Thanks /r/SkincareAddiction!
Found out about chemical exfoliation via Reddit, specifically the sub SkinCareAddiction, and gosh am I happy I did! A thousand times better than physical exfoliators (scrubs), these pads brighten my skin and take care of dead skin in a gentle and mess free way. They are gentle enough for every day use, and Amazon has a great price, compared to the only Walgreens in my district that sells them. These might be the first and only item I sign up for automatic deliveries of!
First time users may experience a slight purging the first few weeks, but this is completely normal, due to the actives (AHA).
The only thing I am not too crazy about is the scent. It's not bad, it's sort of fruity, and some people seem to like it. I prefer scent-free products, which is why I took a star off. However, they rock, and I highly recommend them to everyone!
KEEP IN MIND- AHA's may increase your skin's sensitivity to the sun, so it is best if you use these in the evening. If you do use in the morning, remember to wear sunscreen- Well, sunscreen is always good, and you should wear it every day, but I digress.
Long story short: These ROCK!
