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.

Love this product!
I have a combination skin that breaks out every now and then, after using good genes it rarely does! When I say rarely I meant I had a small blemish that vanished the day after. My skin is glowy and flawless. Will repurchase for sure.

And the Oscar goes to...
I'm 35 and middle eastern. Not many problems with my skin except a few fine lines around my eyes, and some dullness. I have purchased this product 4 times already. It is a holly grail. I advise every one to have it on their routine. not required to be used daily; too expensive! start off with twice a week, and build up to 3 if needed. I prefer this to the original lactic acid, the results are so visible! my fine lines have disappeared, skin is glowing, and even old pigmentations (which used to be barely noticeable) have gone. I love it. so worth the money.

Bring back lactic acid!
Now the formulation of this has changed from lactic to glycolic this product is completely different on me. EU regulation required it but still, if your someone who doesn’t suit glycolic or have tried it and not lactic then try and you will see the difference. I’ve now moved onto the Oskia liquid peel which is lactic and niacinamide. So much better than this formulation. Love most other Sunday products.

Love it so far, but...
First I ordered a mini version because, let’s be honest, it’s quite pricy. I was so flashed by the first night with it. My skin was just glowing, my acne was so much better in a short time. And I still really love it, I buy it over and over again but the only thing I really hate in it is dryness. My skin is oily and I never had anything, that would make it so dry. And I‘ve tried a lot of acid stuff. I will definitely continue to use it and I’m sure, it will show me more results after some months or so. But if you buy it, it will need a super moisturizer.

LOVE THIS PRODUCT!!
I’m never one to leave reviews but I thought I had to with this product! I’ve been using this every evening after cleansing and before moisturiser for one month now and my skin is FLAWLESS!! I used with the Juno Oil if my skin is feeling dull or dry and this is amazing for hungover skin. I have combination skin which often breaks out but I’ve had nothing with this so it’s amazing!! 100% recommend and 100% will repurchase.

could be better
I bought Good Genes Glycolic Acid and The Ordinary Lactic Acid. After two weeks using can say that for me Lactic Acid works better and price much more suitable. Maybe it's going to take a lot longer to feel better result so I will continue to use GG and look at the effect.
