Im in Canada, no Walgreens for me  I read through the link you sent anyways. It's nice to see products that work, that don't cost and arm and a leg. |

I also used the Anew! both Blue and Gold tops! Also my one and only Avon experience too. And I'm not ashamed of it  Loved that stuff 
But the Neostrata/Tristrata patents (as I understand them) were different because they focused on combinations of AHA+ other acids (or variants like PHAs) and using glycolic to deliver other actives more effectively/gently...a good couple of years after the Avon work and launches.
And I will say this - although they mayn't ever fully overcome their "mumsy" image, I do think Avon has done a lot great research in skincare and still does 
ETA: we crossed posts and I still can't say "thank you"...so thanks for the links they are really interesting |

I was an avid user of the Anew for several years, The only reason I stopped was my major move over 1000 miles, I lost my Avon Rep and just never found a new one.
I think that was a major turning point for Avon as far as upping the brand. |
I agree completely. I was in college and borrowed  it from my mother when I was home for vacation. I still could not believe how it could make a difference so fast...and people were talking about this "acid stuff" like how could it possibly come from such a cute and cuddly company as Avon  |

| Alright, I've made up my mind! I'm going to try out Neostrata. I'm thinking that I will start off with once every over day for the first few times. I don't want to over do it. Thanks for the help everyone! I'll let you know how it goes! |
