Gluconolactone
€3,80 – €53,80
It is a polyhydroxy acid (PHA) that compares in effectiveness to AHA acids, but is less irritating to the skin.
Gluconolactone does not penetrate the skin as deeply as some AHA acids, so it has a weaker sensitizing effect. There is data that it penetrates the skin 6% worse than glycolic acid. But worse absorption does not reduce its effectiveness.
Gluconolactone can be a bit gentler for skin sensitive to AHAs, less redness is usually due to its antioxidant properties.
Gluconolactone acts as a mild exfoliant, improves skin texture and color, and moisturizes the skin. It is used for mature skin and acne, as it normalizes keratinization and inhibits the reproduction of microorganisms.
Ingredients: gluconolactone.
Purity: min 99%.
Recommendation: slowly turns into gluconic acid in water solutions, so the pH of the prepared solution drops below 3 within a couple of hours (at a concentration > 1%). Therefore, we recommend allowing the prepared solution to stand for a couple of hours while hydrolysis takes place, and only then raise the pH of the product above 3.5 (which is considered a safe level) using caustic soda or L-arginine.
