Reviva Labs 10% Glycolic Acid Creme Daily Moisturizer and Mild Exfoliant - Natural Sugar Cane Derived Alpha Hydroxy Acid Face Cream, Acido Glicolico Crema

So I mostly bought this because of blackheads on my chin area, I have a comedone extractor but I would go a little overboard and cause some redness/damage and I wasn't really solving the issue so I started looking into glycolic acid and salicylic acid. First salicylic acid didn't do crap and my first experience with glycolic acid was Mario Badescu 3% glycolic acid which also didn't really help. I'm not experienced with peels so I wanted something in between wimpy glycolic acid and peel your face off glycolic acid. Before this product I did not start with the 5% cream that the company recommends and I hadn't used the 3% glycolic acid in a while so my skin definitely wasnt use to any type of acid, I also have pretty sensitive skin but have had no problems using this cream. I started using the cream only on my chin every other day but was super surprised by the results that I decided to use it on most of my face minus eye area and my nose. You guys this is so amazing! My skin is so soft and vibrant! I used to use a specialty acne cream every night but since I have been using this just every other day my skin has been so clear and even though I still have blackheads they are definitely less and that's only with using it a handful of times! My routine for this is just to wash my face, tone and then put the cream on, I don't top it with a moisturizer because it actually is quite moisturizing on its own and I get a little too oily in my T zone when I use a moisturizer in addition. The cream does sting somewhat but that dissipates quickly! I can see this being a staple in my skincare for the rest of my life and at such a great price too!

I love this cream. It doesn't have any parabens, propylene glycol, bht, or alcohol. This was great for me since I am trying to discontinue the consumption/use of food and skin care products with ingredients that have alleged health risks or that are known carcinogens. In addition, I have extremely sensitive skin and some products cause me to have allergic reactions or breakouts. But that's not the case with this brand of glycolic acid. Please keep in mind that I've used higher concentrations of glycolic acid in the past to remove dark spots from some of those allergic reactions. If you've never used glycolic acid cream or had an acid peel before, I'd recommend starting with a lower concentration and expect initial irritation when you first start using the product. This cream keeps my skin smooth and clear, and it practically eliminates breakouts. In addition, I recently started using 100% pure african black soap to cleanse my skin, which has enhanced my skin's appearance even more. Another bonus is when I ordered this cream from Amazon, I got it $10 cheaper than in-store at Ulta or any online retailer. Update 09/01/2012: I'm still using this cream and still loving it. Also, Desert Essence - 100% Pure Jojoba oil 4 oz liquid is the only moisturizer I use because I can drench my face in this stuff without it causing any acne or allergic reactions. I've found bentonite clay to be helpful too as a face mask or as finishing powder over my makeup to keep the oiliness away. I am continuously finding that the more natural and organic a product is (whether for skin, food, or house hold cleaning), the less likely I am to have an allergic reaction. Plus, I just found out I'm pregnant and I don't have to worry about eliminating products that are unsafe for the fetus. Update 04/20/2013: I was on a hiatus from using this product for about 5 weeks. At around 29 weeks pregnant, my skin became extremely irritated by everything that touched it (I was surprised because I didn't think my skin could get any more sensitized than it was, but I was wrong!). During this time, whenever I applied the Reviva glycolic acid to my face, it would intensely burn as if I'd never used glycolic acid before. I'm sure it was one of the inconveniences of my hormones fluctuating due to the pregnancy. However, once I noticed that things were getting back to normal, I resumed using the product at about 35 weeks pregnant. I'm now 39 weeks pregnant and haven't had any issues and I'm so happy because my skin truly suffered in appearance until I resumed usage. Now I'm feeling confident again and looking forward to meeting my little one face-to-face.

I am 31 years old with extremely acne prone skin and cystic acne. The oils in this product are 100% noncomedogenic and this product does not cause me to break out. I tried this product because I want something natural to help with acne marks and fine lines. I jumped straight to the 10% based on these reviews. The first time I used this I was breaking out terribly and so upset. I woke up in the morning and all of my acne was flat (no longer inflamed) and the redness reduced. I thought it was a miracle. So I kept using it every night (which was too often!) and had bad results until I figured out how to balance my usage. If you use it too often without adjusting to it, your skin will almost get a thin, hard, dry, red layer on top and no surprise, this will cause you to break out (which is why the company recommends starting at the 5% level). If you take a day or two off the red/dryness goes away and you can start over (I never peeled, but did have dry flakey skin from overusage until I found my balance). I found that from the start I could do 2 nights on, 1 night off. Now I am up to using every night and that has been the perfect balance for me. I would recommend starting with every other night if you haven't used the 5% version first. This product dries up pimples and gives your skin a nice glow. It hasn't 100% stopped my acne, but I have had severe acne and it is MUCH improved. I would compare the "miracle" effect to the effect you get from a slight sunburn on acne, it flattens acne and makes your skin look great (people with acne you probably know what I mean), however unlike a sunburn this is not damaging to your skin. As long as I do not overdo the usage and use a good moisturizer, it is great for my skin. I definitely recommend it.

First time I ordered this cream from different seller. It worked so well on my skin so I ordered it second time from seller M.A.Y store. The cream I applied last night and immediately I realised it's different. Not effective at all. Seller gave me fake product. Please avoid wasting money on such sellers who fools buyer.

Great stuff. I've been using the 5% for a while, now just moving on to the 10% I noticed changes within a few days. Since using my face has become, and stays, smooth, properly exfoliated (people with acne often don't slough dead skin evenly, contributing to the problem) and it is definitely minimizing lines and scars :) I highly recommend this cream. It does sting, but you get used to it, and it's not painful, just a little uncomfortable until you grow accustomed, which can take a couple weeks.

Highly recommended!!! I have used three jars over the past ten years since my skin scars easily. This is the only product that works to heal blemishes, and I have tried several products including prescription creams. One jar applied daily will significantly fade blemishes after 8-12 weeks if used consistently. It doesn't irritate my skin or make it flaky. I use a good moisturizer in conjunction.

Dnt go for this product . Its itching and burning .
