Allkinds is a pioneering self-care brand for Gen Alpha and one of its latest launches, Fresh Face Gentle Exfoliating Drops, introduces a youth-safe chemical exfoliant.
Kids are eager to try the latest skincare trends on TikTok and sometimes, collectible, pretty packaging is more of a concern than product formulas that are suitable for their skin. Harsh ingredients like acids are usually too strong for young skin but Allkinds' Fresh Face Gentle Exfoliating Drops features a natural source of AHAs and is described as "mildly acidic while being gentle enough for young skin and everyday use."
Lime Pearl Extract derived from Caviar Lime gives this product its brightening and smoothing benefits, and this natural source of AHAs is paired with glycerin to support the moisture barrier and calming calendula extract.
