Ingredients

  • Glycolic Acid

    Glycolic acid is the smallest member of the Alpha Hydroxy Acids (AHA) familly. It rapidly and easily penetrates the epidermis. Due to its high desquamating efficacy (via the destruction of intercellular bonds), it is used by dermatologists in high-concentration for superficial peeling (20% to 70%). Studies have shown that using glycolic acid in a daily cosmetic treatment at low concentrations accelerates shedding of dead cells at the skin surface, for a more even complexion, a smoother surface and improved skin quality. Glycolic acid is one of the key ingredients of Revitalift Laser X3 glycolic peel pads.

FAQ

Everything you need to know about Glycolic Gloss

1. What is hair glossing and why is it beneficial?
Hair glossing is a popular treatment designed to boost your hair's shine and vibrancy. When hair is damaged, its cuticles lift, causing it to reflect light poorly and appear dull. The L'Oréal Paris Elvive Glycolic Gloss at-home glossing routine is designed to counteract this by resurfacing the hair fibre and sealing the cuticles, resulting in intensely shiny, smooth, and healthy-looking hair.
2. How does Glycolic Acid work on hair?
Known as the smallest alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA), Glycolic Acid is able to penetrate the hair fibre. Our Glycolic Gloss complex with Glycolic Acid laminates the cuticles and improves hair quality for glossy hair that lasts.
3. What is hair lamination and how does the Glycolic Gloss routine work?
Hair lamination creates an intense, long-lasting shine. Thanks to its unique pH, our formula, featured in the Glycolic Gloss 5 Minute Lamination Rinse-Off, laminates the cuticle to ensure smoothness and promote long-lasting shine, in just five minutes.
4. Why is the L'Oréal Paris Glycolic Gloss so different?
Our unique complex with Glycolic Acid laminates the hair surface like a shield, providing a hair transformation that lasts through 5 washes1. It is our first at-home glossing routine, inspired by professional treatments, offering an accessible gloss lamination for all hair types.

While the range is formulated for all hair types and is particularly effective on porous hair, those with low porosity hair can also benefit. Glycolic Acid is the smallest AHA, allowing it to effectively penetrate the hair shaft and deliver shine. As with any new product, you can start by using it less frequently to see how your hair responds.
