Lactic
Acid 10% + HA is an alpha hydroxy acid solution that offers effective
exfoliation targeted at the skin’s surface. It is supported with purified
Tasmanian pepperberry
extract, a known anti-irritant. This water-based serum is ideal for dry skin.
The
pH of this formula is approximately 3.8. Lactic Acid has a pKa of
3.8 and pKa is
the most important aspect to consider in formulating with acids. pKa
implies acid availability. When pKa is
close to pH, there is an optimal balance between salt and acidity, optimizing
the delivery of the acid form to ensure it provides an effective exfoliation
that can be used daily.
