Lactic acid is a naturally occurring organic acid produced through the fermentation of carbohydrates by lactic acid bacteria or synthesized industrially. As a hydroxy acid, it has a dual role in cosmetics, food, and pharmaceuticals.
In skincare, its water-soluble nature and small molecular size allow it to penetrate the skin’s stratum corneum, making it a key exfoliant and moisturizer.
