Lactic Acid is a mild alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA) derived from milk. It is included in Genova Active Foaming Cleanser for its gentle exfoliating properties, designed to help support smoother skin texture and a more even-looking complexion with consistent use.

How Does It Work?

  • Supports Gentle Exfoliation - Lactic Acid helps remove surface dead skin cells, which may contribute to a smoother, more refined skin texture over time.
  • May Support a More Even Skin Tone - With consistent use, it may help reduce the visible appearance of uneven skin tone and surface discolouration associated with sun exposure and hormonal skin changes.
  • Supports Moisture Retention - Unlike stronger AHAs, Lactic Acid also has humectant properties, designed to help support moisture retention alongside its exfoliating action.
  • Supports Skin Texture - May help contribute to a more refined-looking complexion with regular use as part of a consistent skincare routine.

Who Is It For?

Lactic Acid is included in Genova Active Foaming Cleanser for women experiencing uneven skin texture, surface discolouration, or dullness - concerns that often become more noticeable during perimenopause and menopause as cell turnover naturally slows. It is designed for daily use in mild concentrations suitable for regular cleansing routines.
