AHA Resurfacing Lotion 8

$ 35.00 Regular price $ 45.00
Potent exfoliating treatment empowered by 8% glycolic acid that actively enhances cell renewal, while retexturizing and renewing skin to reveal a brighter, smoother and more even-toned complexion. This advanced formulation also hydrates with vitamin E and other effective emollients to soothe and comfort dryness and irritation. Pores appear smaller, fine lines reduced and an enviable radiant glow appears.

Twice daily, apply to clean, dry skin avoiding the eye area. Follow with moisturizer and sunscreen in the morning and moisturizer in the evening. We recommend starting your resurfacing journey with our AHA Resurfacing Lotion 8 and working up to our AHA Resurfacing Lotion 20 once skin acclimatizes to our active ingredients. 

8% Glycolic Acid promotes healthy cell renewal, while freeing skin from potentially pore-clogging and complexion-dulling dry, dead skin cells to create smaller looking pores.

Hyaluronic Acid helps soften the appearance of fine lines.

Green Tea and Vitamin E help keep skin smooth and supple, while improving elasticity and delivering antioxidant protection. Jojoba and emollients soften and soothe dry skin while helping to fortify the crucial protective moisture barrier to seal in hydration and lock out irritants.

Shea butter, Chamomile, and Aloe soothe, soften and calm irritation.

AHA Resurfacing Lotion 8 FAQs

AHA Lotion 8 contains 8% glycolic acid, making it a gentler, beginner-friendly exfoliator. It’s great for daily use and for those new to chemical exfoliation. The 20% version is more intensive and suited for experienced AHA users.

This lotion helps to:

  1. Smooth skin texture
  2. Brighten dullness
  3. Fade mild discoloration
  4. Refine pores
  5. Support collagen production over time

It delivers visible clarity without the intensity of a stronger AHA product.

Suitable for all skin types, including normal, combination, oily, and even mildly sensitive skin, especially for those easing into chemical exfoliants.

Most people can use it once daily, preferably at night. If you have sensitive skin, start with every other night and increase as tolerated.

To avoid irritation, it’s best not to apply it at the same time as retinol, vitamin C serums, or other acids. Alternate days or use one in the morning and the other at night.

Some users may experience temporary tingling or light peeling as their skin adjusts. This usually subsides with regular use. If irritation persists, reduce frequency or discontinue use.

Yes, it has a lightweight texture that absorbs well under makeup, but because glycolic acid increases sun sensitivity, always apply a broad-spectrum SPF on top during the day.

It’s one of the gentlest exfoliators in the DCL range, but those with sensitive skin should patch test first and introduce slowly to minimize the risk of reaction.

Yes! It can also be used on the neck, chest, shoulders, hands or anywhere you want to improve tone and texture. Avoid broken skin and always apply SPF on exposed areas.

The formula is non-comedogenic and designed not to clog pores. Please check the packaging or ingredients list for fragrance if you have sensitivities, though it's generally well tolerated.

Safety & Tolerance Ratings

Each DCL product is evaluated for Pregnancy Safety (PSS), Non-Comedogenic Index (NCI), and Irritation Risk (AI). These independent ratings, provided by Milbar Labs, provide transparency and help you choose products with confidence.

My savior

I have been using this lotion since September 2023. It was recommended to me in Saudia Arabia and ever since I started using it my acne completely calmed down. I have mild cystic acne and this is the only product that truly made a difference. I've tried Cabtreo and Benzoyl Peroxide but so far the only thing that works is this. Which Is funny because this isn't even for acne like the other products.

AHA resurfacing lotion 8

Errouionsly ordered the lotion. Cannot use lotions. Clogs pores. Have given the lotion as a gift. Unfortunate that the AHA solution 8 was discontinued. Used it successfully for about 20 years. Have found a replacement at NeoStrata. Seems to contain same ingredients. Hope it works!!!
