Like AHAs, they exfoliate the top layer of skin. Lactobionic acid also exhibits significant antioxidant activity.
PHAs are more gentle than AHAs due to their larger structure. This means they do not penetrate as deeply as AHAs and take a longer time to dissolve dead cells. Studies show PHAs do not cause as much irritation.
By removing dead skin cells, PHAs leave the skin brighter and with even-texture.

Not very good. When you rub it against your skin, it forms little white clumps/balls right away... Way too quickly from minimal rubbing. Which made me suspicious... The company wanted it to look like it was peeling your skin (but they added clumping agents.) I even squeezed some onto my table and rubbed the gel against it with a plastic scooping tool which still formed the clumps.
