Actual % of AHA & BHA in M-61 PowerGlow Peel?

Has anyone been able to find out the actual percentage of AHA and BHA in each PowerGlow peel pad? I received a 3-pack in my Allure box last month, and my skin seems to like them... but I’m reluctant to buy more without knowing the actual acid percentages! Also, does anyone else find it a little sketchy that the brand is so secretive about this? TIA!

It’s 7%

After reading ingredient list- About 90% if their ingredients are BHA and AHA products. The higher on list the more percentage and the ones highest on list are mainly AHA the middle has AHA and BHA too so I’d say after reading them all it is 60-70% AHA and 30-40% BHA !

Side note: being the second ingredient alcohol denat is not good for skin.  It is used in creams to make them lighter, but too much of it can cause rudeness irritation and dryness.

Water and alcohol are the first two ingredients; there's no way this is a 90% acid product.

Some companies are very cagey about protecting their "trade secrets" and won't release the percentages of actives in their formulas. It's disappointing, but not surprising. If that info is important to you (and it should be...you're right to be put off by it), look for products and companies that are willing to be a little more transparent with their info.

Alcohol denat is not good for skin. I wouldn’t use it especially cause I have dry sensitive skin
