Gluconolactone is derived from Corn Sugar and is a Poly Hydroxy Acid (PHA) or second generation Alpha Hydroxy Acid that provides full strength anti ageing, antioxidant benefits without irritation even on sensitive or rosacea type skins and post cosmetic procedures. Gluconolactone has a large molecular size so doesn’t penetrate the skin too quickly or deeply which is why it causes less irritation than an AHA and contains water attracting hydroxyl (pairings of oxygen and hydrogen atoms) groups to hydrate the skin. It strengthens the skins barrier function reducing sensitivity to irritants and skin redness over time. As an antioxidant , Gluconolactone inhibits elastase, preserving healthy tissue and maintaining the skins youthful elasticity, resulting in a smoother texture with diminished clines and wrinkles. The skincare benefits of Gluconolactone include: * Exfoliates and acts as a powerful hydrator * Antioxidant properties maintain skins elasticity * Improves signs of photo ageing (lines, wrinkles, pigmentation) * Refines skin texture without drying * Can be used on the most sensitive and rosacea skins * Can be used around the eyes #skinatfab #gluconolactone #polyhydroxyacids #pha #exuviance #skincare #productknowledge #finesseaestheticsbeauty (at Finesse Aesthetics & Beauty) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_4ZetJpd_3/?igshid=65s7hhuto30p
