Overview
QRxLabs' C-GLYC-6 is a 6 fluid ounce gel cleanser built around 5% glycolic acid, an AHA meant to exfoliate the skin's surface during daily washing. It's formulated for the face but the listing also flags it as body safe, with razor bumps and ingrown hairs called out as a specific use case.
Alongside the glycolic acid, the formula lists vitamin E, sweet almond oil, coconut milk, papaya extract, aloe juice, jojoba oil, chamomile extract, honey, royal jelly extract and propolis extract as supporting ingredients. It's unscented and marketed as fragrance free, paraben free and silicone free, which matters for anyone who reacts to added fragrance in exfoliating products.
- 5% glycolic acid AHA exfoliant
- 6 fl oz gel, unscented
- Body safe, aimed at razor bumps and ingrown hairs
- Fragrance, paraben and silicone free
Who it's for
Fits people with normal to combination skin who want a daily chemical exfoliant rather than a scrub, and anyone dealing with razor bumps or ingrown hairs who wants a cleanser doing double duty on the body. Not the pick for anyone already using another daily AHA or BHA, since layering exfoliants can irritate skin.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- 5% glycolic acid at a wash off, daily use concentration
- Fragrance free, paraben free and silicone free
- Body safe, useful for razor bumps and ingrown hairs
- Listed for all skin types
- No SPF, so daytime sun protection is still needed after use
- Ranked outside the top 100 facial cleansing gels on Amazon, a smaller seller in its category
Performance notes
As a wash off gel cleanser, it works during the brief contact time of a normal wash rather than as a leave on treatment, so the 5% glycolic acid concentration is doing gentler, cumulative work over daily use rather than a single strong peel.
