But what is Alpha Hydroxy Acid (AHA) and why is it so loved?

Alpha Hydroxy Acids (AHA) are water soluble acids produced by fruits or sugars. They are well known for exfoliating the skin.  How? They weaken the bonds that keep the dead or dull skin cells together which helps with exfoliation.

At Juice Beauty we use a variety natural, plant-based Alpha Hydroxy Acids (AHA) as we are deeply committed to utilizing vegan and organic ingredients that deliver powerful, clinically proven results. 

Read below about the Alpha Hydroxy Acids we use, and why we love using them in many of our skincare cleansers and serums.

Top 5 Reasons We Love Alpha Hydroxy Acids (AHA)

  1. They help exfoliate old skin cells
  2. They help visibly brighten skin

We use Glycolic Acid that is naturally derived from sugar cane.  Known as one of the most promising alpha hydroxy acids thanks to its compound size and ability to help with  the uppermost layers of skin buildup in order to reveal fresher looking.  Glycolic acid is also loved for its ability to enhance skin’s look of resilience while softening sun damage appearance.
