OMG omg omg! I just looked in the mirror after washing off my makeup and noticed that the marks/dark spots I've started using concealer to cover up are FADING. I've been plagued with dark spots in some form (hyperpigmentation) since I started getting acne in 5th grade. I've used hydroquinone based products to treat them, but none have yielded results this dramatic this fast (about a week and a half).

I recently applied some of my old hydroquinone cream to my skin and instead of lightening my spots, it made them DARKER--almost black--which unfortunately necessitated the use of concealer. As I would prefer to stick to the basics (mascara and eyebrow pencil), wearing concealer has been a hassle for me. I'm pleased to tell you I won't need to wear it much anymore if I keep using this product. Do yourself a favor and grab some. You've got nothing to lose but your blemishes!!

About me:
-24
-African american with medium to dark skin
-Sensitive combination skin and this product does NOT irritate it (tingles ever so slightly, but nothing major)

I was very excited to try this product but after using it for about a week, I got a couple of huge blemishes. Prior to buying this product I used Dr. Wexler products, which I now went back to using. I didn't see the results that I was hoping for like clear and even looking skin. I was hoping to get the same results that I got from Dr. Wexler products with something less expensive, but I will never try that again. I ended up throwing this product away. I also did not like the tingling effect it had when you first put it on, which was somewhat painful. I am now using Dr. Wexler products again, and my skin is clearing up quickly from the damage that this product caused.

            Recently started using this per high recommendations and research. I am very pleased with the results over the past 3 weeks. I have rosacea and have not had a problem with it since starting the AHA products. Face cream, souffle and cleanser. All the same brand as this.

              Comments about Alpha Hydrox AHA Enhanced Anti-Wrinkle Creme, 2 oz:

              I use this product every morning after I wash my face, and also on my hands, and I have used it for about 10 years. It does an excellent job of minimizing wrinkles and evening out my skin tone, and I have only about three age spots on my hands, even though I am most definitely middle-aged.

              Also, its price is extremely reasonable. The 10 percent concentration is enough to show results, but not so much that it is harsh to your skin. That said, I do not have sensitive skin and I am not allergic, so people who do and who are should probably test it a little first before they use it.

              Following the instructions on the jar, immediately after I put it on, I use a moisturizer and then a sunscreen (I use SPF 50). The fruit acids in the product can make your skin sensitive to the sun so that you burn easily, so I always make sure to use sunscreen to protect my skin.

                Comments about Alpha Hydrox AHA Enhanced Anti-Wrinkle Creme, 2 oz:

                Usually, I use the 8% Exfoliating Cream and couldn't find it on the website, so I chose the 10% cream. I have been using this as my daytime wrinkle eliminator for about two weeks. I haven't noticed any remarkable difference from the exfoliating cream. However, the additional 2% hasn't caused any purging, or stinging.

                I love the AHA products and use almost the entire line except for a couple of items. These products cleared my acne and rosacea in under two months and I have been acne/rosacea free for almost two years. This has never happened before with any OTC products. I stocked up on AHA products and I have enough to last until the next great sale...

                  This product worked perfectly for what I wanted. I used it at night only; my daytime moisturizer has a sunscreen. My skin was tired looking, drab, and lifeless. I wanted a whole new surface to my face! This product gave it to me. A little tingly at first, I didn't experience any redness or long-term irritation. Just a fresh new me, just in time for Spring!

                  Comments about Alpha Hydrox AHA Enhanced Anti-Wrinkle Creme, 2 oz:

                  For years, I've used a well-formulated BHA product, which is usually considered the best choice for my type of very sensitive, oily/combination, 60-year-old acne-prone skin. I thought I was doing well, but still had clogged pores and occasional cystic breakouts. I tried Alpha Hydrox on a whim about a month ago, and I am really surprised at the visible improvement. After a few initial breakouts around mouth and chin, pores are clear, and cystic bumps and dry on top/oily underneath areas are gone. I first tried the Souffle, but the Enhanced Cream works even better. People always assume I'm at least 15 years younger, thanks to years of BHA exfoliation and faithful sunscreen use, but I'm getting even more compliments since changing to Alpha Hydrox. I'm staying with my new routine!

                    I have tried every skin care product-drug and department store-and have never used anything that's made a visible difference besides this product. I've been using this product for 2 weeks now. During the first week of use, my skin broke out and then started to get dry. It still peels a little when I put on foundation. That said, my pores have shrunk visibly. My blemishes have all but disappeared-the new ones and the ones there from before. My skin tone has evened out, and the fine lines around my eyes have started to disappear. I could not be more impressed. I do not want to be without this product ever again! I am planning to stock up-can't go back to the way things were. Looking 5+ yrs younger in just 2 weeks!!
