If you’ve yet to try First Aid Beauty — a brand that specializes in treating sensitive skin via glow-inducing, dermatologist-approved active ingredients — now’s an excellent opportunity to do so. For a limited time, the brand is slashing prices by 50 percent on a handful of shopper favorites, including its Resurfacing Liquid 10% AHA treatment, a retexturizing serum I’m most certainly adding to my cart in light of its pore-refining properties.

The First Aid Beauty Skin Lab Resurfacing Liquid is a gentle exfoliating treatment, in serum form, that reveals smoother, more radiant, even-toned skin — both instantly and over time. Furthermore, the leave-on treatment helps reduce the appearance of large pores to deliver a glasslike skin surface. Designed for all skin types, ranging from oily to sensitive and mature, it contains a bevy of dermatologist-approved actives lauded for their complexion-resurfacing powers.
Key among them is a blend of alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs) — a family of chemical exfoliators that smooth and refine skin by sloughing away dead, dull cells from the surface. In addition to revealing softer skin, AHAs refine the appearance of large pores by removing debris, which can otherwise create clogs and, thus, make them appear larger.
Specific acids include lactic acid, which is among the gentles of the AHAs, plus glycolic acid, a hardworking skin-slougher that, as dermatologist Dr. Melanie Palm, M.D., previously told InStyle, “speed[s] skin renewal and turnover.” Furthermore, she added, “It has also been shown to encourage new collagen growth and improve skin texture and fine lines.” Finally, First Aid Beauty’s formula features malic acid, a gentle, fruit-derived exfoliant that also functions as a humectant, or moisture-magnet, and consequently plumps the appearance of fine lines.
Shoppers are seriously impressed by the formula’s skin-smoothing, pore-refining properties. One reviewer says their “pores and uneven skin tone” have “disappeared” since using the serum. Another shopper deems it “so great for [improving] skin texture,” while yet another fan says their skin feels “baby smooth” after a single use. “After a week,” they continue, their “tone has evened out,” and their complexion looks “brand new.”
