Bye Bye Pores Glycolic Acid Serum

IT Cosmetics Bye Bye Pores Glycolic Acid Serum is a concentrated exfoliating treatment built on 10% glycolic acid, with hyaluronic acid alongside it to keep skin feeling supple rather than stripped. It's a once-daily step aimed squarely at rough texture and the look of enlarged pores.

What it actually does

• Exfoliates with 10% glycolic acid. Glycolic is the smallest of the AHAs, and at this concentration it's a resurfacing-strength step rather than a gentle daily toner.
• Targets the look of pores. IT Cosmetics says pores appear visibly smaller after one week of use — a brand claim about appearance, not pore size itself.
• Keeps hydration in the mix. Hyaluronic acid is included to help hydrate and give a supple feel, which offsets the tight after-feel acids can leave.
• Vegan formula. The brand confirms no animal-derived ingredients.
• Developed with specialists. IT Cosmetics states the serum was developed with input from plastic surgeons and dermatologists, and describes it as suitable for all skin types, including the most sensitive.

How to use

1. Once daily, after cleansing, dispense 4 to 5 drops onto your fingertips.
2. Press it into the face, staying clear of the eye area and lips.
3. Follow with a hydrating moisturiser — IT Cosmetics suggests Confidence in a Gel Lotion.
4. In the morning, always finish with sun protection; the brand recommends its CC+ Cream with SPF 50+.

Safety notes from the brand: don't apply over irritated skin. If the serum reaches your eyes or lips, rinse straight away with water.

Questions

How strong is it?

It contains 10% glycolic acid, which is a meaningful treatment concentration. IT Cosmetics positions it as suitable for all skin types including very sensitive skin, but if you're new to acids, start a few nights a week before going daily.

Can I use it morning and night?

The brand's direction is once a day, not twice. Apply after cleansing, then moisturise; if you use it in the morning, finish with SPF 50+.

Will it dry my skin out?

Hyaluronic acid is built into the formula specifically to support hydration and a supple feel. Following with a moisturiser, as the brand instructs, matters more here than with a gentler serum.

Delivery takes 3 to 21 working days, depending on availability. Stocked items ship sooner; items sourced to order sit at the longer end.
