Silk amino acids and lactic acid
Work well together
Use them together by applying the lactic acid first and then the silk amino acids, because they help keep the skin balanced and comfortable. Lactic acid gently smooths the skin while silk amino acids help keep it deeply hydrated. The shopper can change to a gentler strength or use them on alternate days if the skin feels sensitive.
