Alpha Skin Care Essential Renewal Lotion, 10% Glycolic AHA, 4 Oz | Anti-aging lotion exfoliates with Alpha Hydroxy Acid to smooth skin and reduce the appearance of lines & wrinkles.

I've used this, off and on, for 20+ years. It only takes a little, and it does a lot. Excellent exfoliant. Especially for the price--which is more now than it used to be, but what isn't? Just be aware that it increases sun-sensitivity. Use sunscreen. If treating acne, use it first, followed by OTC or prescription medication. The AHA removes the dead skin blocking pores, and allows the medication better access, better penetration, with better, faster results.

I have been using this product as a moisterizer for more than 30 years. I love it (it's in my 'Subscribe & Save' items). I'm in my mid-60s and of course I have wrinkles now. But I believe using this exfoliating lotion has greatly reduced what those wrinkles could have been. My skin feels healthy and soft and doesn't look tired and leathery. I remember the first few times I used it, it tingled and made my face red. So I used it only at night and while my face was still damp from washing. My skin soon adjusted. Now I regularly use it on my face, and sometimes on my arms and legs. Note: be careful in the sun! If you're going to be outside all day, maybe use this just at night especially if you're new to it. With all that said, I highly recommend this Alpha Skin Care Essential Renewal Lotion. I pray they never stop making it!

PEOPLE WITH SENSITIVE/ACNE PRONE SKIN - this transformed my skin!! seriously, i'm not paid or given anything to write this, i hardly ever write reviews but i would recommend this to anyone. i went overseas and my skin had a weird reaction to the change of climate/food/water, i started breaking out really bad and even after i came home i thought the dark acne marks would never go away - even as they faded over time i thought the pink discoloration would never go away bc my skin is so pale, but after 3 months of using it, my dark spots are COMPLETELY gone, and i almost never get acne anymore, if i do get hormonal acne it'll pop up for about a day and i'll wake up with it gone the next day. i was nervous to use a lotion and almost opted for the gel, but i'm glad i didn't, because i like the bonus hydration and the lotion doesn't break me out at all or leave me feeling oily or gross. i have normal/combination skin though, but i don't think this would be bad for oily skin either, if anything i feel like my moisture levels are more balanced and my skin is less oily after using it. a few things: - for the first few weeks, it stings when you put it on. it was intense for me and i thought it was a reaction because when i washed it off my skin was pink. my face adjusted after 2 weeks (it was less intense by week 2) and i never feel it anymore and my skin doesn't turn pink. - i saw results in the first 2 weeks but it got bad first (purging, like bumps that were under my skin surfaced and then cleared) and then started looking really good, be patient with it! - start out every other night, then do it daily, then twice a day (if you insist) i use it once a day, usually at night because it can leave a slight white residue (which goes away) your skin will adjust fast, you won't see DRAMATIC results until about a month if you have discoloration (takes awhile for your skin to regenerate as the exfoliate works) - i would recommend investing in a good sunscreen if you start using aha. i use cerave SA cleanser (love this cleanser!! $8 at target) to wash my face 1-2 times a day, and i always wash before putting this on. i'm pretty busy so i don't have much else besides cleanser/aha lotion in my routine. at the time my face was clearing up i was pretty broke so i only used those two products, really - i've used bha 8% gels previously and they didn't work for my acne, this did for some reason. i seriously don't have a single zit on my face as i'm typing. i don't even wear foundation!

I started using this product on April 14th, and for the first 2 or 3 weeks my face was burning, patchy, and a mess. I jumped straight into using this twice a day without testing it first because I was extremely desperate to find a cure to my acne and scars. I've been a long time sufferer of acne, but when it wasn't until I was 19 and then 20 that it intensified. It started leaving some pitted scars and hyperpigmentation so even when the acne healed, my skin didn't. I've tried numerous products, but I can happily say this is the greatest yet. Now that I've been using it for almost 4 months, my skin texture is better, my acne has slowed down significantly (this month I've only had about 3-4 vs. my usual 20+ :D And they healed super fast with little hyperpigmentation!), and my scars are fading. (with the extra help of ambi's fade cream for normal skin) My skin care regimen is as follows: Wash with Olay Revitalizing Foaming Face Wash, follow with Alpha Hydrox 10% Lotion (Now Alpha Skin Care in the 4fl. oz. bottle!), then I moisturize with Olay's Complete All Day Complete Moisturizer with SPF 15, then I use Ambi Fade Cream for normal skin on my hyperpigmentation. I do all of these 2 times a day and it's truly changing my skin for the better. I've wasted so much money on products that didn't work and I've finally found what works for me and I'm absolutely thrilled with the results so far. I can't wait for 100% clear skin and I'm fairly certain I'll get there now with this magic in a bottle! :D Don't be fooled by the extreme pricing now though! It's under a different name and new style bottle. :) Search for Alpha Skin Care 10% and you'll find the exact same product in new packaging for way less. :) Still on the expensive side but definitely worth it. :) Remember to be patient! 100/10 stars! (and I paid full price for this product, no discounts, no fake reviews. I'm so happy about this and I'm even happier to write about my results. Take the chance! It's worth it! :D)

I been using healthy skin face lotion with SPF 15 from Neutrogena for over 18 some years (in the big 2.5oz bottle. All the other product from them do not work well. They sure did not do A good thing, taking this product off the market). People think I am in my 40ties but I will be 61 this year. This face creme even got rid of pimples and blackheads. Now Neutrogena taking it off the market left me with no face creme. I still used Sulwhasoo, but can not use it every day, because it will give me black heads too. I only use them maybe twice a week. I was frantically looking for an every morning and night replacement. I tried multiple face creme, and they all gave me black heads and pimples, like I am in puberty. Terrible. Now I found Alpha Skin care and been using it for almost a month, and it is working for me. I am so glad that it did not give me blackheads and pimples like other face creme I tried out. I can feel it tightening my skin, and actually working, slightly tingling, just like I was used to from my skin creme I used for all those years. I believe I finely found an replacement: Alpha Essential Renewal Lotion with 10% Glycolic AHA. I would had given a 5 out of 5 stars, but had to take a star off, because of the terrible bottle. I have Arthritis in my hands and a big problem squeezing the bottle. Terrible design. I wish they would put the creme in a pump bottle or in a jar. PLEASE change the bottle design. I would easily give a 5 out of 5. Highly recommend this creme.

I love this product and have been using it for a number of years. I use it both in the morning and at night...its great and works for me.

Great product. I've used it for many years. Leaves skin glowing with regular use.

I've been using this product for years and love it. However, instead of the jar that it used to come in, it is now in a bottle, and almost impossible to squeeze out. I won't be buying again unless they bring back the jar

I purchased this because I needed some life put back into my dull and blemish prone face. I must admit, I wasn't expecting much but my goodness I am pleasantly surprised so far! Face is smoother, refreshed and brighter. Love this product and will continue to use it!

En mi caso tuve que espaciar el uso de este producto, empezando primero con una vez por semana, luego dos y finalmente tres. Es un excelente exfoliante químico.

Reach the product that time bottel sealed is open i will not trust this product

Love this product, have used it for years but not easy to find..this brand was actually recommended by my Dermatologist.. all their products are wonderful so glad Amazon now carries some, hopefully they will carry more options.

This is my first time trying this cream. At first you will notice your face tingle, but that’s normal. After just several days of use, I noticed that my skin seems a bit tighter, which is good considering I’m in my 40s now and trying to take care of my face as best as I can.
