Didn’t work for me

This made me extremely oily and didn’t fade dark spots at all. I’m an AA female with hyperpigmentation/combo/oily/acne prone skin. Made me Oiler than I already am. Used for over a year with the regimen and no changes.

Have some faith

I use this product to fade marks. I have tried this product multiple times and always stopped using it because it seemed to make me breakout but last time I stuck with it and I can honestly this is magic. A few months ago I'd be devastated if I broke out because I knew it would take a year for it to disappeart. Now that I am using this product the marks will fade 10x faster. I LOVE it!

 

To whoever is considering stopping, don't. You'll thank yourself how well it works after the purging period is over (about 2-3 weeks)

Its just ok

So i recently got recommended by my friend to use acne.org regiment. I have been using for a month and more. I have seen some changes. I am OK with the effectiveness. It leaves my face soft and takes away the acne. There is no direction on how to use the AHA product on the container. When i bought the AHA they sent me the direction on how to use the cleanser, treatment and moisturizer but I already have that handout and don't need it. I should have appreciated the AHA handout more. I have been using the AHA twice daily and no face peel for some days now. Not sure if I should still keep using it or if I am using it wrongly.

Great product minus the expiration date

I was so glad to get this product based off a YouTube review and I'm glad I did. It makes my face soft and moisturized and also does great before makeup primer. I hope to see some dark spots go away eventually. The only thing I'm bummed about is the expiration date for 6 months after I purchased it...good thing I used it right away.

looking for help
I have been using and loving the three core products for about two years. Just like everyone else, I want something to clear the dark spots on my face. About a month ago, I began using the AHA and unfortunately it seems like all my progress I have made has gone to waste. I have breakouts almost everyday and my skin is dryer than ever before. I make sure to use sunblock every morning and understand there is suppose to be backlash period, but I'm wondering when I should see results. Also, anyone know of any other products to clear up dark spots?

I don't know much about your detailed usage. But I do have some solid experience with this product. This product is on the higher-ish spectrum of AHA concentration, so some caution should be used. For example, when starting out, maybe once a week is best for application. Also, consider adding in some Allatoin powder, and definitely an amino acid like Arginine. That will slow down the absorption and make it a bit more gentle. I've been in the same situation and I found that overall, less frequency and less amount of it is so much better. Feel free to track me down and pm me if you have any more questions. Good luck!

Made such a difference
Alright so about a year ago I had severe acne around my jawline and chin area. It got so bad that I went on accutane for 6 months to clear it, although right before I went on it I ordered this product. I never ended up using it since using it with Accutane would completely destroy my skin. Long story short I've been off accutane for the last 6 months and my skin was doing fine, I had no breakouts for the whole of those 6 months. Only the occasional pimple here and there. Then about two weeks ago I suddenly started breaking out around my chin, now having been free of acne for so long having this happen to me was really demotivating and stressful. I then remembered that I still had this tube of glycolic acid I bought, at first I was super super sceptical of it. I was concerned that it might make my skin worse and then I might not be able to go back, but in fact the exact opposite happened. I've been using it on my breakout (and all over my face mixed with a moisturiser) for the last week and my breakout has completely stopped. The dark spots are fading quickly and my skin overall is just looking healthier. Hopefully it continues to improve (Also I really urge those of you stuggling with acne to cut down on your dairy intake, I realised that as soon as I drink a lot of milk or have a lot of dairy products my skin starts to breakout. Try replacing your milk with almond or coconut milk)

Just tried on my back. Very very good results!
I started this treatment on 12 July on face and back. Firstly, I had a little break out on my face at the second day so I decided try it just on my back for the moment. I worked perfect! My back was always with acne but in 2 weeks it was cleared. Just some marks but it is smooth and that with 5 weeks. I will try on my face and after at least 6-8 weeks i'll post the results. Thanks!

Wish I could give negative stars
I started using this product because I had a few dark spots from little bumps that I get in my T zone. This made me breakout on my entire face. Places that I never get acne I started to get acne. I thought it was just the product working and my skin getting used to it so I gave it a full month. I wish I had never used this produt. My face is full of dark spots now. I can't go anywhere without makeup anymore I am so depressed. PS. I have used a different brand glycolic acid before and it was amazing to my skin which is why I gave this one a try since it is such a large amount. Worst mistake ever will never buy again

youre most likely purging, which is a natural process of skin healing after introducing an AHA

AHA treatment
I combine this with my benzoyl peroxide when applying to my skin and leave it over night on acne prone skin and it works wonders!! Usually gets rid of all the bacteria causing me to break out and its gentle enough for my skin. Love it.
