Phytic acid: gentle exfoliation plus chelation
Phytic acid comes from rice and other grains, and it does two jobs at once. As the mildest of the commonly used exfoliating acids it lifts dull surface cells without the sting of glycolic; as a chelator it binds trace metals that would otherwise speed a formula's oxidation — which is why it so often turns up in tone-correcting products where stability matters. Find it in SkinCeuticals P-TIOX, SkinBetter Science Even, Mystro Active Balance Serum, Glycolic 10 Renew Overnight and Trio Rebalancing Moisture Treatment.
Is phytic acid gentler than glycolic acid?
Generally yes — its larger molecule works more slowly at the surface, which makes it a sensible first acid for skin that reacts to stronger AHAs.
