Molecule-Clear 5% Glycolic Acid Serum - 30ml

Nine Less Molecule-Clear 5% Glycolic Acid Serum is a Korean AHA exfoliating serum made for rough texture, enlarged-looking pores, dullness, uneven-looking tone and skin that needs more intensive resurfacing.

After cleansing and toner, apply 2–3 drops evenly over the face, avoiding the immediate eye and lip areas. Allow the serum to absorb, then follow with moisturizer.

For beginners, start 2–3 evenings per week and gradually increase frequency depending on your skin's tolerance. Stylevana specifically recommends nighttime use and gradually increasing frequency once the skin becomes accustomed to the formula.

Always apply sunscreen during the daytime while using Glycolic Acid. Avoid applying to broken, irritated or freshly exfoliated skin. Avoid combining it in the same routine with other strong exfoliating acids, peeling products or intensive retinoids if your skin becomes irritated. Reduce frequency or discontinue use if persistent irritation occurs.
