Australian Skincare Brand Unveils New Glycolic Scrub with Native Desert Peach

Skinstitut, a popular Australian skincare brand, has launched a new limited-edition version of its best-selling Glycolic Scrub 14%. The updated product, named the Glycolic Scrub 14% with Australian Desert Peach, features a fresh peachy scent derived from quandong, a native Australian fruit, and comes in new packaging. The brand has been teasing the new product, generating anticipation among its customers.

The dermatologist-backed brand stated that the aim was not to reinvent a beloved product but to offer a new reason for customers to discover it. Taylor Carswell, Skinstitut Head of Innovation, explained that the original Glycolic Scrub 14% has a loyal following due to its ability to deliver a visibly polished skin finish through a combination of chemical and physical exfoliation. The limited-edition version retains this core formula while introducing the distinct Australian element of Desert Peach and an enhanced sensory experience.

The scrub's formula centers on a dual-action exfoliation system, combining 14% glycolic acid with silica beads. This approach is designed to address concerns such as dullness, uneven texture, and congestion, ultimately revealing brighter, smoother, and more radiant-looking skin. The quandong, or Desert Peach, ingredient is noted for its antioxidant properties and vitamin C content, contributing to the scrub's refreshing scent and supporting hydrated, healthy-looking skin.

Initial trials suggest the new scrub provides immediate results, leaving skin feeling smoother, softer, and fresher without a stripped or tight sensation. The product is also noted for its versatility, functioning as both a facial cleanser and a body scrub. Its non-abrasive formula has been effective in addressing dry, flaky patches on the face, arms, and legs without causing irritation, even for those with sensitive or acne-prone skin. While the product instructions recommend use one to three times a week depending on skin tolerance, some users have found it suitable for more frequent use without causing dryness.

The packaging has also been updated with a playful palette of pink, purple, and yellow, housed in a pink tube that hints at the fruity fragrance. The scent itself is described as fresh, fruity, and subtly sweet without being overpowering. Early user reviews of Skinstitut's Glycolic Scrub 14% have consistently praised its texture, effectiveness, and the smooth, refreshed feeling it leaves on the skin. Many report receiving compliments on their complexion after use.

Skinstitut, established in 2008, focuses on offering cosmeceutical-grade, clinically proven products at accessible price points. The brand's origin in a clinic setting underpins its professional expertise and commitment to delivering visible results. The Glycolic Scrub 14% with Australian Desert Peach is positioned as a limited-time offering, designed to provide a professional-style exfoliating experience at home.
