This vegan skin care brand just launched its Apple Cider Vinegar Resurfacing Peel Pads, which feature the favorite DIY beauty hero they're named after. Apple cider vinegar is naturally rich in AHAs to help exfoliate and reveal brighter skin. This one also includes two additional AHA sources: glycolic acid and orange fruit acids. It's definitely more aggressive than the other products in this roundup, so we advise using it once or twice a week until your skin acclimates.

It's combined with skin-soothing aloe vera, energizing ginseng, witch hazel, biotin and horse chestnut.

It doesn't contain any acids and instead relies on propolis extract, an antiseptic that helps clean the skin. It's the pads themselves that do most of the exfoliating action while hyaluronic acid hydrates and plumps and fruit oils nourish.
