Pros

  • Gentler AHA than glycolic with hydrating hyaluronic acid
  • Effective for brightening and smoothing texture with regular use
  • Works well as a starter acid for those with sensitive or combination skin

Cons

  • Can cause dryness and irritation if layered with multiple actives or used too frequently
  • Potentially aggravates sensitive skin and rosacea, especially without barrier support
  • Needs careful patch testing and gradual introduction to avoid over-exfoliation and redness
