Lactic Acid (88%) is an alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) supplied as a concentrated liquid solution. Naturally occurring in foods such as milk and fermented products, it is widely used in cosmetic and personal care formulations for its pH-adjusting, gentle exfoliation, and skin-conditioning properties. At controlled levels, it can help refine product texture and support the feel of smoother, softer skin. Suitable for use in creams, lotions, cleansers, and peels, it is also used in hair care products for pH balancing and conditioning.

Please Note:

While some of our stock products can be customized with scents, additives, etc., at-home customization should be done at your own risk. We are not liable for formulas that break as a result of customer alterations. Altering cosmetic products is a complex and variable process, and there is not a one size fits all method for the customization of any formula. We encourage you to experiment in small test batches, do outside research before attempting to customize a product, and have your customized product tested at a third party lab to ensure preservation efficacy.
