Review on Alpha Skin Care Essential Renewal Lotion: Powerful Anti-Aging Formula with 10% Glycolic Alpha Hydroxy Acid (AHA) for Reducing Lines & Wrinkles - Ideal for Normal to Dry Skin, 4 Oz by Greg Stevenson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

You have to know how to use it

At first I objected that glycolic cream wouldn't cause a rash. Having combination skin I assumed I would be safe using the product as it is intended for dry skin as it certainly cannot dry out my skin too much. Well I was right and I'm glad I bought it. I've been using it for a week already, starting gently (every other day) and I can say I'm impressed with the cleansing of this product on my face: acne is gone, smooth skin, much less pigmented spots. I didn't have a lot of acne, but it still makes my skin look very healthy. I really recommend it, but this is how I use it: - Start small: a few days a week, a small layer of this cream - If you have never used glycolic acid, start with only 10% glycolic acid content and NOT higher, all the way mention it if you have dry skin and use as a treatment cream afterwards (I use Avene) as the glycolic acid can sting a bit and a moisturizer with SPF to avoid severe drying! If you have a foundation or BB cream with SPF afterwards, even better! (I prefer the BB cream as it's lighter) I've bought all three products, the glycolic acid body cream and the wrinkle repair cream and they're both very good and work just as well. Also be careful which SELLER you use from, I received my package fine, nothing leaked, it was well packed BUT the box with the cream was forcefully opened, the bottle wasn't sealed either, which is a HUGE one Minus is, very unprofessional, so I, for example, I will find another seller. There's no excuse for that, if I cry it doesn't mean I'm ready to share my product with someone else! So I give the product 5 stars and the seller MINUS ONE.
