Description:

Lactobionic acid, also known as LA, is found to naturally occur in the body as a result of oxidation of lactose. As a member of the PHA family in recent years it has gathered some recognition amongst dermatologists and beauty professionals due to its impressive antioxidant properties. This makes it a highly effective skincare ingredient as it has an impressive ability to protect the skin from free radical damage, such as pollution, UV exposure and other environmental aggressors. When the skin is exposed to these without any help from an antioxidant enriched compound a number of skin concerns begin to develop, from fine lines, congested and uneven complexion including hyperpigmentation.

Containing high levels of antioxidant benefits lactobionic acid has the ability to keep the skin’s natural protective barrier to remain fully functioning and able to tackle any free radicals. But that isn’t the only skin benefits this clever PHA can provide. It is an acid and can buff away any build-up of dead skin cells, debris and other impurities that can often lead the skin becoming lacklustre. By gently exfoliating lactobionic acid is able to restore balance in the skin and giving an all-over marked improvement on the complexion and radiance. You will also find that due to LA having a larger molecule size it therefore cannot penetrate through the skin too far creating any skin irritation.
