What the community says
Pros
- Gentle glycolic acid (7%) delivers noticeable whitehead clearance and texture smoothing
- Popular in the k-beauty community for gradual hyperpigmentation and dullness improvement
- Works well as a second acid step after BHA, avoiding over-exfoliation when used sparingly
Cons
- Can compromise skin barrier if layered too aggressively or combined with retinoids nightly
- Requires strict sunscreen use due to increased photosensitivity
- Only recommended 1-2 times a week to avoid irritation, which slows visible results
