Lactic 10% Overnight Refiner

10% lactic acid resurfacing serum for smoother, brighter, more refined-looking skin.

A targeted overnight exfoliating treatment that uses 10% lactic acid to loosen and remove surface dead skin cells, helping improve the appearance of uneven texture, dullness, fine lines, and discoloration while hyaluronic acid helps maintain hydration.

At a Glance

What It Does

• Exfoliates surface dead skin cells
• Helps smooth rough, uneven texture
• Brightens the appearance of dull skin
• Helps improve the appearance of uneven tone
• Softens the look of fine lines caused partly by surface texture and dehydration
• Helps refine the appearance of pores
• Supports a smoother, more radiant-looking complexion
• Provides hydration while exfoliating

Who It’s For

A good fit for:

• Normal skin
• Combination skin
• Oily skin
• Dull-looking skin
• Uneven skin tone
• Rough or uneven texture
• Skin beginning to show visible signs of aging

Not ideal for: extremely sensitive, irritated, sunburned, or compromised skin.

If you’re new to exfoliating acids, start slowly and see how your skin responds.

Key Ingredients

What It Feels Like

A lightweight treatment serum designed to remain on the skin overnight.

Because this contains 10% lactic acid, a mild tingling sensation can occur. Strong burning, persistent discomfort, or significant irritation is not something to push through.

What to Expect

The first noticeable difference may be smoother-feeling skin and improved radiance.

With consistent use, skin may appear:

• Smoother
• Brighter
• More refined
• More even-looking
• Less dull
• Softer in texture

Longer-term improvements in the appearance of pigmentation, fine lines, and texture depend on consistent use and your individual skin.

How to Use

1. Apply to clean, completely dry skin in the evening.
2. Use a small amount over the face.
3. Do not rinse.
4. Start with once weekly and increase to twice weekly if well tolerated.
5. Follow with moisturizer if desired.

On Refiner Nights

Do not layer this with other strong exfoliating acids, retinoids, or other aggressive active treatments on the same night.

The goal is effective exfoliation — not maximum irritation.

Apply sunscreen the following morning.

What to Know Before You Buy

• This is a 10% lactic acid exfoliating treatment, not a daily serum.
• Lactic acid is an AHA. It exfoliates the skin’s surface and can make skin more sensitive to sun exposure.
• Do not use on broken, sunburned, irritated, or compromised skin.
• If you’re using retinoids, other AHAs/BHAs, or strong brightening treatments, alternate nights rather than stacking them.
• More frequent use does not necessarily produce better results.
• A mild initial tingle can be normal; burning or persistent irritation is not.
• Always use broad-spectrum SPF during the day.

Need Help Choosing?

Choose Lactic 10% Overnight Refiner when your biggest concern is rough texture, dullness, uneven tone, or a lack of radiance and you want an actual exfoliating treatment.

For dark spots without physical or acid exfoliation, look at Kojic & C-Luster Serum.

For daily brightening and overall uneven tone, Arbutin Clarity is the gentler everyday option.

For hydration and plumping rather than exfoliation, choose Hyaluronic Hydration Gel.

Premium shouldn’t mean complicated.
