The Essential 8% Exfoliating Serum (previously known as the Daily Exfoliating Therapy Serum) is a starter-strength, lightweight, oil-free 8% glycolic treatment that removes dulling dead cells to reveal brighter, softer, healthier looking skin. This buffered and pH-adjusted glycolic serum, enhanced with BeautyRx complex Tetrafoliant, provides gentle yet amazingly effective exfoliation.

Skin will be left glowing, more even-toned, and younger looking. This glycolic serum will reduce the appearance of enlarged pores, fade brown spots and blotches, and can even soften the appearance of fine lines with regular use.
