[View this email in your browser]( | [Manage newsletter subscriptions](newsletter=all2) [Allure]( October 08, 2020 SkinCeuticals's Glycolic 10 Renew Overnight Treatment Is a Godsend for Fading My Hyperpigmentation I've tried my fair share of acid over the years — skin-care acid, that is — and [glycolic acid]( by far is the one that makes my [hyperpigmentation]( and hormonal, acne-prone skin the giddiest. So naturally, I was all in on trying this year's [Allure Best of Beauty winner](, the [SkinCeuticals Glycolic 10 Renew Overnight](. I tend to use glycolic acid in [liquid form](, but this one is a cream. In addition to having 10 percent glycolic acid, there's also two percent phytic acid, a mild corn-derived acid that also helps with skin clarity and brightness. What makes this formula tolerable for even [sensitive skin]( is that the acids are formulated with what the brand calls a triple-action soothing complex (made of hydrating jojoba and sunflower seed oils ), which acts as a protective barrier from irritation. I applied the cream all over my just-washed face and then went back and did a small [spot treatment]( specifically over the two pimples. The next morning, I was very impressed by the way the inflammation on my pimples had significantly gone down and the texture of my skin looked and felt smoother after one night. If I could douse my whole body in this treatment, I would. It has once again confirmed that glycolic acid is a winner for me.
