5.0 out of 5 stars AMAZING, September 19, 2007

This review is from: Alpha Hydrox 12% Glycolic AHA Souffle-1.6 oz (Misc.)

I have never taken the time to actually review a product but I just had to for this one. Let me tell you a little bit about my skin condition and how this product has affected me.

I'm 26 years old with very fair skin. However, many of my high school/college years were spent in a tanning bed. I've always loved my skin when tan but when it finally sunk in that if I kept tanning I would look like a prune, I luckily stopped for good. However, I always hated the way my skin looked. Very blotchy, often dry, and I still get pimples at 26! I've tried every product under the sun and nothing, at least for me has lived up to its promises!

This product is truly amazing. When I first tried it, it stung my sensitive skin. I used it for about 2 weeks then stopped because I didn't think it was working. If you have acne prone skin, it will make you break out a little at first because all of those pimples will be forced to the surface. So I stopped using it. However, after reading all the good reviews, I decided to give it another shot. It's been about a month of using this product and boy have I seen drastic changes in my skin. My skin is 100 percent softer and smoother. Old acne scars that I had (my skin scars very easily) are lightening up and my complexion is much more even. And, the best part is, I get no more pimples so don't have to use drying products like benzoyl peroxide anymore!! My face is so smoothe throughout the day and it stays that way! It is truly amazing, but the trick is, you HAVE to give it about a month before you will truly see results! Be patient!!

Ok, for those with a similar skin condition to me, just want to let you know my skin care routine using this product.

Morning - wash with cetaphil daily cleanser, apply alpha hydroxy souffle, let dry then apply good moisturizer ( i use eucerine spf30) Make sure you use a noncomedogenic one with a good sunscreen!!

Evening - wash with plexion cleansing clothes (need prescription), apply alpha hydroxy souffle, then a good night cream ( i use neutrogena visibly even night cream and it's worked wonders)

I also take nicomide which is a vitamin my dermatologist prescribed for helping with acne.

Sorry this review is so long, but I just really wanted to offer my advice and let you know what has given me amazing results! If it wasn't for websites like this, I would never have known to purchase all of the products I use! I really hope this helps!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Miracle in a jar, October 1, 2007

This review is from: Alpha Hydrox 12% Glycolic AHA Souffle-1.6 oz (Misc.)

I am 24 years old and was searching for a cream that I can stick with for many years to come. This is the absolute only cream that has ever given me visible results in a short period of time. My skin RARELY breaks out anymore and my skin tone is sooooo even now. This also works wonders on old acne scars. This particular product may tend to dry out your skin so as reccomended on the jar I usually follow it up with a moisturizer. I just use the alpha hydrox spf 15 moisturizer. Another bit of advice if you are looking to try these products ....the alpha hydrox website is so much cheaper. I got a whole set that included the souffle, spf 15 lotion, facial peel, spot lightener, and face wash for around $40 including shipping. Their site also offers a whole sample set of all of the products listed above for $1 a piece. I bought 7 samples to test out before I bought the full size products. Also, you will learn from the website that its normal to break out when you first start using it because your skin is getting used to the aha's. I broke out a tiny bit and then it went away and now its working wonders. Now, if Alpha Hydrox would just invent a cream that cures chronic dark undereye cirlces I would be flawless.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best I have found., October 7, 2007

This review is from: Alpha Hydrox 12% Glycolic AHA Souffle-1.6 oz (Misc.)

I am 60 years old and have tried every high-end product on the market. After one week of using the Souffle my skin glowed, felt extrememly soft, and was noticed by my husband (who doesn't notice anything!) Some other products left my skin greasy or dry and flaking. I have rosacea and it has become less noticable. This is just right and I can't say enough good about it. Nothing is going to change my skin back to my 20's but this does a great job of aging gracefully.
