Product summary

"Functionalab - Glycolic Acid 5% Night Cream" is effective for: Exfoliation, Moisturizing, Evens skin tone and Anti-aging

Ingredient callouts

  • Exfoliating acids (glycolic acid 4.80% - 7.30%). In this concentration, they will have a noticeable exfoliating effect. They can also have an anti-aging effect and stimulate collagen production in a long-run.
  • We like that this moisturizer contains peptides (acetyl dipeptide-1 cetyl ester 0.35% - 0.85%). There are many different kind of Peptides and they are naturally present in our skin. They all are a combination of aminoacids. Some of them work as natural antibiotics, promote wound-healing and production of collagen. The science is still not settled on how effective Peptides are in skincare, but it is very likely that they have a benefit. Peptides might help restore the skin barrier and fight the signs of aging. At the very least, Peptides work as humectants: they attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve its hydration.
