About
Lactic Acid 5% + HA is a mild alpha hydroxy acid solution that offers gentle yet effective exfoliation targeted at the skin’s surface. It is supported with purified Tasmanian pepperberry extract, which is a known anti-irritant. This water-based serum is ideal for dry and sensitive skin.
This pH of this formula is approximately 3.8. Lactic Acid has a pKa of 3.8 and pKa is the most important aspect to consider in formulating with acids. pKa implies acid availability. When pKa is close to pH, there is an optimal balance between salt and acidity, optimizing the delivery of the acid form to ensure it provides an effective exfoliation that can be used daily.

Reviews
"Chose the larger size and the finish is clean with no rough edges. It lives in my gym bag now. Customer service was helpful when I had a question."
"Chose the larger size and the sound is clear without any static. Used it during a move and nothing shifted. The box was a little beat up but the item inside was perfect. I'm in Boston, MA. Shipping was quick and the item delivered."
"Picked the red option and the stitching has held up better than expected. It keeps up with my home office setup. Took a minute to snap together, fits great now. Happy with my purchase."
"Chose the stainless version and the fabric is surprisingly breathable. It's been my go-to for morning coffee runs. I'm in Boston, MA. Couldn't ask for more at this price."
"Came earlier than the promised date. Used it for a week of meal prep. Button is a bit stiff at first but loosens up with use. Definitely a repeat customer after this."
"Chose the king size and it does exactly what it's supposed to do. I keep it in the car for road trips. Instructions could be a bit clearer, but I figured it out. Would buy again."
"Got the 2-pack and the cushioning is supportive after hours. I keep it in the car for road trips. Took a minute to snap together, fits great now. No complaints so far."
