Its molecule, the smallest in the AHA family (76 Da), effectively penetrates the stratum corneum to dissolve the bonds between corneocytes, accelerate epidermal renewal, and unlock the skin's natural radiance. At 10%, it offers significant exfoliation without reaching the intensity of professional peels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCos De Baha's G Serum is an exfoliant to be gradually incorporated into a nightly routine. With only twelve ingredients—including 10% glycolic acid as the main active—the formula is transparent and free of distractions. Arginine (a basic amino acid) is added to buffer the pH, allowing for a gradual release of the acid and better skin tolerance. Sodium hydroxide finalizes the pH adjustment. Botanical extracts (Camelia, Edelweiss, Purslane, Momordica) provide a secondary soothing effect.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eApply 1 to 2 drops to dry face and neck, after cleansing and toning, only in the evening—1 to 2 times a week maximum. Start with one application per week and gradually increase according to tolerance. Do not apply to damp skin—water dilutes the acid and can unexpectedly increase penetration. As glycolic acid is photosensitizing, use is strictly nocturnal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSPF 50+ sunscreen is mandatory every morning throughout the period of use, including on days without serum—glycolic acid durably increases skin sensitivity to UV.

Niacinamide complements this action by regulating sebum and strengthening the barrier.
