This is a good AHA product. I'd suggest putting lotion over the areas of your face that tend to be dry after applying this b/c this product is in gel form, not lotion form.

I tried a few alpha hydroxy products on market. This is the best. My skin is clean and clear. The product is not sticky. I use it with 2% BHA. Love them. Definitely buy them again.
