What is Glycolic Acid?
Alpha Hydroxy Acids are a group of naturally occurring acids which are derived from certain plants and fruits. The
most commonly used form of AHA is Glycolic Acid, which comes from the sugar cane.
How is it used? Recent studies have shown that Glycolic Acid can be used in specific skin care programs to combat:

How does it work?
Glycolic Acid (GA) works by stimulating new growth of skin and collagen by decreasing the bond that holds dead skin
cells on the surface. This allows dead cells to be removed gradually, leaving behind a layer of smoother and softer
skin. GA also helps to unclog pores and thus decreasing the tendency for acne to develop. During a GA peel, a
solution of glycolic acid is applied to your skin for a brief period of time, and then washed away.
This solution causes several layers of the Stratum Corneum (the outer layer of skin) to dry up and peel off gradually
over a period of several days. GA weakens linkage of cells in the outer layers of dry skin, allowing the normal
shedding process to occur. It also increases the flexibility of the outer layer of the skin and may increase the barrier
function. When the older layers have peeled off, they expose a new layer of undamaged skin! GA Exfoliators
gradually remove dead skin layers, therefore bringing out the new healthy skin.

Do I need a prep solution?
Probably not... Just be sure to start your peel with well-cleansed, well-rinsed, and well-dried skin. The main objective
is to remove any soap (high pH) product before applying the GA (low pH), so you don't risk diluting or neutralizing the
GA before your peel. You might want to use a mild astringent or alcohol after you cleanse to be sure.

What about a neutralizer?
You probably already own it. But, we send you a Starter, so you can use your product immediately! The main
objective here is to stop the action of the acid (low pH). How do you stop the action of an acid? With an alkaline
solution (high pH). Baking Soda is alkaline. So, when the time is up on your peel, just place a pinch of baking soda
into your palm, add a few drops of water, apply, then rinse.

How do I use this product?
It is recommended that you use the GA once weekly for 6 weeks, then rest for 2 weeks; and after the 2 week rest,
you may start another 6 week cycle. Your GA comes with complete, easy-to-read, and easy-to-follow instructions that
we will send to you in advance so you can be ready.

Which one should I use - What are the differences?
If you haven't used GA before, it is best to start with the 30%, especially if you have fair &/or sensitive skin. Unless
you are quite experienced & proficient at using GA, do not buy the 70% for use on the face. It's great for hands,
elbows, & the bottom of your feet, however.

What are you putting on your skin?
Exclusive info here about - Percentage, pH, and Purity - the qualifying properties of Glycolic Acid. Percentage: The
percentage difference is the amount of glycolic in the solution - in other words, the higher the percentage of glycolic,
the less inert ingredients in the product. So, the product gets really strong when it reaches 70%... very strong
indeed.
pH: Buffering adjusts the pH of the product. Our 30% and 50% are both lightly buffered and have a pH of 2.6
(strong acid), 70% is not buffered and has a pH of 0.6 (VERY strong acid).
Purity: Glycolic Acid is a generic name for the base product. It comes in two grades - and the grade defines the
purity.
First, there's the Cosmetic grade. This is the only kind you want on your skin. And it is NOT cheap!
Next, there's the tech grade. What is Technical grade? It's floor cleaner. And, it is cheap!
We buy Cosmetic Grade Product ONLY, in bulk, then we repackage it. This is the same thing the big names do. They
buy the GA, package it, and sell it - with fancy packaging and a very high price. It's much like Aspirin (acetylsalicylic
acid, aka ASA). Aspirin is Aspirin. You can call it Bayer or Norwich, but it's all aspirin - & it's all basically the same.
Glycolic Acid is Glycolic Acid - all the same, except for the qualifying properties - Percentages, PH, & Purity - and OURS
is definitely Purified. Ours is a high quality product I use myself & provide to friends & family. We purchase the best
product available, and we pass the savings along to you.
Price wars increase the risk of inferior products hitting the market... we won't play the price war game at your
expense!
This glycolic acid product is by far the best solution I've found for all sorts of troubled skin. It is not cheap, though it is
the least expensive cosmetic grade product available in anything less than a 55 gallon drum. We provide this
information for educational purposes only - to enable informed decision-making. We sincerely hope all who sell
glycolic acid and all who buy it will benefit from these truths.
