dragonite 0 Share Posted December 18, 2007 I don't have much acne but I do have acne scars and hyperpigmentation around my lips. I have very sensitive skin and Dan's moisturizer isn't enough for me + my skin reacts to jojoba oil.I recently got the Neutrogena Facial Lotion AHA with 15SPF but it gets me a little shiny.Any other moisturizers with AHA any of you guys recommend? (Trying to fade the hyperpigmentation using AHA...)I've read many people using "Cetaphil"? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JennaBabe 0 Share Posted December 18, 2007 Alpha Hydrox makes an AHA lotion. I haven't used it, but I've heard good things about it. I use their oil-free gel and love it. I believe cetaphil is only a moisturizer, and contains no AHA.For moisturizer i use Cerave lotion, which leaves my skin soft, and not shiny or greasy at all. It has a texture different than other lotions- almost like a combination of a gel and lotion. This doesn't contain AHA though- but it's good if you just want a regular moisturizer.

Addie 0 Share Posted December 23, 2007 Lac-Hydrin Five? It contains lactic acid, not glycolic, though. Although, I heard lactic acid can actually be better for pigmentation problems.I haven't used glycolic acid all that much, but with the consistent use of LH5, I hardly get post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation anymore, and when I do, the marks only last a couple days. It took awhile, but it also faded old red marks. They weren't perceptibly fading on their own, so I'm guessing the LH5 quickened their demise. So, I can vouch for it fading red marks, but I don't have any actual melanin issues arising from acne, so I don't have any personal experience there (in case this is what you're talking about).As long as I don't use too much, it dries matte. If I mix it with aloe vera gel, I can use more, and it will still dry matte. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

wellknell 0 Share Posted February 24, 2008 The Alpha Hydrox Oil-Free mentioned earlier has no SPF and a glycolic acid content of 10% at a pH of 4. I've never used it and can't comment on whether or not it's lighter than your current Neutrogena, but it does fit your criteria. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

padresfan 0 Share Posted May 14, 2008 CeraVe Moisturizing Lotion is really good. If you want a lotion that helps with exfoliation, Eucerin Everday Protection with SPF 30 has lactic acid that helps with flakiness. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
