A 12-week clinical study found gluconolactone delivered anti-aging benefits comparable to glycolic acid, while being significantly better tolerated¹ — its larger molecular structure means slower, more superficial penetration, which is why PHAs are generally gentler than AHAs or BHAs, including on sensitive, rosacea-prone, or barrier-compromised skin. Separate independent research has found PHA formulations support the skin barrier by reducing water loss and improving tolerance². The formula is rounded out with six fruit and botanical extracts — Cucumber, Muscat Grape, Green Apple, Green Plum, Papaya, and Centella Asiatica — alongside Camellia Japonica Flower Extract.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey ingredients\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul dir=\"ltr\" class=\"[li_\u0026amp;]:mb-0 [li_\u0026amp;]:mt-1 [li_\u0026amp;]:gap-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc flex flex-col gap-1 pl-8 mb-3 print:block print:space-y-1\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eGluconolactone (PHA) 10% — gentle exfoliant, supports cell renewal, hydration, and barrier strength\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eCentella Asiatica Extract — supports skin healing and calming\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eCucumber, Grape, Apple, Plum \u0026amp; Papaya Extracts — botanical extracts for nourishing, soothing support\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eCamellia Japonica Flower Extract — antioxidant botanical extract\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBest suited for\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul dir=\"ltr\" class=\"[li_\u0026amp;]:mb-0 [li_\u0026amp;]:mt-1 [li_\u0026amp;]:gap-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc flex flex-col gap-1 pl-8 mb-3 print:block print:space-y-1\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eAnyone wanting a genuinely well-evidenced, gentle chemical exfoliant\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eSensitive, reactive, or barrier-compromised skin, given PHA's documented tolerability\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eThose new to chemical exfoliation, or looking for an alternative to stronger AHAs\/BHAs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eScreening summary \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOut of 20 ingredients, 19 passed without comment.  The one that flagged was Disodium EDTA which is added to formulas to stabilise ingredients and support preservatives.
