    An affordable, and effective option (fullprice $15 for 2 oz, less on sale). This rich cream is ideal for me to use as a treatment night cream in one. I have very sensitive oily combo skin and I...

    As others have said, this does smell chemically. I had an good experience with this for a while. I experienced slight burning which calmed initially and I could even wear it overnight. This...

    This is an okay cream for me. I feel like it does a good job exfoliating my skin, but I can't use it very often because if I'm not very careful, it causes sensitivity and increased redness. Used...

    This product is pretty good. I use it every night when I am not doing peels (I am into peels right now). I wish it was a little stronger though maybe 15% or more. My skin handles acids pretty...

    This product works wonders! With it being 10% glycolic acid it tightens the skin almost immediately! Super inexpensive. I would pay big bucks for this even if it wasnt so reasonably priced. This...

    For a long time, I've been a bit bias against AHAs. I knew their purpose and all, but I thought BHAs were superior. BHAs cause less sun sensitivity, they get down to the pore to clear breakups,...
