(LORI) Alpha
Hydroxy Acid 
What is Alpha Hydroxy Acid? Facial cosmetics based on sour milk have been used since ancient
Egyptian times, a period of some 5000 years. The main active ingredients are believed to
be the Alpha-Hydroxy Acids, predominantly lactic acid and its derivatives. Alpha-Hydroxy Acids (AHAs) are naturally occurring
substances isolated from a variety of sources, such as sour milk, sugar cane, plants,
marine sources, and other fruits, (fruit acids). Their forms typically are, ascorbic,
glycolic, lactic, malic, tartatic and other structurally similar acids. They perform a number of functions at the level of the
stratum corneum (epidermis) on the skin뭩 surface. One of the benefits of Alpha Hydroxy Acids are they increase
Collagen levels and skin thickness. Intensive
research has identified lactic acids, particularly the L-form as one of the most effective
forms of AHA. Perhaps not surprisingly, this occurs naturally in the body. Main uses: Skin exfoliation, skin cell renewal, facial acne, reduction of age
spots, and anti-ageing.
