The closest thing to an elixir of youth outside of a fairytale! Sunday Riley's completely reformulated Good Genes Glycolic Acid Treatment is a multi-tasking, under moisturiser treatment and mask that smooths, refines, clarifies and brightens, whilst improving your skin's thickness and elasticity... phewf! Featuring tiny glycolic acid molecules that sink deeply into skin, the formula breaks apart pore-clogging debris and minimises the appearance of congestion and fine lines. Alongside this, lactic acid exfoliates further, prickly pear extract reduces irritation and lemongrass extract brightens and clarifies skin.
A multi-purpose treatment, Good Genes Glycolic Acid Treatment works hard to un-do the damage caused by sunlight, acne, pollution and less-than-healthy lifestyle choices! The potent blend of ingredients combine to plump fine lines, fight hyper-pigmentation, heal scar tissue and boost circulation so skin looks smoother, younger and more vibrant. The starring ingredient in this reformulated treatment are tiny glycolic acid molecules (which can sink deeper into the skin than other forms of alpha hydroxy acid) which break apart pore-clogging debris, gently exfoliating away dead, dulling cells to reveal the radiance beneath and minimise the signs of congestion, fine lines, wrinkles and dullness. Alongside this, lactic acid exfoliates further, prickly pear extract reduces irritation and lemongrass extract brightens and clarifies skin. The treatment can be used daily to give your complexion a moisture and radiance boost, or applied as a treatment mask to increase circulation and get skin glowing ahead of a special occasion.
Apply to clean skin as an exfoliating serum, morning or night.

reset! but don't after you shaved!
This is a must-have! I use this twice a week when I feel my skin has had a lot to take (sun, makeup). For those who shave, do not use it after! It burns.
Report this reviewToo pricey for what it does
I received a free 5ml sample from Cult Beaty which I just finished. This is a rather good exfoliator, especially if you have sensitive skin. However, it is also very expensive and I cannot justify paying that much money for this product. The Ordinary has products that do a similar job (i.e. the Lactic Acid Serums) for a fraction of the price
Report this reviewGentle Glycolic Acid Serum for Rosacea-Prone Skin
I've been using this glycolic acid serum for my rosacea-prone skin, and I'm thrilled with the results. Despite using it 3-4 times a week, it doesn't irritate my skin. Instead, it leaves my skin feeling incredibly smooth and helps achieve a more uniform complexion.
Report this reviewAmazing but pricey
This was an amazing product for my skin and I noticed a difference within a couple of weeks of use. My skin looked younger for sure! I just can’t afford to buy it regularly so that’s the only reason for the 4 star.Â
Report this reviewSoft face
I usually this two nights a week after swimming. Makes my skin feel reset and refreshed.Â
Report this reviewAmazing!!!
I love good genes, my skin texture has never been better and I feel it working. I can't wait to see what my skin looks like in a couple of months' time!!
Report this reviewamazing serum
Have only used it for a week but noticed my active blemishes go away in one night and my skin is much more glowyÂ
Report this reviewGood Brightner
I used this daily at first and it irritated a bit. Then changed it to every 2 days and that seemed to work. Smoothed and brightened the complexion.
Report this reviewMiracle worker
I'm 48 years old and over time I tried so many glycolic acid products, never found one that didn't irritated my skin, Good genes was an impulse buy, and nomatter how bad my bank account hates me this will be a repeated purchase till my bitter end. Initially stings a bit, but left overnight will work its magic into a calmer plump, smooth complexion.
