Description
AHA Fruit Acids - Cellular Renewal and Radiance through Natural Exfoliation
AHA Fruit Acids represent a high-performance botanical complex extracted from a combination of five plants: bilberry, sugar cane, orange, lemon, and sugar maple. This active ingredient is the natural source of the most effective alpha-hydroxy acids (Lactic, Glycolic, Citric, Malic, and Tartaric), recognized for their ability to gently exfoliate dead cells and accelerate the regeneration of the epidermis. The result is visibly smoother skin, a refined texture, and a natural glow, without the aggression of purely synthetic chemical peels.
Ingredients (INCI): Aqua, Vaccinium Myrtillus Fruit Extract, Saccharum Officinarum Extract, Citrus Aurantium Dulcis Fruit Extract, Citrus Limon Fruit Extract, Acer Saccharum Extract.
Technical Characteristics
- Acid Source: Lactic Acid (Bilberry), Glycolic Acid (Sugar cane), Citric Acid (Lemon/Orange), Malic and Tartaric Acids (Maple).
- Appearance: Yellowish liquid
- Solubility: Completely water-soluble.
- Function: Biological exfoliant (keratolytic), moisturizing agent, collagen synthesis stimulator.
Performance and Studies
The product has been tested by the manufacturer to demonstrate its ability to improve skin appearance through natural mechanisms:
- Acceleration of Cellular Turnover: Efficacy studies show a significant increase in the cellular renewal rate, helping to remove the thickened stratum corneum. Results indicate that at a 5% rate, it is capable of increasing cellular renewal by +24.0% and induced a 108.41% change in pigmentation.
- Texture Improvement: By eliminating keratin buildup on the surface, AHA acids reduce the appearance of fine lines and even out the skin's micro-relief.
- Brightening Effect: Helps fade superficial pigmentation spots and restore radiance to dull skin.
- Moisturizing Boost: An in-vivo hydration study was conducted over a three-day period to evaluate the moisturizing benefits of the 5.0% active in a body wash formula. The study results indicate that the ingredient was able to improve hydration levels on the first day, at 8 hours by 7.5%, and by 16.4% at 24 hours. On the second day, hydration was improved by 25.8% after 8 hours and by 14.0% after 24 hours. The results indicate the capacity to increase the degree of hydration over time, even when used in rinse-off applications.
Main Properties
- Gentle Exfoliation: Acts by weakening the cohesion of corneocytes, leaving the skin fresh and "revived."
- Anti-Aging: Indirectly contributes to stimulating the production of glycosaminoglycans in the dermis. Improves skin tone and condition. Smooths fine lines to help minimize the appearance of wrinkles.
- Purifying: Ideal for acne-prone skin, helping to keep pores clean.
- Hair Active: Improves hair smoothness, ease of combing, overall appearance, and hair shine.
- Evening Out: Reduces the visibility of imperfections and post-acne marks. Brightens the complexion, combats a dull appearance, and helps fade pigmentation spots and skin irregularities.
Usage Recommendations
General recommended dosage: 1% - 10%.
Cosmetic ingredient targeting skin concerns such as rough skin, surface wrinkles and fine lines, problematic skin, and mature skin.
Ideal for anti-aging treatments, radiance-boosting, brightening, or skin-toning formulas, as well as for purifying, cleansing, or peeling formulations.
Applications
- Brightening serums and tonics.
- Anti-wrinkle and regenerating night creams.
- Cleansing gels with a micro-peeling effect.
- Revitalizing facial masks.
- Body treatments for rough skin.
Formulation Guide
- Procedure: Add during the final phase of preparation or in the aqueous phase, cold.
- pH Management: The efficacy of AHA acids depends on the pH. For optimal exfoliation results, the pH of the final product should be between 3.5 and 4.5.
- Synergies:
- For radiance: Combine with Arbutin (AHA helps with the penetration of arbutin).
- For hydration and soothing: Associate with Betaine, which protects cells from the osmotic stress that can occur during exfoliation.
- For deep regeneration: Use alongside Hyaluronic Acid to compensate for the exfoliation process with intense hydration.
- For post-treatment: Bio Mallow Extract is recommended to soothe the skin after peeling.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
When should AHA products be applied?
It is recommended for use especially in the evening, but it can also be applied during the day. The use of a cream with SPF is indicated, as exfoliation increases the skin's sensitivity to UV radiation.
Can tingling occur?
Yes, a slight tingling sensation is normal at the beginning of use, indicating the activity of the acids. If intense redness occurs, reduce the dosage or the frequency of application.
Safety in Use
Profile: Natural source, biodegradable.
Precautions: External cosmetic use. Avoid contact with eyes. Do not apply to irritated skin or open wounds.
Storage: In a cool place (15-25°C), protected from direct light.

A very useful product for blemished skin. Since I've been using it, my complexion is more even and spots are starting to fade.
I have used this product for my complexion and have noticed an improvement in my skin. Provides luminosity
I used this product to prepare an anti-acne exfoliating serum. I consider it to be a good product since the serum has demonstrated its properties for more than 3 months (minimum shelf life of the serum).
I found this product much more effective in hair care than skin care. Used in shampoo, it helps the hair in combing and leaves it intensely shiny
I use this ingredient in my shampoo for color-treated hair because it improves the smoothness, combability, overall look and shine of my hair.
I recreated the formula on the website of exfoliating scrub with AHA for acne prone skin. After 2 weeks of use, blackheads are much easier to clear, the complexion brighter and more even. Properly dosed, this ingredient works wonders!
It has a much more acidic ph compared to TDS, I measured it at 3.8. I use it as an exfoliant, you have to be careful with the ph.
A product that improves skin tone and appearance and works for a smooth complexion. It is a good exfoliator
This ingredient needs no introduction, from my point of view it is a real elixir, I use it in all exfoliating products for both skin and body, I recommend using it according to the manufacturer's instructions.
So far I have been using AHA acids for the anti-wrinkle effect. The toner created is gentle on dry skin. The effects are instantly recognizable. After use, the complexion feels moisturized, firmer and brighter. I'll come back with my opinion once I've tried its exfoliating effects.
I ordered this product after reading the reviews. I find it very ok and I will order it again
An effective tool in the fight for clear skin: evens out the relief and actively fights inflammation, renewing the cells of the epidermis. But it must be used very carefully.
It is easy to use and easy to dose. I use it at night, in an exfoliating lotion with 5% AHA, recipe on the Elemental website. The effects are visible, the complexion is radiant.
AHA Fruit Acids are my favorite fruit acids, they go very well with BHA for peeing and acne.
The fruit acids are in the skin and body creams, the skin feels soft and velvety after application. I recommend!
I use it in all cleansers and toners , I would also like to make an exfoliating body gel. Wonderful active , easy to integrate into formulas.
In the cold season I use preparations with different acids and see an improvement in the appearance of the skin, freckles disappear almost completely, brown spots fade and the face becomes brighter! It's worth it!
The product is very good and effective, I use it in cleanser for problematic skin in foamer type bottle.
I use it. I use it in Exfoliating serums, so if you want to get rid of blemishes this is the solution , especially as it is regenerative, renewing at cellular level and leads to collagen synthesis.
