Everything you need to know about Q+A Apple AHA Exfoliating Gel

Overview

What it is

The Apple AHA Exfoliating Gel is a skincare product formulated with a blend of alpha hydroxy acids including Malic Acid, Lactic Acid, Glycolic Acid, and extracts from apple fruit. The product is designed to gently exfoliate the skin surface, promoting a smoother and more radiant appearance.

Key ingredients and their functions

  • Malic Acid - exfoliating agent
  • Lactic Acid - exfoliating agent
  • Glycolic Acid - exfoliating agent
  • Pyrus Malus (Apple) Fruit Extract - skin conditioning
  • Panthenol - moisturizing agent
  • Aloe Barbadensis (Aloe Vera) Leaf Juice Powder - soothing agent
  • Allantoin - soothing agent
  • Succinoglycan - thickening agent

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.

Nice exfoliator

I was worried this would be too harsh on my skin but it isnt at all. Very gentle on my skin and skin feels refreshed and revitalised. Only issue is it doesnt smell of apples.

Amazing & a new constant addition to my routine!

This is my first product from Q&A and I am so impressed. This is a lovely lightweight gel but you can feel it working on your skin within seconds! Its made my complexion much clearer and smother using 2-3 times a week, and I wouldnt be without it now. Cant wait to replace other parts of my routine with Q&A products!
