Chemical vs Physical

Chemical exfoliants use acids to remove bonds that hold dull and dead cells together, while physical exfoliants use small particles to scrub cells off the surface. Acid Potion chemically exfoliates without the risk of micro‑tears.

AHAs — Glycolic Acid helps break down water bonds that hold dead and healthy cells together, and supports collagen production. Lactic Acid helps encourage cellular turnover.

BHA — Salicylic Acid (derived from Willow Bark) dissolves dead skin cells and oil on the surface of the skin, while unclogging and reducing the appearance of pores for smoother skin.

Niacinamide

    A little goes a long way!

    I had great success with this! I don’t love the smell but it works well. I use it at night before bed 2-3x a week and wash off in AM. I wouldn’t use more than a couple days a week. This is a chemical exfoliant.

    Love it. Better skin. Will continue to use.

    almost halfway through the bottle and feeling really great about this purchase.

    Bought the travel size just in case I didn't like it–– pleasantly surprised it's lasting a very long time, and that it is safe enough for everyday use: a month or so has passed in which I was using this on my face every night. Still stings for a few seconds upon application but I have noticed an improvement in pores and dark spots. It is not the strongest acid I've used, but I like it for the price and gentle efficacy.

    Pocket size acid potion for travel

    I love acid potion so I decided to get this travel size! I use it around oily areas (the nose, forehead) and it clears up my pores. I find it a little strong when you first use it so I gradually allowed my skin to get used to it my applying small amounts.

    Good for sensitive skin

    Have been really enjoying acid potion. Works well with my sensitive skin which sometimes doesn’t agree with acids.

FAQs

Is Acid Potion safe for acne prone skin?

Acne prone skin benefits from liquid exfoliation, especially Salicylic Acid since it works inside the pore. A chemical exfoliator exfoliates without micro-tears and helps skin texture. If you are new to Acids, you may experience purging if they are not used to exfoliating – this should resolve within a week.
Does Acid Potion increase photosensitivity?

Yes, please always wear SPF if you are using Acid Potion BHA liquid exfoliant. This is true with any exfoliating product - your skin will be more sensitive to the sun. Also, if you are battling discoloration, SPF should be an essential part of your regimen.
Is Acid Potion OK to use with a Retin-A treatment for acne?

We do not recommend combining our beauty potion with any retinoid treatment for acne, especially if you have sensitive skin. We recommend using Acid Potion on a day when you are not using a retinoid treatment.
How do I use Acid Potion?

Depending on your skin type, use our liquid exfoliator 1-3 nights in a row or every night. Shake into palm and apply onto clean face/neck with fingertips or a cotton pad. Don’t rinse! Follow with Plump Jelly.
Is Acid Potion a toner?

Nope. Acid Potion is a chemical exfoliator – think of it as a liquid facial. It shouldn’t be used in place of a toner in your skin care routine. It should be used on clean skin and follow it up with something hydrating after like Plump Jelly.

  • Niacinamide - A soothing form of Vitamin B3, Niacinamide helps even skin tone and replenish the barrier to protect against moisture loss and dehydration.
  • Adaptogenic Reishi - This ultra-hydrating mushroom helps to minimize signs of oxidative stress and bring hydration into the skin.
