Alpha Hydrox AHA Enhanced Lotion - 6 fl oz Review
(1) As a lifelong resident of Florida, at 51 I have skin that’s decorated with many, many sun spots. My arms and legs are especially affected by the spots and I’ve been self-conscious about them for years. I’ve been very happy with the Alpha Hydrox cream for my face so I decided to try the lotion on my arms and legs.
I’ve been using it now for about 6 weeks and the change in my skin’s appearance is fantastic! The spots will never go away, but they are much, much fainter and less noticeable. Overall the skin is smoother and softer and just looks and feels much better.
I use this most evenings, putting it on my arms and legs while I watch TV. I wait anywhere from 10 minutes to an hour and then put on a regular moisturizing lotion. I’ve read warnings that the AHA will cause the skin to be more susceptible to sunburning, so I’ve been careful to use a body lotion with SPF 15 every morning since starting this routine. I have no idea if the AHA really makes sunburning more likely, or if the SPF lotion is making any difference, but my skin looks and feels great so I’m happy.
If you have sensitive skin and haven’t used AHA products before you might want to start out with a 8% solution and work your way up, but I haven’t had any reaction to this lotion. If I have a fresh scratch or boo-boo it might sting a little when I first put it on, but that’s it. I very highly recommend this product for anybody who wants smoother, better-looking skin!

(2) The whole product line works Very Well. No false hype or inflated claims and even The New York Times recently touted the powers of alpha hydroxy acids because they do work well and have a track record to prove it. There simply is no need to spend an excessive amount for good healthy skin care. There are a handful of proven active ingredients in products out there that actually work and this is one of them. Also, Paula Begoun has been a keen truthful watchdog for years about what works and what is pure hype, I surfed into her site and it’s chock full of info & truths.
