layering guidelines to use Skin Editor with:

Exfoliants (Quick Refiner, Quick Refiner for Eyes, Skin Editor, Measured Micrograins +, Pumice Peel, Kerafole):
Exfoliants should be applied first to freshly cleansed skin, to help remove uneven dead skin cells and pave the way for the best absorption of the next products.

Toners (Equalizer, Power Peptide, Soothing Reset Mist, Acne Toner): Think of toner as your “after” step. Use after cleansing, after removing an exfoliating scrub or after removing a mask - to help re-balance skin and lock in the products that follow.

Serums (vc10 Daily Glow, Moisture x10, Stress Solution, Probiotic Anti-Aging Serum, Plump Start, CreateFirm, Age Activist Clinical Youth Serum, Recovery Serum): Serums may be layered, or alternated for morning or night if you prefer not to layer.
vc10 Daily Glow should be applied first before other serums.

Moisturizers (Barrier Fix Daily Hydrator, Crucial Moisture, Absolute Moisture, Beyond Hydration, Remineralist Daily Moisture):
Apply after toning and any serums. Always follow with a broad spectrum sunscreen if daytime.

How does Bioelements test Skin Editor?

We test in the following ways:

Consumer Perception Studies - Bioelements commissioned consumer perception testing on Skin Editor in order to validate and quantify benefits (example: "97% say it improved rough texture.”) This strict perception study was run by 3rd party experts in beauty product testing, wherein a 14-day study was conducted. Chosen participants are given the product(s), follow a strict at-home agenda, and then complete surveys.

Independent Ingredient Testing - We cite independent clinical evaluations, and clinical in-vitro (within a controlled environment/lab), and in-vivo (human) testing to validate the claims of ingredients. These tests are not conducted or commissioned by Bioelements – they are provided to us by the ingredient source.

RIPT, Dermatologist Tests for Safety + Efficacy - We follow strict formula quality control via stability and clinical testing to ensure effectiveness and optimum performance. Tests include human repeat patch tests (RIPT), microbial change, pH testing, viscosity, plus visual, odor and tactile integrity. We also conduct dermatologist testing.

We never test on animals.


Key Ingredients

This powerful AHA exfoliant continues our ongoing mission to deliver what you want: innovative, high-powered and clean formulas, with superior ingredients at clinical levels.

Dual Depth Exfoliation

Deep-penetrating glycolic and mid-penetrating lactic acids work together to provide dual depth exfoliation that stimulates the skin’s self-healing and self-regenerating process.

3% Glycolic Acid

Glycolic acid is one of the smallest molecules so it penetrates quickly and deeply into skin’s surface layers to improve skin elasticity and firmness for smoother, softer and more radiant skin.

7% Lactic Acid

Lactic acid is one of the largest molecules so it penetrates more slowly to mid-depth, to hydrate skin’s layers, smooth roughness and improve clarity and radiance.
