What is it? Monastery Made XX Rose Glycolic gel is an exfoliating serum that contains 10% glycolic acid in a soothing base of rose water.
Notes from the Curator: This glycolic acid serum gently resurfaces the skin leaving it smooth, clear and bright. It works wonderfully overnight but sensitive skins can use this as a 2-5 minute flash mask.
Let’s get Nerdy: Glycolic acid has one of the smallest molecules of all AHAs & therefore is able to penetrate the skin. Glycolic acid helps correct hyperpigmentation & smooth fine lines & it’s really good for combating photoaging. Some studies show that glycolic acid elevates collagen production in dermal fibroblasts & that could be one mechanism by which it helps improve the condition of skin.
Size: 2oz / 60ml

- About the Brand
Monastery was founded by Athena Hewett. Athena has been a certified esthetician now for 20 years, starting her own skincare studio in San Francisco in 2011. Alongside her practice she introduced a skincare line inspired by her childhood summers in the Greek Cyclades, where her grandparents lived & owned an olive grove. Throughout her childhood, Athena learned from her grandmother & her mother, practices of picking & pressing local herbs & turning nuts into oils. Athena combines her love and understanding of plant-based potions, so ingrained in her upbringing, with her training & practice as an esthetician as well as her meticulous attention to sourcing high quality ingredients, to create her beautiful products for Monastery.
