Our glycolic acid (from sugar cane) is one of the smallest molecules within the alpha-hydroxy acid AHA group; it deeply penetrates the skin & is one of the most effective skincare ingredients. Even sensitive skin can quickly acclimate to the daily use of 10% glycolic acid with this unique formula combining 70% calming hydroponic aloe moisture-retaining sea kelp, and blueberries. This leave-on exfoliating serum dissolves the glue-like build-up that bonds dead skin cells to the skin.
We also offer a cream version of this exfoliating serum the Glycolic Acid Night Cream that is better tolerated for more sensitive skin.
This unique botanically-based, oil-free formula quickly sheds dead skin cells that accumulate on the skin's surface. As a result, it significantly minimizes the appearance of pores. It improves skin texture while reducing fine lines, wrinkles, and hyperpigmentation and helps other skincare products penetrate more effectively into the skin.

The Proven Potency & Countless Benefits of GUNILLA® & LEROSETT® Skincare Products Based on Hydro-Organic Greenhouse-Grown Organic Aloe-Vera. Not Water.
GUNILLA® & LEROSETT® products contain over 60% nutrient-infused hydroponically grown organic aloe and are naturally therapeutic. Hydroponically grown aloe vera is rich in antioxidants, combats free radicals, and has potent youth-enhancing anti-inflammatory properties. Our nutrient-infused organic aloe allows active ingredients to penetrate deeper into the skin while increasing collagen to help heal the skin. Our unique hydroponic aloe is hand planted and grown without pesticides or herbicides.
Aloe can penetrate tissue – Unlike water, aloe can be absorbed by the skin. It is absorbed deep into the skin’s layers due to lignin, a substance similar to cellulose. When used as the main ingredient, this ability allows aloe to act as an excellent carrier for the other components of aloe vera and other botanicals and active ingredients. –The clinically-proven ingredients in GUNILLA® products are even more effective within an organic aloe base than water.
Aloe has antimicrobial properties – The antimicrobial compounds in aloe include saponin, which has antiseptic properties, and barbaloin, which prevents the growth of Mycobacterium, bacteria famous for causing severe bacterial infections. A 1979 study by Heggers et al. showed that aloe in concentrations greater than 60% is lethal against various organisms. Bacteria is a leading cause of acne. -When aloe is in concentrations greater than 60% is lethal against various organisms.
Aloe is anti-inflammatory – Aloe contains natural salicylic acid, an anti-inflammatory beta-hydroxy acid, and a gentle exfoliant. It also includes sterols that inhibit acute inflammation, similar to cortisone but without side effects. Instead of water, GUNILLA®® uses over 60% hydro-organic aloe vera as a base; this aloe alone is clinically shown to reduce swelling and inflammation by an average of 47%. When used in a concentration of over 50%, organic aloe vera is the perfect ingredient for skincare.
Aloe’s ability to heal damaged skin – Scientific research has shown that several components in aloe are responsible for the substance’s excellent ability to regenerate cells. These include gibberellin, a growth hormone-like substance that increases protein synthesis, and lectin, a protein that increases collagen activity and improves the collagen matrix. As a result, LEROSETT® & GUNILLA® products help heal and improve skin health.
