Axis-Y PHA Resurfacing Glow Peel 50ml

Axis-Y PHA Resurfacing Glow Peel is a gel-water peel with 10% PHA (gluconolactone) that gently exfoliates dead skin cells and clears surface buildup while maintaining hydration. Unlike AHA and BHA, PHA has a larger molecular size that provides gradual, gentle exfoliation — making it ideal for sensitive skin types who can't tolerate stronger acids.

Six fruit and botanical extracts enhance the peel: papaya provides natural enzyme exfoliation, apple delivers AHAs and antioxidants, grape offers resveratrol and polyphenols, Japanese plum (prunus mume) brightens, cucumber hydrates and cools, and centella asiatica calms. Vitamin E (tocopherol) provides antioxidant protection. The gel-to-water texture transforms on contact for a satisfying, spa-like experience.

Pro tip: PHA (polyhydroxy acid) is the gentlest type of chemical exfoliant — it exfoliates like AHA but with the added benefit of drawing moisture to the skin. This makes it perfect if you've tried glycolic or lactic acid peels and found them too irritating. The 10-15 minute wait time is important — that's when the gluconolactone is actively dissolving the bonds between dead skin cells. Your skin should feel smoother immediately after rinsing. For best results, use in the evening and follow with a hydrating serum.
