Lactobionic Acid

Lactobionic Acid is a gentle exfoliant derived from milk sugar. Being a polyhydroxy acid (PHA), it provides exfoliation similar to alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs) but with less irritation. It helps to hydrate the skin, improve skin texture, and reduce signs of aging. It is suitable for sensitive skin due to its large molecular size, which limits its penetration and reduces irritation.
