I'm not a doctor but I can give you advice as a person that has used this product and also, as a person who doesn't have sensitive skin. I always use glycolic based products along with using this product such as cleansers, toners and creams. However, I would discontinue using the acne stop when your doing a peel unless your glycolic peel is lower then 10%. Good luck and enjoy this product. It is the only thing that keeps my mild acne in remission. :)

Good question ! In my opinion, I would stick with one at a time. It also depends on the strength of the glycolic. I have the 80% glycolic and use that about once a week and use the acne stop only on blemishes as a spot treatment. Make sure you wait at least a day after your glycolic to apply the acne stop. Just don't put one chemical on top of another. You will burn your skin and can cause dark spots. Hope this helps:) I have every type of peel and love them. You should try a lactic. Those are amazing!

I don't see why not. I only use the toner and the fruit acid peel, I use a cleanser that my dermatologist prefers.

I would contact the seller and ask this question. I have olive skin and it has been great for me. I mix it up between this and the glycolic peel from this company.

I havent used them together in the same application, and honestly I dont see the need, but you can alternate the days with retinol and vitamin c

Yes, you can. Mostly I use it in a combination with other oils (base and essential) as face and hand cream. Results are very good.

I have used the two together with no negative impact on my skin. But I don't know if it will impact the effectiveness of the product. I waited until the DMAE absorbed (10 min while I brushed and flossed, etc) then put the glycolic on.

I use this first and then add things after. I've never tried your combination, but maybe you could try a tiny spot to see if there's any adverse reaction.

You sure can! That is one fantastic aspect of the thing. Granted, you need to rinse the peel out, but it makes things a lot easier.

This is a once a month thing for me. I don't know how it compares to glycolic. It's very strong but effective. You have to follow directions and I put a moisturizing mask on after. If I leave it on longer than 5 minutes I get dry, but then it balances out after the skin flakes off. I put it on with Q-tip on spots or bumps, and it takes them off. Pretty cool stuff, just be mindful.

Technically, glycolic acid is an alpha-hydroxy acid and salicylic acid is a beta-hydroxy acid. The differences are mainly in the use for peels. You should choose a glycolic peel if you're concerned more with aging/wrinkles and salicylic acid if you're more concerned with acne/unclogging pores. As for hyperpigmentation, you could go either way, but glycolic might be better based on other reviewers.

Yes, I always use the Olay Microderm a day before I have a 30% glycolic peel. When I get the glycolic peel, the esthetician also performs a professional diamond tip microdermabrasion treatment after the peel. The Olay will sluff off dead skin and perfectly prepare it for the glycolic peel. Just remember to ALWAYS use a broad spectrum sunscreen - so important to use as the microderm and glycolic peels, and retinol leave skin more susceptible to sun damage/dark spots. ALSO DO NOT USE ANY RETINOL PRODUCTS BEFORE YOUR GLYCOLIC PEEL. If you use prescription retinol, stop applying it 7 days before the 40% glycolic peel, and don't use it for 2-3 days after. I use Dr. Denese Firmatone 2x a week and Dr. Denese HydroShield 5x a week. Both are over the counter retinol, but the Firmatone has a stronger percentage of retinol. I stop using the Firmatone the week before glycolic, and I stop the HydroShield 3 days before. If you use an over the counter retinol, depending on its strength, it is good to stop applying it several days before strong glycolic peels. Hope this helps.

Yes, I would say that you can. I have extended the product with extra water and olive oil to make it thin enough to use through an applicator.

I really don't know. I don't use it that way, so I have no reference for comparison. I only use it topically. From what I read, you probably could, but whether this particular product is the best for that purpose, I don't know.

Omg too many to list the main ingredient is the alpha hydroxy, glycolic acid. Does sting a little when applied, if skin is sensitive I probably would not use this product

Yes I used glycolic body lotion as an exfoliating cream n also scrubbed my skin everyday and I'm 2-3 shades lighter. Hope I helped

Whatever the concentration, for my combination skin it is not so great that it causes peeling, I can use it everyday without looking like I just had a peel. It has a lot of aloe in it which helps too.

If you are looking for something strong I would recorecommend Dr.Song Glycolic acid peel. Its super strong and you will need to fallow the directions carefully. They have a special on it right now.
