The SK-II Facial Treatment Clear Lotion is a professional-grade chemical exfoliant that conditions the skin surface using a triple-AHA blend (Lactic, Malic, and Citric Acids). This combination, paired with Pitera™, facilitates a micro-peel effect that refines texture without the intensity of high-percentage glycolic peels. It is designed to dissolve the bonds between dead surface cells while maintaining hydration.
Sodium Hyaluronate is included to buffer the exfoliating acids, making this formula viable for mature or dry skin types. The lotion prepares the skin surface for the absorption of subsequent treatments. As with all alpha-hydroxy acid products, daily application of sunscreen is recommended to protect the newly conditioned skin surface from environmental factors.
