What Nykaa E retail limited Says
Product Description:
Step into a world of radiant skin with Bake 10% Glycolic Acid Toning Solution with Cucumber, an alcohol-free formula enriched with hyaluronic acid. With soothing cucumber extract and a non-drying formulation, it's suitable for a variety of skin types, making it an essential addition to your skincare routine. Features: Pigmentation solution: The glycolic acid in the toner can help address hyperpigmentation by encouraging the shedding of discolored skin cells and promoting the turnover of new, more even-toned skin. Pore tightening: Glycolic acid can assist in unclogging pores and removing excess sebum, potentially reducing the appearance of enlarged pores. The addition of hyaluronic acid to the toner helps to attract and retain moisture in the skin, providing hydration without making the skin feel greasy or heavy. Underarms transformation: The inclusion of glycolic acid in the toner may assist in preventing ingrown hairs in the underarm area by exfoliating the skin's surface and reducing the likelihood of hair follicles becoming trapped beneath the skin. This can lead to smoother and less irritated underarm skin. Tan removal: Glycolic acid toning solution aids in tan removal by accelerating the shedding of surface skin cells, effectively reducing the appearance of tanned or discolored areas over time. Know more: This product is FDA approved, dermatologically tested, and cruelty-free. It is also free from parabens, sulphates, fragrance, and artificial colours.

Ingredients Details
Glycerine
Common Name(s): Glycerin,universal humectant,water-binding skin conditioning
CAS Number: N/a
DESCRIPTION
What It Does: Attracts and retains moisture in the sc, improves skin barrier function at low concentrations, provides gentle keratolytic softening, and acts as a co-solvent for water-soluble actives.
Why It's Used: The reference humectant โ lowest cost, best safety profile, universal formulation compatibility, and present naturally in the sc via lipase-mediated glycerolipid hydrolysis makes glycerin the industry standard against which all humectants are benchmarked.
How It Works: Three hydroxyl groups form 6 h-bonds with water molecules per glycerol unit โ the highest oh-group density per carbon of any commercial humectant. glycerin also down-regulates epidermal serine proteases that overactivate in dry sc, improving desquamation and barrier integrity.
