Glycolic and Retinol Pads

Glycolic/Retinol Pads are designed to gently and progressively renew the skin to provide brightening, clarifying, and restoring benefits to all skin types in need of perfecting.

• Brightens the appearance of pigmentation spots
• Assists with surface renewal and resurfacing
• Lessens future breakouts
• Assists in anti-wrinkle actions

The Glycolic and Retinol Pads contain glycolic acid and retinol which give the formula its yellow color visible upon opening. 

The kojic acid in the product is potent and highly active. While kojic acid does not affect the yellow color initially, over time it will darken with changes in light, pH or temperature, causing the actual pads to darken. This is normal and does not reduce efficacy of the formula. 

The seal of the product can also absorb the darkened product. Over time kojic acid will darken causing the pads to darken as well. Off gassing can occur, which can be absorbed by the seal of the jar and may result in darkening or discoloration of the seal. Discoloration of the seal is normal and does not reduce efficacy of the product. 

• All skin types and all Fitzpatricks
• Hyperpigmentation, melasma
• Oily and acneic skin
  
  These pads break up surface cells to reveal fresh, healthy skin while allowing trapped oil to release and come to the surface. Kojic and Arbutin lighten sun spots and scars left from blemishes.

• Use the Glycolic/Retinol Pads 2 – 3 times per week for pore refinement or acneic skin. For best penetration of this product, use with the Glycolic Cleanser and/or Retinol 2% Exfoliating Scrub/Mask. 
• For hyperpigmentation or melasma, use daily morning and evening to spot treat, applying only to pigmented areas. Reduce frequency after pigmentation has lightened. 
• Do not rinse; let the product stay on the skin. 
• If a client is going through a peel series, have them use pads twice per day then use as needed once the desired correction is reached.
