Pros:

I am 45 and have used this line for 7 years. I do not have wrinkles and have a perfectly smooth neck. Love the 12% soufle (sp). Don't know what I would do without it. I use it after every shower, on moist, warm skin. I don't wear makeup.

Cons:

Hard to find. Walmart stopped carrying it. I get it at Walgreens.

I don't know what I would do without it. I am asked constantly by new people, how old I am and stun them everytime. I don't use soap on my face. Just the Alpha Hydrox products after I shower.

Pros:

It's not a cure all, but can make skin smoother and clearer.

Cons:

May take a while to work. Can sting.

When I started using this years ago, because nothing else was working, it did help my skin become smoother, which I was very happy with. However, it did not clear it up entirely. I do have a LOT fewer blackheads and whiteheads,my skin is smoother, and I have been happy with the result. It can work well-- to the individual that asked, presumably it causes renewal of the skin, which is why it can help clear up the skin, and/or keep skin fresh vs. wrinkles. I HIGHLY recommend it, but want to stress it's not a cure-all, it takes some getting used to, and it requires use for more than a couple of days.

Pros:

Helps fade remarks

Cons:

burns a little

Ok this is my update i've been on it for over a 2months now and my red marks are fading little by little. I have now instead of just putting this one by itself put BP then 1 hour later this lotion but be warned this will make your face turn red but once you wash it off in the morning its not that bad. i'd so go for it people but for those with deeper scars i'm not sure if this will really help but its worth the try.
