just putting in my 2 cents. i've recently started using baxter's night cream. it only has a measly 2-3% AHA but i guess that's a good thing considering i'm just starting. you can look for skinceuticals. they have AHA formulations and there's a clinic down at dunbar that sells this stuff. i know 'cause i've been there. try googling anti-aging clinic or something. kinda forgot. and if you're curious, i got my baxter's at momentum grooming at burrard.

I just ordered 2 bottles of eucerin daily renewal from drugstore.com (using the international-orders.com site) so i'll let you guys know how that goes.

Looks like drugstore.com ships it to international-orders.com and then they re-ship it to me. taxes and duty pre-paid.

theres about 12$ of shipping costs added, but oh well.. if these products were on the shelves here they'd probably be like 20+$ bottle cdn.

also ordered 2 bars of that cetaphil anti-bacterial soap.. because all we got here is the non anti-bacterial bars.. (and even then the ingredients are probably different).


im in ontario canada btw.

People, the best AHA Lotion by far is the Alpha Hydrox enhanced lotion.
It costs about 14 dollars in the U.S.
You can use it for the face and body.
Let me tell you what happened with me.
I got the worst body acne last year.
I used Doxycycline and Neutrogena Body Clear Body Scrub to clear my body acne.
The acne went down on my body.
But Holy Moly did I have the worst redmarks when the body acne went down.
The redmarks were the size of your pinkie fingernail.
I tried different soaps and body lotions. Nothing got rid of the redmarks.
Then I tried the Alpha Hydrox enhanced lotion. It has 10% AHA.
Within 2 months, all my redmarks were gone.
It was unbelievable.
One thing I will tell people.
If you use a 10% AHA lotion for the face, it might sting the first few days.
Your face has to get used to it.
On the body, because the skin is much thicker then the face skin.
It felt good on the body the first time I tried the Alpha Hydrox.

if you go to eucerins canadian site that shows canadian products
it is like a completly different company, the products dont seem to relate
at all to the ones on the U.S site.

When I did that it told me that it was going to cost 42 dollars for one bottle of moisturizer with shipping and everything.

No thanks.

WHERE CAN YOU GET THIS STUFF?

After looking at Shopper's/Superstore etc and only finding Neostrata and a few other AHA moisturizers at around $30 I decided to look for Kiss My Face Peaches & Cream. The face/neck moisturizer (118 ml) is the one with 8% AHA. The body moisturizer only has 4% AHA. I found www.well.ca. You can order online and shipping anywhere in Canada is free! My total with HST is $11.85 CDN. I liked that I could pay by debit. Looking forward to trying it without breaking the bank... I'm using it to aid in preventing ingrown hair on the back of my legs. Since it's not going on my face, I don't want to pay a fortune.
