This misconception stems from high-concentration AHAs (glycolic, lactic) which, by penetrating deeply into the epidermis, can weaken the barrier and exacerbate reactions on reactive skin. PHAs – polyhydroxy acids – offer a documented alternative: their larger molecular size limits penetration, reducing irritation while maintaining surface exfoliating efficacy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHaruharu Wonder's Centella 3% PHA Gentle Liquid Exfoliating Serum is based on four distinct components. 3% gluconolactone (confirmed on EU packaging) is the main active PHA: it promotes desquamation of corneocytes on the surface, refines texture, and contributes to the reduction of clogged pores. COSMOS-organic orange water (Citrus Aurantium Dulcis Fruit Water, 10% of the formula) provides a natural antioxidant base rich in organic vitamin C. The Anti Sebum P complex – a patented botanical complex including kudzu extract (Pueraria Lobata), longleaf pine extract (Pinus Palustris), Manchurian elm root extract (Ulmus Davidiana), and evening primrose flower extract (Oenothera Biennis) – is positioned by the manufacturer for its contribution to sebum regulation and pore protection. Centella asiatica at 1,000 ppm with its four active fractions supports barrier integrity during treatment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe formula also includes ectoin, an osmoprotective extremolyte documented for its soothing and cell membrane stabilizing properties, and a kombucha ferment (Saccharomyces\/Xylinum\/Black Tea Ferment) to strengthen skin microflora. No quantified efficacy data is published by the manufacturer for this finished product. Tested on sensitive skin. The manufacturer declares a vegan formula.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eApply to clean, dry skin, a maximum of 3 times per week. Can be applied to the entire face or as a targeted treatment on pore-prone areas (T-zone, sides of the nose). Start 1 to 2 times a week for the first few weeks to allow the skin to adapt, then adjust according to tolerance. Always follow with sun protection the next day or in the morning if used at night – PHA, even gentle, slightly increases epidermal sensitivity to UV.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFragrance-free, alcohol-free, silicone-free, paraben-free formula. Suitable for sensitive, reactive, and blemish-prone skin. Due to PHA (gluconolactone), which is classified as an exception to exfoliants not recommended during pregnancy, daily sun protection and usual medical advice are still recommended.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Haruharu Wonder","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53909776728401,"sku":"PD-0450","price":27.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1032\/7094\/1009\/files\/centella_3_PHA_gentle_liquid_exfoliating_serum_120ml_jpg.webp?v=1779912247","url":"https:\/\/paradermia.com\/en\/products\/haruharu-wonder-centella-3-pha-gentle-liquid-exfoliating-serum-120ml-pd-0450","provider":"Paradermia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
