| Verdict | Alpha-H's Liquid Gold range is the Australian gold standard for exfoliation — the original Liquid Gold (glycolic acid treatment) has been an Australian cult product for 20+ years. The Midnight Reboot Serum is the overnight evolution: retinol + vitamin C (stabilized as ascorbyl tetraisopalmitate) + glycolic acid + peptides in a multi-correcting night serum that targets fine lines, uneven tone, and texture simultaneously. The multi-active approach is more aggressive than single-active serums, so it's not for beginners — but for experienced active-users, it's the 'everything serum' for nighttime. Australian cosmeceutical R&D at its most ambitious. | The serum every beauty editor name-drops. Peptides, bakuchiol, multiple actives — genuinely multi-tasking. |
