What the gurus are saying

Lactic acid is the headline, and reviewers keep praising how gentle this exfoliant feels. Several say it is unscented, layers well under makeup and does not pill, thanks to its ceramides. The one thing to keep in mind: one guru feels lactic acid's research trails glycolic's, so glycolic fans may want to weigh that. Newcomers may want to start a few nights a week and build toward daily use over about six weeks.

    "The Peach & Lily Power Cocktail Lactic Acid Serum is a wonderful product, great formula, great pH at half off. This is a good deal if you're older and looking for some anti-aging in my opinion. Lactic and glycolic acid are the two exfoliants to look for. They over time can help thicken skin up which if you know the older you get your skin gets a little bit thinner more delicate less collagen and glycolic and also lactic acid has been shown to help firm up skin and help thicken it a little bit."

    "Another one I really like is the Peach and Lily Power Cocktail Lactic Acid Serum. There's a lot of great exfoliants out there, there's a lot of great AHA serums, and these are two of my favorites because they're unscented, fragrance free, and very good for your skin. They apply really nicely and they feel elegant. I really appreciate them."

    "For this one, the Peach and Lily Power Cocktail Lactic Acid, you have to be the believer that lactic acid is also as good and effective as glycolic acid. Research doesn't quite show that yet, but it does show promising benefits. So keep that in mind. This one I'd set aside from the others, but it's still lactic acid, still has some benefits for collagen."

It has 12 active extracts with no added fragrance, and I feel it's more potent than Clinique's lactic acid serum while also not being harsh, [...] it just doesn't feel as irritating. It's a really, really nice exfoliating serum."

    "Peach and Lily makes a super nice, relatively affordable lactic acid serum, and it also has a ton of peptides in it. So, if you're looking for something to gently exfoliate, but also give you like a peptide step in your routine, maybe you're trying to streamline a little bit, highly recommend."

    How The Big Beauty Influencers Fake "Perfect No Makeup Skin" with Skincare
    "This exfoliates with lactic acid. It has 15 different plant complexes. It has ceramides, so it keeps the skin supple and it doesn't ball up and it doesn't pill up. It kind of feels like it grips onto the next product that you apply to the skin, but it doesn't feel overly goopy and it doesn't pill, which could ruin makeup or ruin the illusion that you're not wearing anything and that you're makeup free. But this is safe enough to use every single day. You just want to build up to it."

I would say start one to three times a week maybe at night, [...] and then you can start to up that maybe over the course of six weeks or so."
