One thing worth learning also is the difference between over the counter and medical-grade formulation and its effectiveness, which we will, as you read later in this article.

Let’s start with the basics What is Glycolic Acid? Where does Glycolic acid come from?

Glycolic Acid can come from different sources; one of the most effective is from sugarcane. Yes, Sugarcane, Imagine that!

Now some technical words…

It is also known as Hydroacetic Acid or Hydroxyacetic Acid and is the smallest a-hydroxy Acid, also known as AHA (alpha-hydroxy acids).

Having the smallest molecular size is the optimum AHA able to penetrate the skin deeply and quickly. This is why Glycolic Acid is so effective!

Nowadays, we can’t help but notice when we are at the mall or looking at the numerous skincare products out there the mention of Glycolic Acid or AHA its popularity is due in large part to its effectiveness as a potent skin rejuvenator.

What are the benefits of Glycolic Acid?

Glycolic Acid begins to exfoliate almost immediately upon application given the recipient a healthy new glow to the skin by removing the skin dead cells of the epidermis (the outer layer of the skin).

It also helps you build the thickness of the epidermis the living cells layer making you look radiant and feeling flawless.

Glycolic Acid for Plumped Skin

It will make your skin plumped since it helps your skin increase collagen production and elastin, keeping the skin firmer, looking younger and radiant.

Another tremendous benefit of Glycolic Acid is that it minimizes large pores making your skin look flawless.

Can we use Glycolic Acid For Acne Treatment?

Glycolic Acid is very effective for acne treatment. Acne happens when the pores in your skin are clogged with dead skin cells.
As part of a smart skincare routine, Glycolic Acid with continuous used can lessen the appearance of fine lines & crow’s feet.

So you see why it is so essential to incorporate Glycolic Acid into your skincare regimen! We believe it is a must.

Now let’s explore HOW to use Glycolic Acid?

The X3 Refining Glycolic Pads, is 10% Pure glycolic acid at low pH (3.5), meaning that it is up to 60% more efficient than OTC products.

Best if used at night time, once you don’t want to be in the sun, after using Acid, right? That can cause damage to the skin.

If you have never used Glycolic Acid before it is advisable to start slow, applying on the skin after cleansing, let it sit for 20-30 minutes and rinse it off.

After a week, you can leave on for the entire night.

You will feel a tingly sensation in your skin. Don’t freak out. This is normal; it just means the formulation is working on the skin.

Once you built a tolerance for the X3 Refining Glycolic Pads, you can apply and leave it on overnight.

Extra Sun Protection When using Glycolic Acid

Please note that once you start using Glycolic Acid in your face, you must protect yourself from the sun – It is a must to avoid pigmentation.  I can’t emphasize this enough.

You may experience very mild flakiness if you’re a first time user. It is healthy to think that is your dead skin peeling off! But please, whatever you do, do not remove it. This can also lead to dark spots.

Just leave it alone. It will fall out very soon, and your new skin will show up, making you forget about the flakiness.

Making you radiant and youthful.

Not all the Glycolic Acid skincare products currently being sold in the market are the same and as effective as the X3 Refining Glycolic Pads.
Let me explain…

Uflawless X3 Refining Glycolic Pads is Pure Glycolic Acid.

For example, Glycolic acid products from drugstores and department stores are not as efficient as UFlawless medical-grade formulation.

Usually, the pH levels of these products are much closer to our actual skin Ph level, which is a 6.5.

The higher the pH, the less than optimal results in comparison to medical-grade formulations.

The formulation in our X3 Refining Glycolic Gel is 10% Pure Glycolic Acid at a 3.5 pH. In short, it means 60% more efficiency, with no side effects (flaky, irritated, red skin). Isn’t it amazing! The real results come from here!

Other vital ingredients, to our X3 Refining Glycolic Pads, are  Algae Firming peptides helping to boost collagen production and Mate, Kola & Guarana. Potent botanicals to soothe and calm skin inflammation, prevent acne breakouts leaving your skin healthier and glowing.

When to use Glycolic Acid as part of your skincare routine?

Always as a preventive or to repair damaged skin, especially if you are currently suffering from sagging, aging, weathered skin, acne, blackheads, or dull skin.

If you have a wrinkle-prone skin adding the X3 Clarifying Glycolic Toner to your smart skincare regimen is a must!

Not only will reverse the aging clock, but it will also give you back your fresh, naturally radiant skin. You will feel more confident, bright, and UFlawless.
