Neutralyze Resurfacing Pads

Neutralyze Resurfacing Pads are pre-soaked, dual-textured pads built around GlycoForte™, our low-pH system: 20% glycolic acid + hyaluronic acid. Glycolic acid is an alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) that loosens dull surface skin so it can be swept away, which leaves skin feeling refreshed and texture looking refined. GlycoForte™ pairs the glycolic acid with a buffer that holds it in the acidity range where it exfoliates. Sodium hyaluronate (hyaluronic acid) and sodium polyaspartate help keep skin hydrated through the exfoliation step, and betaine is added to help balance the acid. Each jar holds 100 pads with a smooth side and a textured side, for the face and neck. Sulfate-free, fragrance-free, vegan and cruelty-free, formulated by cosmetic chemist George Deckner and made in the USA. Acids that stay acids. GlycoForte™ is formulated at a low pH, so glycolic acid stays in its active free-acid form instead of turning into sodium glycolate. See why pH matters. Smooths rough texture: 20% glycolic acid lifts dull surface skin for a smoother feel from the first swipe. Minimizes the look of pores: regular resurfacing helps pores look smaller and texture look refined. Hydrates while it exfoliates: hyaluronic acid and sodium polyaspartate help keep skin hydrated during exfoliation. pH-buffered formula: GlycoForte™ buffers the glycolic acid, so strength and comfort stay in balance. Dual-textured pads: a smooth side for an even sweep, a textured side for gentle extra exfoliation. About the Product: GLYCOFORTE™ · 20% GLYCOLIC + HYALURONIC ACID, EXPLAINED GlycoForte™ is the Neutralyze pH-buffering system, used only in Resurfacing Pads. Glycolic acid is the smallest AHA, so it works quickly at the surface to loosen the dull, rough skin that makes pores and lines look more visible. Ammonium hydroxide buffers it and holds it in the acidity range where it exfoliates, which keeps resurfacing strength and comfort in balance. Hyaluronic acid (sodium hyaluronate) and sodium polyaspartate help hold moisture in, and betaine helps balance the acid. TWO SIDES. SMOOTH + TEXTURED. Each of the 100 pre-soaked pads has two sides. Use the smooth side for an even sweep across the face and neck, and flip to the textured side for gentle extra exfoliation where skin feels rough. A finger notch makes each pad easy to grip.

Resurfacing Pads are the REFINE step. On REFINE nights, use them in place of Neutralyze Exfoliating Pads (Step 2, REJUVENATE). Don't use both on the same night. CLEANSE: cleanse skin and pat dry REFINE: Neutralyze Resurfacing Pads (in place of REJUVENATE Exfoliating Pads) Ingredients: Water (Aqua), Glycolic Acid, Ammonium Hydroxide, Sodium Polyaspartate, Betaine, Benzyl Alcohol, Sodium Hyaluronate, 1,2-Hexanediol, Caprylyl Glycol Important Information: SUNBURN ALERT: This product contains an alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) that may increase your skin's sensitivity to the sun and particularly the possibility of sunburn. Use a sunscreen, wear protective clothing, and limit sun exposure while using this product and for a week afterwards. For external use only. Avoid the eye area. Do not use if you have very sensitive skin or are sensitive to glycolic acid. Stop use and ask a doctor if irritation becomes severe. Keep out of reach of children. How to Use: Patch-test first: for the first 3 days, use a pad sparingly on one or two small areas. Swipe at night: on clean, dry skin, sweep a pad gently over your face and neck, avoiding the eye area. Do not rinse. Start slow: use 1–2× a week, then build to daily as tolerated. If dryness, peeling or irritation occurs, go back to 1–2× a week. FAQ: How often should I use them? Start slow: 1–2× a week at night, then build to daily as tolerated. Can I use them with Neutralyze Exfoliating Pads? Use one or the other on a given night. On REFINE nights, Resurfacing Pads take the place of Exfoliating Pads. Using them before other Neutralyze products may increase the chance of irritation. Where can I use them? On the face and neck. Avoid the eye area. What if they're not right for me? Every order is covered by our 1-year, no-questions-asked refund. Email customerservice@neutralyze.com or call 1-855-460-2263. Do glycolic acid pads help with post-acne dark spots? Yes. With consistent use, glycolic acid helps fade the look of post-acne marks and uneven tone by speeding up surface cell turnover. Results build gradually over weeks, and daily sunscreen is essential, since new sun exposure darkens marks faster than any exfoliant can fade them. Is 20% glycolic acid too strong to start with? Not if you start slow: patch-test for 3 days, begin 1–2 nights a week and build up only as your skin tolerates it. GlycoForte™ buffers the glycolic acid to keep strength and comfort in balance. If your skin is very sensitive, a gentler large-molecule AHA like the 1% mandelic acid in Neutralyze Exfoliating Pads is the better starting point.
