Powered by science and balanced by botanicals, Sunday Riley's supercharged skin care delivers visible, measurable results. Created by Sunday Riley herself, the brand uses her 20+ years of experience as a cosmetics chemist and product formulator, to bring to life everyday essentials that enhance the quality of your complexion. A case in point is the Good Genes Glycolic Acid Treatment (30ml), an exfoliating powerhouse that revives the look of dull, lacklustre skin.
Looking to boost your complexion's radiance? Sunday Riley has you covered with the Good Genes Glycolic Acid Treatment (30ml).
Starring tiny glycolic acid molecules, this serum-textured treatment breaks apart pore-clogging debris to brighten skin. Alongside this, lactic acid exfoliates (AKA swifts away dead skin cells), while prickly pear extract soothes and lemongrass extract refreshes. This potent potion of ingredients improves the look of pigmentation and plumps fine lines. If that wasn't enough, it can be used daily to give your complexion a moisture boost or applied as a treatment mask to get skin glowing ahead of a special occasion.
Water/Eau/Aqua, Dimethicone, Glycolic Acid, Caprylyl Caprylate/Caprate, Ppg-12/Sdmi Copolymer, Squalane, Propanediol, Cetearyl Alcohol, Potassium Lactate, Bis-stearyl Dimethicone, Cymbopogon Schoenanthus Oil, Glycerin, Potassium Hydroxide, Ppg-24-glycereth-24, Sodium Phytate, Xanthan Gum, Hydroxyethyl Acrylate/Sodium Acryloyldimethyl Taurate Copolymer, Glyceryl Stearate, Peg-100 Stearate, Palmitic Acid, Stearic Acid, Phenoxyethanol, Opuntia Ficus-indica Fruit Extract, Ceteareth-20, Caprylyl Glycol, Chlorphenensin, Saccharomyces Cerevisiae Extract, Sorbitan Isostearate, Potassium Sorbate, Sodium Benzoate.

Too Strong
This product gives you a beautiful glow but be warned.. this is strong! Even if you are used to using very strong aids this compromised my skin barrier when used as often as directed. As I type this I am wearing it as a mask and it's extremely tingly, even after giving it a break to heal my skin. So overall, great product gives you a nice glow and surely exfoliates the skin, but I would give a word of caution to those considering purchasing.

Baby Soft Skin
Love this! Feels so nice on the skin and doesn't sting too much like other AHAs I've tried. Really deep exfoliation and has made a huge difference to my hyperpigmentation. I apply this at night and my skin feels baby soft the next day. Really recommend this product!

Best skincare product
I love this product...so much. I wake up to visibly-different skin. It is clearer, more even, slightly plumper & pores reduced. Not only that, but when using this product, I rarely get spots & when I do they are far less severe than before. This really is a game-changer & I would happily recommend it to anyone.

Transformative
This has transformed my skin- amazing. reduced fine lines, improved texture and far smaller pores and reduced redness - this has really improved my mild rosacia. I am in my early 50's and this has taken years off and rejuvenated my skin. i have stopped wearing makeup- no need. Cost- worth every penny and I now always keep a back up. you only need a tiny bit of this- half a pump every night works perfectly.

Only thing that has worked, but runs out quick!
I started using this at the start of lockdown as having to wear masks for 12 hour shifts caused loads of breakouts. I first bought the smaller bottle which lasted me 3 months (which I thought was not long enough) I would only use 1 squirt a day which worked perfectly. I then bought the bigger bottle which has lasted me 4 months with the same usage. I find for the price, that it runs out too quick for me. However, saying that, it works SO well! I use it alongside Luna also and rarely wear make up now.

I do not know how to measure the effects of skin products, but this feels amazing and I end up buying it over and over again.

A repeat purchase for YEARS
This is something I’ve been repurchasing for years, every time I’ve tried to try something new my skin just doesn’t like it and so I come back to good genes. I was concerned when they switched things out from lactic acid to glycolic acid but after first trying it instantly still does exactly the same as the lactic acid formula. I use this along side the Luna oil and the Charlotte tilbury magic cream and honestly the 3 of them are incredible together. I’m a make up artist by trade and I always tell my clients make up is only 20% of your look, the other 80% is your skin care. I spend most days now wearing zero make up because this product has truly made me happy with my skin!
