Comments about Mario Badescu Glycolic Skin Renewal Complex:
I have now been using Mario Badescu skin care for about a year and a half, and this is the second time I have purchased the glycolic skin renewal complex. I alternated between this cream and Mario Badescu's ginseng moist cream and I have to say, this one is a little more expensive for a reason. Don't get me wrong, I also loved the ginseng cream, but the Glycolic renewal complex is so thick and luxurious feeling while also not being oily or heavy feeling. I use it as my day + night moisturizer (I am not fancy enough to have separate product for morning vs. night) and it is by far my favorite moisturizer that I've ever used. I use it with the Enzyme Gel Cleanser and the Aloe Toner, which are also great products from Mario Badescu, and my skin feels healthy and balanced. I have slightly sensitive skin, and all of the products from this brand are so kind to my skin! To summarize, the Glycolic Skin Renewal Complex is worth every penny, and it's my favorite moisturizer of all time. If it's out of your budget though, the Ginseng Moist Cream is less luxurious, but still definitely gets the job done.
Pros
- Absorbs Quickly
- Goes On Smoothly
- Moisturizes Well
- Not Greasy
Cons
Best Uses
- Daily Use
- Deep Moisturization
- Dryness
Comments about Mario Badescu Glycolic Skin Renewal Complex:
I use this as my nighttime moisturizer. When I wake up, my skin is super soft and smooth. I have issues with occasional break outs even though I just turned 40, but this hasn't made me break-out at all. I just wish Mario badescu would made a larger, bargain-sized container like some of their other products!

Comments about Mario Badescu Glycolic Skin Renewal Complex:
The jar does have a warning about the peanut oil , in fact it is the second ingredient listed. I've never been allergic to peanuts , but this didn't prove true with this face cream. My eyelids and skin under my eyes swelled and itched greatly. Also lots of itching and irritation on face and neck. This took awhile to clear up as I didn't know what was causing the problem.

Q:
I would like to know what the percentage of glycolic acid is in this product.
Previously another person has asked the same question to which this reply was given "Mario Badescu does not share proprietary information such as the concentration levels of ingredients in their products."
This is not true, because I looked under the question/answer section for the glycolic gel, and the answer was given there, saying that product contains 3% glycolic acid. If Mario Badescu truly doesn't share 'proprietary information', that answer wouldn't have been given either.
Again- what is the percentage of glycolic acid in this cream?Asked on 7/6/2017 by Beauty buff from Washington, dc1 answer
A:
The Glycolic Skin Renewal Complex contains 2.5% glycolic acid.Answered on 7/7/2017 by Brand Expert from Mario Badescu
Q:
