Alpha Skin Care Enhanced Renewal Cream, Anti-Aging Formula, 12% Glycolic AHA, Reduces Lines & Wrinkles, Normal to Dry Skin, 2 Oz, Pack of 1

This is the best face cream for keeping your skin smooth, healthier, and younger looking. I have been using for years.

Excellent Alpha Hydroxy cream here. This is a repeat purchase for me. This product has less ingredients compared to most anti aging wrinkle creams on the market. First off, no Parabens and no fragrance or detectable scent to me. I appreciate that as I don't want those artificial chemicals or fragrances on my face. Alot of drugstore creams smell so strong which is off putting to me. But, the main reason I'm a repeat buyer of this one is because it has 12% Hydroxy Acid which is one of the higher concentrations you can get without a doctor's prescription. Because of this higher concentration it gives me better results. The results I get are softened and lessening of new and existing wrinkles, clearer skin with less breakouts, color to my skin, less dullness, and a fresher, smoother appearance to my skin overall. The price is pretty low considering some of these wrinkle potions, as I call them, which can burn a hole in your pocket. And, I've spent alot on all sorts of products for acne and wrinkles. With that being said, this Alpha Skin Care Enhanced Treatment is on the top of my list proven to work for me which is why I'm a repeat buyer. Other creams I've used do work to an extent but this is one that yields some of the best results. Google it and read all the positive reviews on it from across the board. It's a good one! Word of advice to you though, if you've newer to using Alpha Hydroxy Acids you should test a small area first. It can cause a stinging sensation for a minute. You can start with a lower AHA if you feel the 12% is too high, just check the glycolic acid concentration in the ingredients. And, obviously, never use any AHA's on broken skin. I think this cream is wonderful and I highly recommend it if you want to see positive results!

Creamy, hydrating, if you have sensitive skin, you might want to start once or twice a week. Sometimes it can be a little drying for me, but I just use another moisturizer a couple times a week to combat that.

Arrived safely, quickly and in new condition. Safety seal in tact. Yes it has a silver safely seal for those asking. Made in USA. I used this lotion this morning for the first time. It tried down nicely and not oily/greasy. Some ppl will likely want to put a moisturizer onto for hydration. I happen to be super oily during that time of the month and didn't need any additional moisturizer. But next week I probably will layer it. I am removing 1 star because I can not find an expiration date anywhere on the box or tube. Shouldn't/Don't face products have expiration dates both for hygiene reasons and maximum effectiveness? How do I know this bottle isn't 5 years old? Maybe I am missing it, but I just can't find it. There is a lot number 869993

This product was unavailable when I went to reorder May/2023, so I ordered the supposedly stronger 14% serum. Felt like WATER. No tingling like this one, NOTHING. My skin just felt oily the next morning, not hydrated. It was like I used nothing. My skin runs toward oily. WASTE OF MONEY. STICK WITH THIS ONE and I hope it becomes available again soon! __________________________________________ I am turning 70 in January, this pic, taken by a uni student I was mentoring back in NOV 2019 is me just before turning 69. Never had any plastic surgery, unless you want to count the scars on my nose from having basal cell cancer removed and sewn back up by a plastic surgeon. The pic was in natural light. Our genes and habits help. I do facial exercises, gentle exfoliation and use this renewal cream. After it dries, I smooth some hyaluronic acid lotion over it. Helps with moisture and any irritation. FIRST time I purchased and used this was for my neck. Didn't do it right and neck turned red, so tried on crepey skin on my hands and forearms, wow. Crepey skin was diminished a LOT within a week. I had been using a derma roller for moderate scars on one cheek and the 11 lines you get between your eyebrows. Not working quite as well as I would like. Tried this. WOW, BETTER than derma roller by a LOT! BUT HERE'S THE THING.....IT IS STRONG. SO I use a VERY SMALL amount, wait a bit for it to dry and then put hyaluronic cream or lotion over areas I used this. HELPS with any irritation. I can even use a BIT on my neck now. SO PROS: IT FREAKING WORKS! CONS: CAN BE IRRITATING, but I find the hyaluronic cream or lotion I put over it helps a lot. AND REALLY USING LESS IS MORE WITH THIS ALPHA HYDROXY PRODUCT.

I've used this product's body lotion & facial serum in the 12 % & 14% strength. I thought I'd try this in the creamy facial lotion & even at 10%, it works. I still apply a moisturizer after I've let it soak in but sometimes have forgotten which is OK. I tried so many Medi Spa & drugstore moisturizers & all have failed to control my dry skin. This product is odorless & I've never had any issues with any of the Alpha products. I've recommended it to many people. Even if I skip a night or two, still no flaky skin. Since it's an acid based product, there's momentary stinging in some areas or on freshly shaved skin so I try not to use it after shaving or exfoliation. And avoiding any areas where there's broken skin, like a pimple or insect bites. And it seems to last forever as a little goes a long way. I think it's a great value for so many reasons.

Good product, effect is short term.

This is a great cream that helps to shrink pores. I've used it for years and can't find anything better....even Tretinoin doesn't shrink pores like this does in my experience. Truly helps to keep 70+ year-old skin looking its best.
