Gluconolactone and citric acid: work well together

Work well together

Use them together in the same routine, applying the exfoliating acid first and the gentle smoothing acid right after. The soothing acid calms any irritation from the exfoliating acid so skin stays comfortable. If skin feels sensitive, switch to using them on alternate nights.
