What Is Glycolic Acid Cream 12%?
Glycolic acid cream 12% is a high-strength alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) treatment designed to exfoliate the skin, brighten tone, and improve visible signs of aging. Glycolic acid is derived from sugarcane and is the most commonly used AHA in skincare. Because it has the smallest molecular size of all AHAs, it penetrates efficiently to support smoother, brighter, clearer-looking skin.
How Glycolic Acid Works
As a chemical exfoliant, glycolic acid dissolves dead skin cells and encourages faster skin renewal.¹ This cream can help fade discoloration, smooth texture, support moisture balance, and refine surface radiance.
People often use this formula to improve dark spots, melasma, fine lines, rough texture, clogged pores, and dull tone.
For more resurfacing support, explore our AHA skincare collection or pair with our vitamin C serum to enhance brightening results.
Why Use Glycolic Acid?
-
Improve pigmentation concerns
-
Brighten sun spots and age spots
-
Support post-acne mark fading
-
Smooth the appearance of fine lines
-
Improve dryness and surface roughness
Because 12% AHA offers deeper exfoliation, many people apply this product to the hands as well, where aging texture is common.
How to Use
Apply a small amount of the cream to clean, dry skin. Start every other night and increase to nightly use as tolerated. Because exfoliation reveals fresh skin, daily sunscreen is essential.
For comfort, pair with a hydrating moisturizer to strengthen the protective barrier. Or if you have sensitive skin, try our less intense version: Glyco 6
Cautions & Sensitivity Notes
Some tingling or mild redness may occur, especially while adjusting to the product. Sensitive skin types should begin slowly and avoid applying to irritated or broken skin.
Daily sun protection is strongly recommended.
