How it works
The Apple AHA Exfoliating Gel is formulated to enhance skin texture and radiance through mild exfoliation. Malic Acid, Lactic Acid, and Glycolic Acid are key alpha hydroxy acids that work by loosening the bonds between dead skin cells, facilitating their removal and promoting a smoother skin surface. Apple Fruit Extract is included to condition the skin, providing vitamins and nutrients. Panthenol acts as a moisturizing component to maintain skin hydration, while Aloe Vera and Allantoin offer soothing properties that help calm the skin. Succinoglycan contributes to the gel's consistency, aiding in even application. The combination of these ingredients appears to support smoother, brighter-looking skin through regular use.

I bought this exfoliator a month ago and the first thing I noticed (and loved) is how soft it is! I have oily skin so a lot of exfoliators are overly exfoliating and dry out my skin. They also tend to have big clumps of product that are hard on the skin. I really love this one for it's great ingredients, softness and easy use. My skin feels exfoliated without being irritated or dry afterwards.

I tried this as an alternative to body shop peel and like it. Feels gentle but regular use helping skin feel smoother and less dull.

Some people are sceptical when using chemical exfoliators, but this is so kind to skin, doesnt sting or irritate in the slightest and leaves my skin feeling clean and soft, I use this twice a week and have done since it was released, Im still on my first tube so excellent value for money! Will definitely recommend and carry on purchasing for myself.

I've been using this for the past three weeks, and I'm pretty happy with it. The recommended usage is twice a week, but I've been cleansing with it more frequently, will no ill effects, dryness or tight-skin discomfort. It seems to be working well, and a couple of brown pigment spots appear to be fading. Thank you!

Instead of feeling I was "scratching" my skin with granular exfoliators, this AHA Gel is a dream to use, 20-30 seconds massage, rinse and magical results, smooth skin and no red face, fabulous price, win, win!
