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.

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.

No observé mejorías en el rostro. ***I didn't notice improvements in the face.
Es un producto que puede irritar y dar picazón ,los primeros días lo use poco a poco hasta tolerar el producto,no vi ningún resultado del antes al después.Prefiero invertir ese dinero en un buena crema que contenga retinol porque es un ingrediente que da buenos resultados y funciona muy bien. ***It is a product that can irritate and itch. The first days I used it little by little to tolerate the product, I did not see any result. I prefer to invest that money in a good cream that contains retinol because it is an ingredient that gives good results and it works very well.

Quite good
One pump is enough for face and neck, another one needed for decollete. Some areas still tickle when applied. The creamy feeling lasts until evening, and slightly oily when washed. The smell could be improved...

Immediate results
This is the only product that I’ve used and shows results like the next day. Bought the sample size first but I did not even wait for it to finish and bought the full size. An excellent product!

Clean young skin
I did not believe that this product would be so good. But when I started to use it, I realised that Good Genes Glycolic Acid Treatment really deserves all these great reviews. After two weeks of use, I noticed that my skin looked younger, cleaner and smoother. The serum brightens my skin and evens it out. It is very pleasant to use - it has a light, unobtrusive aroma with a beautiful texture. I bought the 30ml bottle, when it is finished I'll be sure to buy the 50ml.
