AHA Exfoliating Concentrate is a cosmetic-grade multi-acid blend formulated for professional and DIY skincare creators. This ingredient combines several naturally derived AHAs—including glycolic, lactic, citric, and malic acids—to support exfoliating, smoothing, and brightening effects in finished cosmetic products.
Because this is a raw material, it must be diluted into creams, lotions, toners, serums, or wash-off treatments. It is not a ready-to-use serum and should never be applied directly to the skin.
This multi-AHA blend helps formulators create glow-enhancing products that support smoother-looking skin, improved texture, and better absorption of other cosmetic ingredients.
