Citric Acid

What it does: Buffering, Masking

Community Rating: Disliked

Citric Acid is an AHA derived from citrus fruits (think oranges, lemons, and limes!).

If you spot Citric Acid near the end of an ingredient list, it's likely there as a pH adjuster rather than an active ingredient.

As an AHA, Citric Acid removes the top layer of skin cells from the newer layer of skin underneath. This helps skin to remove dark spots and look more even.

This brush and sponge cleaner is very effective and has nice and clean ingredients. It successfully removes makeup from my items, leaving them stainless, unless of course I have waited too long to clean them. It has a pleasant lavender scent and is both vegan and cruelty-free.
