XX Rose Glycolic Gel

Description

Monastery XX Rose Glycolic Gel is an exfoliating treatment designed to gently refine and smooth the skin while maintaining hydration. Featuring 10% glycolic acid in a soothing rose water base, this lightweight gel works to exfoliate without disrupting the skin’s natural balance. Suitable for regular use, it helps support a clearer, more even complexion while leaving the skin feeling fresh.

Formulated with glycolic acid, the gel helps loosen surface buildup to improve texture and enhance overall smoothness. Rose water provides a calming, hydrating element that helps maintain comfort during use. The lightweight texture glides easily across the skin, absorbing quickly and leaving it feeling soft, refreshed, and refined with a balanced finish.

HOW TO USE IT

Apply 1–2 pumps to clean, dry skin, gently smoothing over the face using light, even strokes. Allow the formula to absorb before continuing with the rest of the routine. For more sensitive skin, apply a thin layer and leave on for 2–5 minutes, then rinse thoroughly with water. Use a few times per week, adjusting frequency based on skin tolerance.
