Works for
ExfoliationLactic acid, Microcrystalline celluloseWorks well
“Featuring exfoliating lactic acid, this face mask helps to brighten the skin, while hyaluronic acid works to hydrate the complexion.”
This product can help exfoliate the skin. In other words, it helps break down the bonds between dead cells on the surface of the skin and speed up the skin turnover. Skin often appears softer and brighter after exfoliation, but overdoing it can result in disrupted skin barrier. The following ingredient is doing the exfoliating job in this product: lactic acid.
MoisturizingGlycerin, Sodium lactate + 14 moreWorks
“Brighten and hydrate the face with Soho Skin 24/7 Treatment, a mask that works to lift and energise the complexion.”
This product can help improve hydration of the skin with the two types of ingredients.
The first type is called “humectants”:
these ingredients help attract water.
When humectants are on the surface of the skin, they “pull in” the moisture from the outside environment, or from
within deeper layers of the skin. The following ingredients in this product do the job:
glycerin, glycogen.
This product also contains ingredients called “occlusives”. They help reduce the speed with which our skin loses moisture to the outside environment. These ingredients also help soften the upper layer of the skin, so it feels less tight and nicer to the touch. The following ingredients in this product do the job: simmondsia chinensis seed oil, squalane.
Anti-agingLactic acid, Lactococcus ferment lysate + 3 moreMay help
“A natural ferment acts to lift and smooth, while magnesium and ATP work to detoxify.”
This product contains lactic acid. This ingredient might be able to help reduce and prevent fine lines and wrinkles, improve skin elasticity and firmness, but there is not enough evidence that it actually works.
Evens skin toneSide benefit · Lactic acid, Ascorbyl tetraisopalmitateWorks well
This product can help reduce hypepigmentation and even out the skin tone because it contains the following effective ingredients: lactic acid
Keep in mind that you would need to apply any topical skincare targetted at hypigmentation consistently for a couple of months to get a result. No topical skincare product can help get rid of hyperpigmentation (including post-acne marks and age spots) instantly.

Ingredient callouts
- This product contains acids (lactic acid 2.00% - 3.00%). Their concentration is low, and they will not have a strong exfoliating effect. Instead, they work to support the skin natural acid mantle and to attract water (as humectants). Lactic acid is particularly good in attracting water to the upper layer of the skin and improving the skin barrier.
- Humectants (sodium acetylated hyaluronate 0.15% - 0.50%, glycogen 0.15% - 0.50%, sodium hyaluronate 0.15% - 0.55%, lactic acid 2.00% - 3.00%, sodium lactate 2.60% - 3.90% and glycerin 3.80% - 5.70%). These ingredients help attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve the skin hydration.
Price
The product retails from 72.00£ up to 516.00£ in the United Kingdom and for 110.00$ in the United States.
