I have been using DDF glycolic cream (12.5% lotion and 15% cream that eds used to carry) and lotions on my hands and arms for about a year now. They did a very good job.
Recently (about 2 months ago I started using Candy's body butter over the glycolic creams and esp on my hand I have no freckles now and the skin is soft in the morning. For me who spends time every day at the beach in the summer (ususally gives me lots of freckles) this is a great result. I think the heavy Shea butter softens and helps the glycolic penetrate. Anyway this is a reasonably priced combo that is very effective. |

I'm going to have to try that - less freckles would be great. Thanks! |

Use a sun factor hand cream and shea butter at night. Try and buy a soft handwash as some strip your hands. |

I love Candy's hand moistorizer but will try the shea body butter at night too. My job has me washing my hands a lot. |

The day time hand cream I use has spf15 and retinol. I like Candy's Shea butter cream over that in the morning too because it seems to keep my hands protected longer. I also have her hand cream at work and use it during the day especially after I've washed my hands.
My hands were older looking before I started using the glycolic creams (every evening). The skin crinkles less now. |

I've never heard of Candy's. Where do you buy it? Do you think it helped with the freckling? |

I'm sure it is the glycolic that fades the spots but Candy's body butter on top seems to make it work better (probably by occlusion make it penetrate better). ALso my hands are much softer in the morning now. I've always liked Shea butter but Candy's formulation is the nicest I've used and there are so many fragrences and the price is reasonable. |
