Zeda’s clinical take
SA Murad Master Clinician of the Year
“Sensitive skin and exfoliation don’t have to be mutually exclusive — this is the serum that proves it. The encapsulated, microdosed glycolic acid releases slowly so there’s no spike of irritation, just steady, gentle cell turnover. A 91% reduction in sensitivity signs in clinical testing is a result I find genuinely impressive.”
Recommended for: sensitive and eczema-prone skin, reactive skin needing gentle exfoliation, all skin types, those who previously could not tolerate AHAs
Gentle Glycolic Acid Resurfacing for Sensitive Skin — Now in Refill Format
Sensitive skin usually means exfoliation is a no-go. This ultra-gentle, hypoallergenic, fragrance-free serum delivers a slow-release microdose of glycolic acid to maintain healthy skin turnover — notoriously difficult to achieve in sensitive skin. Sensitive skin instantly looks more radiant while feeling calm and soothed. The refill format reduces plastic by 80% vs. the full pack.
