Pro Lift Mandelic Glow Serum

Belongs to the second generation of alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs). They stimulate the shedding of damaged, pigmented cells from the skin's surface and improve skin texture, tone, and natural radiance. Compared to glycolic acid, mandelic acid has a higher molecular weight, which allows for slow penetration into the stratum corneum. This makes mandelic acid optimally tolerated; it does not cause irritation or itching like other AHAs. Mandelic acid is generally well tolerated even by sensitive skin types. Mandelic acid acts as a biological exfoliator and also has excellent sebum-regulating, antibacterial, and antimicrobial properties. It is successfully used to treat large-pored, aging skin (photoaging), melasma, hyperpigmentation, acne vulgaris, rosacea, and folliculitis.

is a colorless, odorless oily liquid derived from olive oil. Squalane, in its unsaturated form (squalene), is an essential component of the skin's natural hydrolipid film and is therefore particularly skin-friendly. We use the saturated form, which is resistant to oxidation and heat. Squalane has moisturizing properties, spreads easily, and provides a silky skin feel. Because of its rapid absorption, it acts as a guide for other active ingredients to penetrate the skin.

is a natural skin moisture regulator with antimicrobial properties.

is a weak organic acid with various, pH-dependent cosmetic effects. It is a good moisturizer; the Natural Moisturizing Factor (NMF) consists of approximately 8% lactic acid. As a component of the skin's acid mantle, lactic acid regulates the skin's physiological pH. It belongs to the alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs) and has mild keratolytic, also known as a corneal dissolving, properties. Lactic acid gets its name from the fact that it was first discovered in milk.
