing the skin for subsequent skincare, optimising the application of serums and moisturisers and creating a smoother canvas for makeup. The brand highlights the antioxidant power of 10% Citric Acid to help provide everyday defence against visible ageing effects of environmental stressors and states that consumer testing showed 100% of respondents noted smoother texture and more even skin tone after one use (percentage of respondents noting improvement).
