Abstract
⺠10% glycolic acid lotions reportedly increase skin damage after UV light exposure. ⺠Penetration of AHAs into human skin is pH-, concentration-, and time-dependent. ⺠We examine in vitro human skin penetration of AHAs in rinse-off products. ⺠Rinsing within minutes removes >99% of AHAs in rinse-off products from the skin. ⺠AHAs in rinse-off products likely do not increase UV-dependent skin effects.
