Alpha Hydrox AHA Enhanced Lotion Reviews

this lotion is amazing! ive used it twice, count it, twice! and my skin tone has improved. i've had blackhead cystic acne since late years of high school, now 22, and nothing was working. i'm not saying that this is a miracle cream, perhaps i'm only seeing an effect because it's the first time my skin is reacting to the lotion but nonetheless, my skin looks so much better. i've used it every other night, no moisturizer. acne wouldn't be such a big problem for me if it weren't for the scarring. let's hope this works, i'm keeping my fingers crossed. i'll keep you guys posted

I think that the trick to using this stuff is to use it sparingly, but every day. Over time it has really improved my skin.

I don't understand. How is this used to combat acne when it says that it is an anti-wrinkle treatment?

I've noticed no burning sensation when using this...and I've also noticed no improvement. I don't understand.

I have used this and similar Alpha Hydroxy products in the past (Like Neutragena's healthy skin face lotion).

It always works great at first and then after about 6 months I get blackheads all over, especially in my T-zone and my skin acts irritated.

I only use it at night, so maybe I need to use it only 3 times a week?

I noticed an immediate improvement in the texture of my skin. I've been putting it all over my face and neck after BP and before moisturizer. The only thing I find that I don't like is that I have to gently wipe excess lotion off even if I use a small amount. I've received multiple compliments on my skin, though! I'm definitely going to continue using it.

Please do not use this allover your skin if you have sensitive/combination skin. I made the mistake of getting some on my neck and on my sensitive dry spots (cheeks) and ended up w/ a nasty red burn. I would only use it to spot treat. I think that is what Dan from acne.org is saying but his description is ambiguous. Be careful, this is an acid and will burn you if you're not careful.

I used this alone, as an overall treatment (as opposed to a spot treatment), and was 100% crystal clear. I gave it a four for Agreeability because it caused a minor burning sensation after the first few applications, but the sensation didn't last long and went away altogether after three or four days of use. The fragrance also takes awhile to get used to. Remember to wear sunscreen.

it would be good to get it over the counter in the UK and Australia instead of over the net. But it's a good product that works tremendously well on emerging lumps and bumps!

I use this as an all-over treatment on my face. It has evened out the texture and color of my skin, diminished old acne marks, and prevented further breakouts. My t-zone is also not as oily as before. I had almost given up hope on my skin when I found this - I'd reccommend it to anyone with non-sensitive skin!!

Great stuff. Helps stop upcoming zits in their tracks and heal them faster. Can turn skin red, so only for use as a spot treatment on the face. Probably fine for the back as an overall treatment.
