Alpha Hydroxy Products

ALL PRODUCT PRICING INCLUDE SHIPPING - Alpha-Hydroxy Acids (AHA's), the naturally occurring weak fruit and food acids, have been an exiting development in the skin care industry. They show excellent results in improving the collagen creation and the exfoliation of epidermis dead cells. The AHA's include glycolic, lactic, citric, malic and tartaric acids. Glycolic acid is present in sugar cane, lactic acid in sour milk, citric acid in fruits, malic acid in apples, and tartaric acid in grapes. Use and effectiveness of these acids was well known by ancient and folk medicine. Our products with alpha hydroxy acids also incorporate another important development in modern skin care. Use of atomized oxygen as a penetrative vehicle for Vitamin A Palmitate. Once the Vitamin A Palmitate penetrates the skin, it is converted to weak retinoic acid by the body's natural biochemical processes. This conversion is well documented by Hoffman-LaRoche in Switzerland, which manufactures the retinoic acid-ingredient used to make Retin-A creams.
