Pros:

Works well as a night time moisturizer. Not too heavy for my 30+ acne prone skin. Noticed a great improvement of my skin.

Cons:

Would not used for daytime usage since it has AHA.
Has been discontinued at Walgreens but if you find it in your local store, purchase it since no more stock is available.

The NeoStrata Company manufactured this item for Walgreens. This product is the same as NeoStrata's AHA Skin Smoothing Cream-8 which retail for $19.80 unfortunately that product has been discontinued as well. According to NeoStrata's website, NeoStrata Face Cream Plus - AHA 15 ($29) is a very similar product and can be used in place of AHA Skin Smoothing Cream-8. [link removed]

Pros:

Makes skin smoother, helps clear up pimples and red spots. Helps prevent ingrown eyebrow hairs!

Cons:

A little stinky. Jar packaging is not a sanitary way to keep face cream.

I can see results from this stuff within about 4 days of consistent use. I use it nightly after washing with Purpose, but I'll admit I need to be more disciplined. Use sunscreen with it. Amazing product. Sad to hear that it's so hard to find.

Pros:

I'M 40ish. NO ACNE BUT DO HAVE SUN DAMAGE& SENSITIVE SKIN . THIS IS BY FAR THE BEST PRODUCT I HAVE EVER FOUND. NOT TOO DRYING OR GREASY. EXFOLIATES AND BRIGHTENS. I've ALSO TRIED EXPENSIVE DEPT STORE CREAMS BUT NOTHING ELSE I'VE FOUND COMES CLOSE.

Cons:

CAN BE HARD TO FIND.WALGREENS WILL BE OUT OF IT FOR EXTENDED PERIODS OF TIME. THE PACKAGING ISN'T SECURE WHILE ON THE SHELF. THERE'S NO PROTECTION EXCEPT A LOOSE SCREW ON TOP AND SOMETIMES IT LOOKS LIKE ITS BEEN SAMPLED.

I USE THE CREAM ONLY & WHEN I DON'T HAVE IT I CAN TELL A BIG DIFFERENCE IN THE SKIN ON MY FACE. EVERYTHING ELSE I HAVE TRIED EITHER DOESN'T EXFOLIATE WELL, DRIES MY FACE OUT OR IS TOO GREASY AND CAUSES BLEMISHES. THIS PRODUCT IS THE PERFECT BALANCE.

Pros:

works fast

Cons:

a little smell

i love love love this product! :) it reduces the size of your pores and clears up acne very quickly.it works well on blackheads and the hard to get rid of acne (under the surface) wear a sunscreen when you go outside, because it can make your skin sensitive.

Pros:

Cheap and effective. This product works quickly to clear up existing acne and fade postinflammatory hyperpigmentation. Over the last five or six years, I've gone from Stridex to Accutane with no success, but this is finally clearing me up.

Cons:

Stings a little at first, but I personally like the feeling. I don't like the fact that it comes in a jar as opposed to a bottle, because you have to continually stick your fingers in it. It could smell a little better too.

It works, but be patient.

Pros:

My skin feels dry without it

Cons:

No longer available at Walgreen's. The cosmetics gal told me it was very popular, so why'd they remove it from the shelves?

The product, especially the cream in the jar, tends to go bad after awhile and have a rancid smell. I switched to the lotion in the bottle and have fewer problems. [link removed] carries something similar called Alpha Hydrox. Guess I'll be buying it there now since I don't be without it. I get a lot of compliments on my skin and I'm 59 yrs.

Pros:

Smooths skin

Cons:

very oily, will definitely clog pores.

This was great for smoothing skin and creating a more even tone. But no matter what, every time I'd use it at night, I was 100% guaranteed to break out the next morning. I tried it by itself, with moisturizer, with bp, after a shower, after washing my face, morning, night, everything. It has a very oily feel, it's no wonder. Really, I'd break out every single time I used it.
