Is Power Glow Serum suitable for sensitive skin?
Immediate Answer: Yes, Power Glow Serum is formulated with gentle ingredients—lactobionic acid, one of the mildest exfoliating acids (a PHA), and a stable form of vitamin C that is less irritating than pure vitamin C—together with soothing eucalyptus, so it suits most sensitive skin while addressing multiple concerns.
The Science: Lactobionic acid is well suited to sensitive skin because it:
- Has larger molecules than AHAs such as glycolic acid, so it works more gently on the skin surface
- Draws moisture into the skin while it exfoliates
- Is paired with antioxidants (vitamin C, ferulic acid, sea buckthorn) that help protect against environmental stress
- Contains eucalyptus, which has a calming effect on redness and sensitivity
As with any new product, patch-test first and introduce it gradually.
How to start: For sensitive skin:
- Start with daily morning use (lower potential for irritation with daytime routine)
- Add evening use after 1-2 weeks if tolerance is good
- Pair with soothing moisturiser for barrier support
- Can safely layer with Dark Spot Treatment patches 2-3x weekly
Most sensitive skin tolerates the formula well. Stop using it if irritation persists.
Pro Tip: Sensitive skin often does best with gentle acids such as PHAs. Power Glow Serum addresses pigmentation and signs of ageing with a gentle formula.
