Lactobionic acid
Lactobionic acid should not be confused with lactic acid and is a type of polyhydroxy acid (PHA) formed by the oxidation of lactose. Many skincare experts would consider lactobionic acid to be a milder form of an alpha-hydroxy acid and is used as a gentler exfoliator, suitable for sensitive and mature skin types. In addition to its exfoliating properties, it also acts as a humectant and mild antioxidant. It can be found in toners, serums and moisturisers and is gentle and non-irritating.
