Alpha Skin Care Renewal Serum, 14% Glycolic AHA, Anti-Aging Formula, Reduces Lines & Wrinkles, Alpha Hydroxy Acid Exfoliates & Evens Skin Tones, Rejuvenates & Hydrates, 2 Oz

I have been using this product for about 15 years. The results are amazing. It definitely reduces lines in my face and makes my skin more firm, but it also evens out my skin tone. I’ve used it on dark spots on my hands and arms and it’s helped tremendously. I highly recommended!

I've been using alph-hydrox (brand name changed to Alpha a few yrs ago) products for years, off and on. It's basically the least expensive line but you'd not know it. I've tried much more expensive products, although not alpha hydroxy acids, because there was no need to try other brands. This brand seems high quality and their products WORK. I'd gotten away from the brand for a few years and came back to it about 3 yrs ago when I started wrinkling up badly (hit menopause so my skin got way drier very quickly, it used to be combination.) I started with the 10% for my face but I tolerated it fine. So I went up to this 14% serum. My skin tingled quite a bit at first, but not unpleasantly. It now tingles just a little bit in some areas. It doesn't get red and irritated. Despite my age, I have very few wrinkles. My skin had literally started aging visibly month by month when I hit menopause but since I've used it daily it's aged very little if at all. My superficial lines are the same or less. I think the wrinkles around my eyes are lighter than 3 yrs ago, even if I smile. It only didn't work on the wrinkles that start in those deep smile lines between your mouth and nose. People think I'm in my early to mid 40s. Some people think I died my hair gray when it's just naturally gray at my age lol. My skin basically looked like it stopped aging in the year I had added only this product to my skin care. I saw a difference within a few weeks. It definitely exfoliates. My skin looks "drier" a few hrs after I used it. But it's not drier because if I rinse my face gently skin w a wet wash cloth the exfoliated (dead skin, TMI) comes off, leaving a fresh, smooth face. Buy this, you won't regret it. And if it makes your face irritated, you can start with a lower percentage product and work your way up, or you can try it every other day. It irritated a friend's skin so she tried a 10% first for a month and then went to this. She too is happy with the result. She's 42 and had acne and it helped with that as well. So it helps both with acne and wrinkles. Great, huh?

While the consistency of the product is very watery, the results from using it are noticeable. I can tell that sun damage (brown spots) are lighter and my complexion is smoother/brighter. Also, my pores appear much smaller. I use this in the evening before I apply my prescription tretinoin and then again in the AM before I apply foundation w sunscreen (SPF 45). This is a serum is a great addition to my skin care regiment.

I love this product. With so many falsehoods in advertising in beauty, this product has always been spot on.

This retinol is excellent! As you may know, retinol pruduced collagen, and collagen prevents wrinkles! I have used it for many years and I am often asked what I use on my face. I am 81 and I do not look it., probably look 69! I am told this my many people. My pharmacist asked me what I used! I also use their moisturizer after the retinol dries. Leaves a nice sheen to my face! I use their Enhanced Wrinkle repair cream at bedtime! These products were developed by women and I met them at a conference they put on! I can't say enough about the products!!!! Highly recommend!

Super product! Saw an immediate difference in my skin — brighter, tighter and less redness

I have been using this product since I was in my mid 30s. Now I am in my early 60s and so glad this product came along when it did. Originally, the only product of its kind was from Murad, but it was and still is a little pricey. I have used other products that were available over the counter when this one was no longer sold in drug stores. No matter what other alpha hydroxy derivatives I have used from other manufacturers, this one has ALWAYS been the best and I eventually return to it. The last derivative I used was a Walgreens knock-off that was reasonably good, but only came as a cream. Recently, Walgreens changed the formula to make it more marketable to a broader user base by buffering it. All they ever needed to do was expand the line with a different strength for sensitive skin, but nooooo . I found it was no longer as effective so I dropped it from my skin care arsenal and once again returned home to this line. I especially like that the Alpha Skin Care Line now has the stronger 14% serum. I have found it to be highly effective and use it morning and night followed with a moisturizer around my eyes. My oily skin demands that I use either the serum or the oil free gel. Does it work? You bet it does, but it's NOT for sensitive skin. My skin is fairly hardy, so I can use this in combination with a Charcoal/Black Sugar scrub to exfoliate every morning before showering and shaving. At night I cleanse with a charcoal infused facial towelette and then use the Alpha Hydroxy Serum followed, as mentioned before, by my eye cream. It's an amazingly simple, effective routine....but again, that's MY routine, YOUR skin may have different needs, but if you want to diminish lines and even out your skin tone, this product just might be the solution for you. Short of a prescription product like Retin-A, it's the best in both effectiveness and value.

If you're looking for blemish free, clear skin (and no black heads) then look no further. It goes where scrubs can't and clears our your skin. 100% rating from me!!
