Description: Malic acid (MA), a sort of alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs) found in fruits and many vegetables, has been commonly used in cosmetics and chemical peeling agents . Malic acid is used for light-damaged or dry skin, and acne. Carnosine has been shown to act as an antioxidant by scavenging free radicals and singlet oxygen, thereby reducing oxidative stress.
