Caprae Lac Description
Caprae lac (AKA goat milk) is a skin care ingredient that soothes and conditions. It contains antioxidants, fatty acids and lactic acid bacteria.
The lactic acid, an alpha hydroxy acid, within this ingredient can possibly exfoliate skin. However, if exfoliation is your goal, you’ll do better choosing a lactic acid exfoliant where the percentage of lactic acid is outlined.
The components within caprae lac work with one another to keep skin balanced, soothed, soft and protected from the visible damage that harmful external aggressors cause. Beyond this, studies show caprae lac has antimicrobial activity that may help support a cosmetic’s preservative system.
Note: topical use of caprae lac can be allergenic for some people. If you have dairy allergies, consult your health care provider before using this ingredient
