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.

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.

An absolute game changer!
I’ve been using this product for about 3 months now, and it’s fair to say, it’s absolutely incredible. I use this in combination with a variety of other Sunday Riley products in my skin routine, so I can’t say for certain that this is the only factor, however, my skin feels much brighter and skin tone is more even after just one use. Well worth the money! You only need one pump for your whole face, so the 30ml bottle I have is still mainly full, and that’s after 3 months’ worth of use. A must buy!

Brand new skin
Everybody talks about SR products, and I thought it only was empty hype... But it's not! I've just finished the travel size (7ml - which lasted me for over a month) and I'm in love. It's a serum with a feather-light texture and one pump is enough for the whole face, but I pump it twice as I also apply it on my neck and decolletè. My skin is now more even and brighter: I had few dark spots and residue of some acne from last year, and they've almost completely faded away... ^_^

Good Genes - a Heavenly Skin Saver
Sunday Riley's Good Genes is a must-have favorite of mine and is in my top 5 favorite skin care products that I stock up on all year long! Love, love, love Sunday Riley and I am a skincare junkie that has tried most high end and money saver skin care products but this is a must have. I got my mother to try this and she too now uses this all year round as well!!! I am in my late 30's with very dry skin and blemishes from time to time and with this in my skincare routine my face is supple, plump and wrinkle free :-) I promise you will not be disappointed and Cult Beauty, THANK YOU so much! I am addicted to your wonderful website and awesome products... Sincerely, a very satisfied Customer

Baby skin
I’m new to this cult of skin care. First I used the Drunk Elephant TLC; I was happy at the beginning but in the end I didn’t feel any more effects on my skin. I finished and decided to get one of these. And it’s been amazing so far - smaller pores, reducing blemishes, elasticity and my face is soft as a baby skin. Really happy I purchased this product and probably I will do it again!

Omg! So good
Bought the travel size, after 3 days of using I saw results. My skin is glowing, even skin tone... So good that I immediately bought the full size. I am so happy about it.

Expensive, but excellent
If your budget allows this item and you're having problems similar to mine - go for it, absolutely worth it. Better than any other acid product I tried (Drunk Elephant TLC, Alpha H). I am: 25, acne prone skin with a tendency to scarring and pigmentation. I would NOT use it: - Summer Time - too strong - Mornings - very greasy and horrible under sunscreen - On open/raw areas, like a healing blemish. - It actually helps to heal but hurts. - On a daily basis - waste of product. I would use it: - Occasionally, up to 3 times a week - Over your bare face or after a toner - Start with less than one pump and work your way up Results: even skin tone, minimal blemishes - just the occasional hormonal ones, which have become smaller and quicker to heal, diminishing pigmentation. I'm actually comfortable going around my day without makeup in public, which was a no-go just a year ago.
