Naturium AHA Exfoliating Mask 10% Glycolic & Lactic Acid — 1.7 oz, Weekly Resurfacing for Radiant, Smoother Skin

Naturium AHA Exfoliating Mask 10% is a weekly resurfacing mask that uses glycolic and lactic acids plus gentle physical exfoliants to improve skin texture and brighten the complexion.

This treatment mask blends chemical exfoliation from AHAs with rice powder and clay to refine pores, smooth roughness, and reveal fresher-looking skin. Designed at a skin-safe pH of 3.5–4, the formula targets uneven texture and dullness while being vegan and cruelty-free. Patch testing is advised before use and the product is suited for multiple skin types when used as directed.

How does this mask resurface and brighten skin?

The mask combines glycolic and lactic acids to loosen surface buildup and accelerate cell turnover, while rice powder and clay provide mild physical polishing. Together these actions lift dead skin and unclog pores, helping light reflect more evenly from the skin’s surface.

• 10% combined AHA concentration for chemical exfoliation
• Glycolic acid improves turnover; lactic acid is gentler and hydrating
• Rice powder and clay provide soft physical smoothing
• Helps diminish dullness and uneven texture

How often should I use the AHA Exfoliating Mask?

Use this mask one to two times weekly, depending on your skin’s tolerance and sensitivity. Leave the formula on for up to five minutes, then rinse; more frequent or longer use can increase irritation, especially for sensitive skin.

• Start with once a week to assess tolerance
• Increase to twice weekly only if skin remains comfortable
• Limit contact time to five minutes per application
• Always follow with sunscreen during the day

Is this mask safe for my skin type and concerns?

The formulation is intended for a range of skin types—blemish-prone, combination, dry, and mature skin can benefit from controlled AHA exfoliation. Sensitive skin users should proceed cautiously and perform a patch test first, since acids and physical particles can cause irritation for reactive skin.

• Suitable for blemish-prone and textured skin seeking smoother tone
• Helpful for dry or aging skin needing surface renewal
• Not recommended for skin that reacts badly to acids without testing
• Always layer sun protection after AHA use

How do I incorporate this into my routine safely?

Apply to clean, dry skin, avoiding the delicate eye area, then rinse thoroughly after up to five minutes and continue with your usual serums and moisturizer. Because AHAs can increase sun sensitivity, add broad-spectrum SPF every morning and avoid combining with other strong actives on the same day until you know how your skin responds.

• Cleanse before applying; massage evenly over face, neck, chest
• Rinse off after up to five minutes; do not leave on overnight
• Skip retinoids or strong vitamin C the same night if irritation occurs
• Use daily sunscreen after morning routines on exfoliation days

Who this is for: This mask is aimed at people seeking a reliable, affordable resurfacing treatment to reduce roughness, improve pore appearance, and brighten a dull complexion. It suits users comfortable with periodic chemical exfoliation and who will follow sun protection guidance. If you have very reactive or compromised skin, consult a professional and patch test before regular use.
