    My aesthetician recommended I try this in April. Trusting her judgement, I ordered a sample-sized bottle on eBay. My skin felt smoother and better hydrated, so I ordered a full bottle after going...

    I have only been using this for a week and luckily I only purchased the trial size on amazon for $27. I have oily acne prone skin and this has made my skin sticky and more oily. I have tried it at...

    Sadly, this caused significant breakouts to the point of scarring on my cheeks. The cysts stopped as soon as I discontinued using this, but they are taking a long time to heal. For a professional...

    This stuff amazes me. I've never experienced anything even close to it. When they mentioned it has the same effect as 20% glycolic acid, I was concerned that it might sting my skin like other...

    Another fantastic product by Skinceuticals. I use this at night, sometimes alone because it lightly hydrates and sometimes with one of the Skinceutical moisturizers if my skin feels dry. It...

    I LOVE this serum! It claims to be equivalent to a 20% daily gylcolic treatment. Whoever is saying this has glycolic in it needs to do their research. Anyways, this exfoliates my skin without...

    Love this! Not sure how others are getting a "tacky" feeling. I was told to use moisturizer on top but no need, it does it all. I feel radiant!

    First, I have fickle skin. It is dry, it flakes, it doesn't like products and the texture has always been blah. Some light scarring marks, etc. This stuff made an ENORMOUS difference in my skin. It...

    I'm a fan of the Intense Line Defense, which is now being replaced by the Retexturing Activator. I have been using RA for the past month and seen little difference. However what annoys me the most...

    I didn't really see any visible results from this product. I received a sample from a beautician. It's light and watery so absorbs okay in the skin. I use a few drops after cleansing at night...

    Well, it has been about one week since I started to use this product. I must say that my skin is too sensitive & acne-prone. I have large visible pores and recently I realised that they also...

    HG exfoliator! This is truly the only exfoliating product I would dare put on my face. I used to be in love with traditional AHA and BHA (especially the Alpha Hydrox 12% glycolic acid souffle) But...

    I have used many alpha and beta hydroxy acid products and was excited to try this one as I'm a huge fan of SC. To me it felt tacky on my skin and it didn't seem to absorb well. I didn't notice a...

    I have happily used Skinceuticals B5 gel for some time, but when my last bottle ran out I decided to give this a try since it claims to hydrate as well as improve skin texture. I bought a small...

    I am loving this product. The thing I love most about it, NO down time. I don't have to wait 20 minutes and wash it off, and I don't find it to be drying. It is helping to dry up any little nasty...

    This product is moisturizing as it is in a base of hyaluronic acid; however, I did not find it to help with the texture or pore-size of my skin. I've always had better results with retinols or,...
