Is it the same as MD forte cleanser II?

I have both MD Forte Facial Lotion II & III. Mine are not cleansers they are lotions with glycolic acid which is used to minimize wrinkles. I looked at both bottles and the ingredients listed are identical. The MD Forte Facial Lotion III supposedly has a higher percentage of glycolic acid but there is no telling if this is true. I think it might be because the III strength feels a little more "tingly" upon application, however that could also be just my imagination! I use the III strength at night & the II strength in the day (with sunscreen over).

Hi Cookie, this product isn't the same as the cleanser. This is an exfoliating moisturizer, though I didn't find it to be very moisturizing. It does do an excellent job at exfoliating for nice, smooth skin.

To me there is not a lot of difference. I changed when my dermatologist stopped carrying the MD forte and had the Vivite Night Renewal Facial Crme.

Im not sure if there is a difference. Is there salicylic acid in the other soap U r referring to?

Yes, the vitamins are the same. They've just made the new smooth one less gritty/rough.

I originally bought this from my dermatologist office. But it's cheaper on Amazon. It is exactly the same product.

I don't think they're the same. I was told to try the Optive by my opthamologist. I can't remember but it might be because it's oil based. I've never used the Allergan Refresh Plus. Good luck!

personally I think it is the same product but renamed. I can't find the bb cream anywhere but I know the bb cream had a really matte finish and spf 30 so I think it's the same

I go to an Esthetician once a month fir facials and she uses this on me. The one I purchased at Amazon is identical, only cheaper. Not cheaper ingredients but cheaper price.

The one I got was obagi, it came sealed exactly the same way as previous ones I have purchased from a physician and is already making a difference, I do also use the foam cleanser as well.

I called Aqua Glycolic and this is what they said: Cleanser-7.7% Glycolic Toner-8.2% Glycolic Face Cream-6.7% Glycolic Shampoo/Shower Gel-9.5% Hand and Body Lotion-9.5% Their percentages are not bad considering that MD Forte has between 12-20% glycolic in their cleansers and they range in price from $25-$30. MD Formulations Facial Cleanser has 12% for $28.80 and DDF Glycolic Exfoliating Wash has 7% for around $30+. Hope this helps! Christine

If I remember correctly, they are the same thing. I believe the chi vitalizer is the newer name for the original one.

Sounds like the same one that I am using. I really do like it. The label says Ageless and it has Aloe and Lavender oil in it.

Not this exact one. But they do have the same product in smaller doses for your dog.

They are not the same product. The pro formula should only be taken under the watch of an ND or MD. I am taking the Macalife under directions of my Naturopathic doctor. It has been amazing for me and I wouldn't do without.

Yes it is the same. After I bought one from Amazon, my Walgreens featured them on sale for much less...so check there first...Enjoy! Sorry for the delay in answering...J. Miller, Ocala, FL

I have not tried that product, so I cannot say which is better. But I have been using this product for many years and it leaves my skin very clean and refreshed.
