I was first introduced to the Priori AHA (Alpha Hydroxy Acids) range some time ago when I began working as a cosmetic clinic manager. This was the very first experience I had of using cosmeceuticals skin care products.
Looking back, I think it was a great range as an introduction to advanced skin care products, as it does not contain an aggressive range of ingredients, and it is gentle, yet still advanced. Additionally, the range benefits many concerns like hydration, exfoliation and anti-ageing.

Alpha Hydroxy Acids have been used for thousands of years as a skin rejuvenating product. Cleopatra is reported to have bathed in sour milk (lactic acid) to improve her complexion.

Lactic acid increases skin moisture content and the skin's natural exfoliation and renewal rate, resulting in a more youthful and healthy appearance.
AHA’s also have a knack of boosting collagen production to help tackle fine lines.

I think the Priori AHA Barrier Repair is a great moisturiser for normal and drier skin types, but not so much for oily skin types. It is ideal for rosacea and sensitive skin types.

It gives the skin more moisture and makes it look brighter with a nice, healthy, radiant glow.

It contains lactic acid that is moisturising and exfoliating, and is lightweight enough not to clog pores, and helps fight the effects of ageing as well.
