How to use
  1. This is for skin that already tolerates acids. If it is your first AHA, start with the 10% Mandelic Resurface.
  2. Patch test on the inner forearm and wait 24 hours before the first use.
  3. In the evening, on clean, completely dry skin, spread a thin layer over the face. Avoid the eye area.
  4. Leave it on overnight. Follow with the Barrier Repair Cream after a few minutes if your skin wants it.
  5. Use once a week to start, and never two nights running.
  6. Do not combine with retinoids, vitamin C or the Mandelic Resurface on the same night. Wear sunscreen the next morning.
  • Store below 25 °C, away from direct sunlight
  • Close tightly after use — air is what degrades the actives
  • Use within 6 months of opening
  • Keep each product in its own container; a refill pouch goes only into its matching Seravane jar

Questions

Asked about Overnight AHA Peel

How strong is it?

Glycolic acid at 8% and lactic acid at 4%, a combined 12%, at pH 3.5, in a leave-on gel. It is the strongest thing Seravane sells, which is why it has the most explicit instructions.

Can I use it more than once a week?

Start at once a week. Some experienced users move to twice a week after a month or so, with at least two nights between. It is never for two nights running, and more often does not mean better results.

What should I not mix it with?

Retinoids, vitamin C and the 10% Mandelic Resurface. Use those on other nights. Niacinamide, the Ceramide Serum and the Barrier Repair Cream are fine alongside it.

Do I rinse it off?

No, it is a leave-on overnight gel. Cleanse as usual the next morning and apply sunscreen.

Is it suitable during pregnancy?

Whether it is suitable during pregnancy is something to confirm with your doctor or OB, since that depends on your situation rather than on the product alone. The published formula is glycolic acid 8% and lactic acid 4% at pH 3.5.

My skin is red the next day. What now?

Stop using it and keep your routine to a mild cleanser and moisturizer until your skin is fully settled. If the redness, burning or swelling worsens or does not settle, see a professional, and please write to us so it is on record.

  1. Vanessa R.

    Verified buyer

    Normal, dull

    Sunday night ritual

    Once a week on Sunday. Monday morning my skin looks smoother and more awake. I have not been tempted to do it more often because the label is so firm about it.

  2. Ian M.

    Verified buyer

    Combination, textured

    Strong. Respect it.

    I have used acids for years and this still tingles for a minute. Good results on rough patches along my jaw. One star off because the bottle makes it easy to dispense too much.

  3. Rosa D.

    Verified buyer

    Dry, textured

    Rough patches on my forehead are smoother

    After six weekly uses the texture on my forehead is much more even to the touch. I follow with the barrier cream every time.

  4. Kelsey P.

    Verified buyer

    Sensitive

    Too strong for me, and I should have listened

    The page says it is for experienced acid users and to start with the mandelic. I skipped that advice and my cheeks were red for two days. That is on me, but I want other people to actually read the instructions.

  5. Andre W.

    Verified buyer

    Oily

    Honest instructions

    It tells you what not to mix it with, in plain words, on the carton. I wish every brand did that.

  6. Mina C.

    Verified buyer

    Combination

    Works well, slight tackiness

    The gel stays a bit tacky until I put moisturizer over it. Results are worth it.

  7. Fiona G.

    Verified buyer

    Normal

    Glow without the peeling

    I expected flaking and got none. Just smoother skin the next morning.

  8. Darius K.

    Verified buyer

    Combination

    Good, but often low in stock

    The product is good. My complaint is that it has been sold out twice when I went to reorder. I signed up for the back-in-stock email, which did work.

  9. Ellie N.

    Verified buyer

    Normal to dry

    Replaced my salon peel habit

    I use it once a week and my skin looks consistently smoother. I do not push it past that.
