4.0 out of 5 stars Great, but buy the travel packets instead, May 8, 2006

By	jenny - See all my reviews

Like other reviewers, I thought this product worked very well on my extremely sensitive, dry, and yet acne-prone skin. I had the same problem though of having the pads dry out (as I didn't need/couldn't tolerate using it every day or want to spend $72/month.) When I went to order more, I noticed that for an additional $3 they sell a 30 day supply of individually wrapped "travel packettes" (search for "MD Skincare alpha beta peel".) Besides solving the drying out problem, this also saves the $1.20 lost each time I inadvertently used 2 pads at once (they stick together quite easily...)

3.0 out of 5 stars Okay but expected more, December 29, 2005

By	S. Dubya (San Jose, CA USA) - See all my reviews

I have been using this product for about three months now. At first, it really seemed to be making my skin tone more clear and radiant. But my main problem is oily skin and adult acne (which is worse at 37 than it was at 17). And MD hasn't helped that at all. My skin is still an oil slick, and I still get frequent breakouts. Dealing with my breakouts has started to really tick me off now that I am spending around $100 a month on the MD skincare system, versus the $10.00 or so I used to spend on Neutrogena or the like. But to give MD credit, I have cruddy skin - large pores, oily all over, etc. I like the clean feeling the pads give me but it just doesn't seem worth the cost anymore. So I am moving on. Going to try Nucelle.

5.0 out of 5 stars Skin Like Satin After Day One, March 11, 2007

By	Molly Cat McBride "Saucy Sybarite" (Minneapolis, MN USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

(My skin is acne prone, and once I get a pimple it takes a week or more to clear up on its own. I have an oily forehead and nose and dry cheeks and chin, with all my breakouts occurring on my cheeks.)

I use this product every day. After the very first time of using it, my skin was satiny smooth in texture, save for the few pimples I already had. I pair this with Neutrogena's anti-acne/anti-wrinkle moisturizer that has salicylic acid and Retinol. For spot treatments on my blemishes, I use a Zeno device (seriously, if you have acne, invest in this wonder!) and sometimes a gylcolic acid solution.

The smell of this product is really nice. Step One usually causes my face to burn and tingle a little bit, especially near my eyes, but that sensation is gone once I use Step Two (the neutralizing step). I didn't have much trouble using the product. Sometimes the pad wads up and makes it hard to use in a circular motion. You do have to be careful to make sure you aren't taking out two pads at once, though, as they stick together frequently.

I would suggest buying the travel packettes, like someone else said. Aside from the "won't dry out in the jar" factor, the two jars are smallish, but are kind of bulky for travel and it would be way easier to just have the number of packets you needed for the trip.
