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...

Describe Yourself Budget Shopper

My skin has always been very oily and I've dealt with breakouts since puberty. Now that I'm 30 I want a product that can help erase signs of past breakouts and I think this is going to work great. I noticed my skin tone looked more even just after a couple uses (Yay!!!) and it had a tightening effect on my pores. I did notice a slight sting in the first application, but it went away pretty quickly, plus I use a moisturizer afterwards. So yes I'd recommend it to a friend as long as they don't have a sensitive skin type.

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend

Describe Yourself Budget Shopper

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 name) as one of their ingredients. That breaks skin barriers down and may kill bacteria but by taking that barrier, it also comes back faster. I returned it after noticing that.

Bottom Line No, I would not recommend to a friend

Describe Yourself Budget Shopper

I have very oily skin with large pores. My skin has developed a rougher texture now that I'm in my 30s and I have closed comedones (tiny whiteheads that don't go away like acne) near my eyes. I've been using this toner for 2 weeks and noticed my skin looks much clearer and it's slowly starting to dissolve the comedones. I experienced a little bit of itching when I first applied it, but that went away quickly. I definitely didn't experience the burning that other reviewers have mentioned.

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend

Describe Yourself Budget Shopper

I bought this product for my oily T-zone. As soon as I applied the product all over my face it started to burn and I immediately broke out in hives all over my face, neck and ears. Unless you have extreme acne or extreme oil all over you face, do not buy this product. It's been almost a week since I've used this product and my hives still haven't subsided and the texture of my skin is still flaky and rough.

Bottom Line No, I would not recommend to a friend

Q
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
Official Answer By Mario Badescu
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
