sorry i haven't tried the radiance line but i do occasionally use the peel off hydroxy mask. For me, the mask doesn't do miracles or anything but it does make my skin look more even toned and less flakey....I think it may have slightly helped with some redmarks as well but only the ones that were light to begin with...
HTH!

Dan, cant you just use the same ingredients that Eucerin Skin Renewal had to make your new moisterizer?
Its not like they can sue you for that since they dont make the moisterizer anymore....right?
or do you just want to make something better?

You would think that it's a little too late to think that seeing how it's close to being out, from what I've heard at least.

When is it a good time to add in the AHA to the regimen? I've been on it for almost two weeks now (and I know its not yet, my skin is just starting to get red and irritated from the bp) but how will I know when i can start using it without getting more irritation?

I'd say wait until you've been using the full amount of BP for at least a week or two before adding it. Also, only use AHA once a day (or even every other day) and don't use too much when you're starting out.

im using AHA twice a day (Lactic 4% in morning and Glycolic 8% at nite)
but i didnt see any problems with it

[houdini521]

this is my third month of the regimen and my skin is kind of dry and fairly red. not red marks but a redish tint. i've heard that aha in the moisturizer such as neutrogena healthy skin can even skin tone and reduce redness as well as moisturize. is this true? and i have sensitive skin, and i used to use stridex and i think it caused me to break out. should i still try AHA?

Hi guys! Cant find the Alpha AHA 10% lotion that Dan recommended cause I live in Australia and buying online is just too costly. I found one AHA lotion but its 15%. Is that okay ? Will it be over irritating and totally dry out the skin ? 10% is better ? 8% just as effective ?

Thanks

[cool as kim deal]

15% is really strong, I would not use that all over your face. I would just put it on small areas of your face, more like a spot-treatment to zap upcoming zits (that's how Dan uses it) than an overall exfoliating treatment. For the overall treatment, you'll want less than 10% AHA, 8% has been good for me. If you can find Neutrogena products, Neutrogena Healthy Skin Face Lotion is a good all-over AHA treatment.

[Joniesan]

Oh thanks. Would 10%BP (have 2 more tubes left) be better for a spot-treatment or 15AHA ??

Hmm, I actually don't know what would be better. I've never had great luck with spot-treating using anything, really, but I also haven't tried spot-treating with AHA, though Dan swears by it. If you have 10% BP left over, though, I don't see any reason not to use it on active acne.

Plz look at this, some info seem to be good!

The biggest problem is that people don’t give the acne cures enough time to actually work, switching from one product to the next on a weekly basis. It can take up to three months for an acne treatment to cure your acne, and you may even notice that your acne appears to be getting worse before it starts to get better. Failure to follow the product directions is another common problem. Using too much of the acne medication can be just as much of a problem as not using it enough, causing your skin to become irritated.

Yep i agree most ant-acne products take several weeks to months before you gain any benifit from it. Most of the time people quit too early.

I think AHA is very important in an acne product. I have had good results from the products I have used that have contained it.

If you use retinoids then AHA's won't be required since retinoids provide the same exfoliating action as AHA's

Since Dan has kind of a hard time making a decent moisturizer.

Wouldnt it be a good idea if Dan created a moisturizer that had all the same exact ingredients from "Eucerin Skin Renewal"?

So do you put on AHA lotion before or after your moisturizer? my moisturizer has spf 15, so i thought that i should still use it right?

I would try to use AHA on its own as a moisturizer. If you put AHA and another lotion on your face at the same time, the AHA tends to liquify it and make it go all runny and weird. I'm not sure if the effectiveness of the AHA is affected or not, though. I had noticed this liquifying effect when I tried to apply moisturizer over areas that I had just spot-treated with AHA, and someone else mentioned that this is a result of the formulations not working well together, so that makes sense. I'd use the AHA lotion as a moisturizer at night, and your SPF 15 moisturizer during the day.
