Talented, brilliant, incredible, amazing

This is the only product I've ever reviewed, but that's just because this is the only thing that has actually worked for me. I'm 20 and was blessed with acne when I was just 9 years old (as you can tell, genetics are not my friend) and I have tried every product you can imagine. I spent so much mone...

Disappointed

I was very disappointed in this product. It was very harsh on my combination skin and worked well at first but my skin began to go back to the way it used to be in about a month. I was very disgusted after reading the ingredients that a "Prestige" brand would use rubbing alcohol (went by another nam...

It is a light weight Lotion-Toner product. I really like that it is really gentle on my skin and doesn't smell funky. Also you can't beat the price for big bottle! I am definetly going to try other products from Same line!

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend

I bought this looking for a cheaper alternative to Pixi's Glow Tonic toner without realizing that this has alcohol in it while Pixi does not. The first few uses it really stung my face but now its minimal, but I do feel as if its drying my face out a bit. Definitely something I would not purchase again.

Verified Buyer

Really hated this. I tried to give it time, too, because I know face products can take a few weeks to be effective. I have oily skin and large pores. This burned and made my skin dry. Even though it made my skin dry, it never seemed to absorb into my skin - like it floated on top, all sticky and greasy. Returned it, bought Clinique's pily skin line again, and saw an immediate difference.

Bottom Line No, I would not recommend to a friend

Caused irritation

Describe Yourself Brand Buyer

I do not have sensitive skin and I rarely break out. I was looking for a toner to improve my skin tone and gave this a shot, but I was very disappointed. After two weeks of use, my skin has a dozen small bumps and is extremely irritated. I follow with moisturizer after every use but it does little good.

Bottom Line No, I would not recommend to a friend

Hi, I have combination, acne prone skin due to hormonal imbalances from endometriosis. Small bumps and cystic acne along my jaw line as well as clogged pores on my chin. I do have light scarring and a red tint due to this. What are the best products for me to use on a budget?

Q
I want to know if glycolic cleansing is better for me than alpha grapefruit, I have a mixed skin with many spots caused by acne and occasionally I have some pimples.
Asked by Valeria
Official Answer By Mario Badescu
Thanks for your question. The Glycolic Grapefruit Cleansing Lotion is best suited for very oily skin with no breakouts. Our Alpha Grapefruit Cleansing Lotion would make a great toner for your concerns. Was this answer helpful to you
Q
What's the difference between this and just the Glycolic toner?
Asked by Leighanna
Official Answer By Mario Badescu
Thanks for your question. These products are formulated with different skin types in mind. Our Glycolic Grapefruit Cleansing Lotion is best suited for very oily skin with uneven texture. Our Glycolic Acid Toner can be used on combination, dry mature skin to help brighten. We do not suggest either toner if you have acne prone skin or are using prescribed treatments.

Q
Can this be used with the glycolic gel?
Asked by Beauty Buff
Official Answer By Mario Badescu
The Glycolic Grapefruit Cleansing Lotion would make a great option for very oily skin that does not experience breakouts. It can be used with the Glycolic Gel which we would suggest 1-2 times per week at night.Was this answer helpful to you
Q
Is this the strongest product you have to help reduce the appearance of acne scarring? I have combination skin and no current acne breakouts, but a lot of dark marks and scarring from previous breakouts which I would like to fade as quickly as possible.
Asked by Jo

Thanks for your question. The Glycolic Grapefruit Cleansing Lotion is recommended for very oily skin. For combination skin to help brighten and reduce discoloration our Glycolic Acid Toner can be used. Was this answer helpful to you
