Our take
HashMonkey score: 4/5 ★★★★★☆☆☆☆☆
Our editorial opinion, based on research into the listing, brand details, owner feedback and expert reviews. Not hands-on testing, and not an Amazon customer rating.
It's a cult product for good reason. Still, cheaper lactic acid serums exist, so buy it for the formula and feel, not the hype.
Who it’s for
Skincare fans who want a well-known glow-boosting exfoliant
Pros and things to consider
Pros
- Gentle-feeling acid
- Flexible use
- Iconic brand reputation
Things to consider
- The honest catch: sensitive skin should patch-test first and not stack it with other acids.
- Expensive per milliliter
- Acids raise sun sensitivity, so SPF is a must
