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...

This is one of the best glycolic products for daily to weekly use. I would compare it to Epicuran's 10% glycolic acid toner. If you have very oily skin you might be able to use this daily without it drying your skin out. If you're combination like myself you'd be better off using this every other night or every two nights. It does hydrate since it contains aloe vera. This stuff will give you a great exfoliation if your skin is dull with lots of build up. When you use this with a cotton pad you will see dead skin on the pad. It's not necessarily dirt. If you have acneic and oily skin this will help to clear it up since acneic skin is prone to retention hyperkeratosis which contributes to the acne, and desperately needs the exfoliation. If your skin is dry I would consider using MB's glycolic acid toner which contains no alcohol.

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend

I use this morning and night. I am on my 2nd bottle. My skin has never looked so good. Cleared up my skin and shrunk my pores. I get compliments on how good my skin looks. It is a little drying on the face so maybe use once a day. And it does burn at first but for the results I'm seeing I'll deal with that. Happy customer.

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

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
