CeraVe Nightly Exfoliating Treatment — Overnight AHA Exfoliation That Reveals Visibly Better Skin by Morning
As skin ages, its natural cellular turnover process slows. Dead skin cells accumulate on the surface rather than shedding naturally — resulting in dullness, uneven texture, enlarged pores, and dark spots that no regular moisturiser can address. The CeraVe Nightly Exfoliating Treatment targets this directly with a clinically formulated 5% AHA blend of glycolic acid and lactic acid — a leave-on overnight serum that accelerates surface cell renewal, clears dead skin cells, and progressively reveals smoother, brighter, more radiant skin. Without flaking. Without redness. Without disrupting the skin barrier. Now available in Pakistan at Khayest as the 100% original imported formula.
Why Chemical Exfoliation at Night Outperforms Any Other Approach
Physical scrubs tear at the skin surface, causing micro-tears and inflammation. Standard face washes rinse away before active ingredients can work. The CeraVe nightly exfoliant takes a fundamentally different approach — a leave-on treatment that stays on the skin overnight, allowing the AHA blend to work continuously through the hours when the skin's own renewal process is naturally at its peak. The result of consistent nightly use, confirmed in clinical observation, is progressive and cumulative — skin looks healthier, radiance improves, and the appearance of wrinkles, dullness, dark spots, and enlarged pores is measurably reduced. After just one week: skin tone looks more even, pores appear minimised, and signs of fatigue are visibly reduced.
The 5% AHA Blend — How Glycolic Acid and Lactic Acid Work Together
Glycolic acid and lactic acid are both alpha-hydroxy acids but with meaningfully different profiles — and combining them at a total 5% concentration in this formula is what makes the CeraVe Nightly Exfoliating Treatment both effective and tolerable for all skin types.
Glycolic acid has the smallest molecular size of all AHAs — allowing it to penetrate deepest into the skin surface to dissolve the bonds holding dead cells together, accelerate cellular turnover, and stimulate collagen synthesis over time. Lactic acid is larger-moleculed, works more at the skin's surface, and has the added benefit of being a natural humectant that actually draws moisture into the skin as it exfoliates — making it significantly gentler than glycolic acid alone. Together at 5%, they deliver meaningful exfoliation results without the harshness of higher single-acid formulas.
Key Ingredients and Their Individual Roles
-
Glycolic Acid + Lactic Acid (5% AHA Blend): Chemically dissolve the bonds between dead skin cells — accelerating surface cell renewal to visibly smooth fine lines and wrinkles, fade dark spots, minimise enlarged pores, and restore radiance with consistent overnight use. Lactic acid simultaneously hydrates the skin as it exfoliates.
-
Phenylethyl Resorcinol: A potent, targeted brightening ingredient that specifically inhibits the enzyme responsible for melanin production — visibly reducing the appearance of dark spots, uneven pigmentation, and sun-induced discolouration over time. Works synergistically with the AHA exfoliation to accelerate brightening results.
-
Licorice Root Extract (Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate): Provides additional brightening support by blocking melanin synthesis, while also delivering anti-inflammatory and antioxidant protection to calm the skin throughout overnight exfoliation.
-
3 Essential Ceramides (NP, AP, EOP): Restore and reinforce the skin barrier throughout chemical exfoliation — preventing the barrier disruption and moisture loss that AHA treatments can otherwise cause. This is the key reason the CeraVe formula exfoliates effectively without causing flaking or redness.
-
Hyaluronic Acid (Sodium Hyaluronate): Attracts and retains moisture at the skin surface, keeping exfoliated skin deeply hydrated and comfortable throughout the night.
-
Glycerin: A powerful humectant that adds a sustained secondary layer of hydration alongside hyaluronic acid, supporting skin comfort throughout the overnight treatment.
-
MVE Technology: CeraVe's patented delivery system that continuously releases ceramides and moisturising ingredients for up to 24-hour hydration per application — maintaining barrier protection and skin comfort alongside the exfoliating action.
CeraVe Nightly Exfoliant — Potent Enough to Work, Gentle Enough for All Skin Types
The most significant clinical achievement of the CeraVe Skin Renewing Nightly Exfoliating Treatment is its ability to deliver meaningful AHA exfoliation results without the side effects — no redness, no flaking, no sensitivity — that typically accompany chemical exfoliant use. This is the result of the ceramide-rich barrier-protective base working in tandem with the AHA blend, and the formula's careful pH balancing to ensure efficacy while maintaining skin comfort. It is suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin — making it accessible to a far broader audience than most AHA treatments on the market.

How to Use CeraVe Nightly Exfoliating Treatment
Apply the CeraVe nightly exfoliating treatment in the evening to clean, dry skin — press the pump 5 to 6 times on first use to prime it. Apply evenly across the face, avoiding the eye and lip area. Allow to absorb fully, then follow with your CeraVe Skin Renewing Night Cream for added peptide anti-ageing and overnight moisture. Daily broad-spectrum SPF the following morning is non-negotiable — AHAs increase the skin's photosensitivity, and unprotected UV exposure will directly counteract the brightening and anti-ageing results you are working to achieve. Both products are available at Khayest as 100% original imported formulas.
Who Should Use This Treatment
The CeraVe Nightly Exfoliating Treatment is ideal for anyone dealing with dullness, uneven skin tone, dark spots, fine lines, enlarged pores, or rough skin texture — particularly those who want to introduce effective chemical exfoliation into their routine without the harshness, sensitivity, or inconvenience of higher-strength AHA products. It is equally suitable for those beginning to address early signs of ageing and those managing established pigmentation concerns. Its ceramide-protective base makes it a genuinely accessible AHA treatment for all skin types — including sensitive skin that has previously found chemical exfoliants difficult to tolerate.
