The Ordinary Lactic Acid 10% + HA 30ml Serum.
Original price was: ₨ 3,500.₨ 2,399Current price is: ₨ 2,399.
How It Works:
- Exfoliation and Skin Renewal: Lactic acid exfoliates the outer layer of the skin, helping to remove dead skin cells that can make the complexion appear dull and uneven. This process stimulates the skin’s natural turnover, revealing fresher, more youthful-looking skin.
- Hydration and Skin Comfort: The inclusion of hyaluronic acid ensures that the skin doesn’t feel dry or tight after exfoliation. It helps replenish moisture and maintain skin hydration, making the serum suitable even for those with dry skin.
- Soothing and Calming: The Tasmanian pepperberry extract helps to calm the skin and reduce the irritation commonly associated with exfoliating acids. This makes it a gentler option for individuals who may be sensitive to typical AHA treatments.
pH and pKa Considerations:
The formula’s pH is approximately 3.8, which is optimal for the effectiveness of lactic acid. The pKa (a measure of acid strength) of lactic acid is also 3.8, meaning that the acid is well-balanced and readily available to work on the skin’s surface. A pH close to the pKa ensures that the acid remains effective in exfoliating the skin while minimizing irritation. This ideal balance maximizes the benefits of the acid while ensuring that the formula is gentle on the skin.
Ideal for Dry Skin:
Lactic Acid 10% + HA is specifically formulated for dry skin types, offering a balance of exfoliation and hydration. While exfoliating acids are often associated with irritation or dryness, this serum is designed to maintain moisture levels and protect the skin barrier, making it a perfect solution for those who struggle with dry, rough, or flaky skin.
How to Use:
- Apply: After cleansing and toning, apply a few drops of the serum to the face, avoiding the eye area. Gently massage into the skin.
- Frequency: Start by using the serum once a week and gradually increase frequency to every other day or as tolerated.
- Follow with Moisturizer: Always follow up with a hydrating moisturizer to lock in moisture and keep the skin feeling soft.
- Sun Protection: Since AHAs can increase skin sensitivity to the sun, always use sunscreen during the day when using this product.
Additional Benefits:
- Smooths Skin Texture: Regular use helps to smooth rough or uneven skin texture, giving the skin a more polished appearance.
- Reduces Hyperpigmentation: Lactic acid can help lighten dark spots, acne scars, and sun damage by encouraging skin cell turnover, revealing a more even skin tone over time.
- Gentle on Skin: Thanks to the inclusion of Tasmanian pepperberry extract and hyaluronic acid, this formula is gentle enough for those with dry and sensitive skin, making it a great exfoliating option without the typical irritation.
Suitable For:
- Dry skin types
- Sensitive skin types (due to soothing ingredients)
- Those with dull or uneven skin tone
- People looking for a gentle but effective exfoliant
This product offers a balanced, effective solution for exfoliating dry skin while maintaining hydration, making it a great addition to your skincare routine. With regular use, your skin will feel smoother, more radiant, and evenly textured.

Description
Lactic Acid 10% + HA – Detailed Description
Lactic Acid 10% + HA is an advanced exfoliating serum that harnesses the power of Lactic Acid (an alpha hydroxy acid, or AHA) to deliver effective surface-level exfoliation. Designed to promote smoother, brighter skin, this water-based serum helps to remove dead skin cells, allowing for the renewal of the skin’s surface. It also includes Hyaluronic Acid (HA) for added hydration and Tasmanian pepperberry extract to help soothe the skin, making it ideal for those with dry skin or those looking to minimize irritation from exfoliation.
Key Ingredients and Their Benefits:
- Lactic Acid 10% (Alpha Hydroxy Acid): Lactic Acid is an AHA that works by gently exfoliating the surface of the skin. It dissolves dead skin cells, unclogs pores, and encourages the renewal of skin cells. This results in a brighter, more even skin tone with continued use. Lactic acid also enhances the skin’s ability to retain moisture, helping to keep the skin soft and hydrated. It’s especially beneficial for dry skin, as it removes dead skin while boosting hydration.
- Hyaluronic Acid (HA): Hyaluronic Acid is a powerful humectant that draws moisture into the skin. It helps to maintain optimal skin hydration levels, making the skin feel plump and hydrated. In this formula, HA works in tandem with lactic acid to counterbalance the exfoliating action, ensuring that the skin remains hydrated and comfortable throughout the process. This makes the serum suitable even for sensitive skin types that may otherwise be prone to dehydration after exfoliation.
- Tasmanian Pepperberry Extract: This natural extract is known for its soothing and anti-inflammatory properties. Tasmanian pepperberry extract helps to reduce irritation, redness, and sensitivity that can occur with exfoliating acids. It’s particularly valuable for individuals with dry or sensitive skin, as it minimizes discomfort and enhances the overall tolerance of the product. This ingredient is a key addition that ensures the serum’s gentle action while providing effective exfoliation.
