Wow not one comment on the ingredients!!??
I haven't gotten it yet but will try it and then do a write up in the product review section after I give it some time.
I just thought all of those ingredients together was interesting...example mandelic acid and niacin.......seems really good from the clinical results. |

I would like to comment on the ingredients list. However, the list shown does not appear to be a complete listing of the ingredients. Is this product a cream or lotion? It says it is a 2-part system. If so, then where is the water, the emollients, the emulsifiers?? It says it is paraben free, but I don't see any other preservatives listed, and that tells me that this is not the complete ingredients list.
If these are just the "actives", and I think it is, then they could be added to the formula in miniscule (and perhaps less than efficacious) quantities. If you can get the entire ingredients list, please post it so we can review it.
•Glycolic Acid and Lactic Acid: Exfoliate while allowing slower-release and better penetration of other actives
•Salicylic Acid: Exfoliates while combating acne and inflammation
•Gluconolactone: Exfoliates with antioxidant and moisturizing effects
•Phytic Acid, Malic Acid, Tartaric Acid, Citric Acid: Provide antioxidant and free-radical scavenging properties and inhibition of melanin production
•Niacinamide: Antioxidant that reduces hyperpigmention, stimulates new collagen production and reduces acne
•N-acetyl-glucosamine: Prevents and fades photodamage and inhibits melanin production
•Azelaic Acid: Lessens pigmentation, and has anti-acne and anti-inflammatory properties
•Alpha-Arbutin: Prevents new melanin production; natural alternative to hydroquinone
•Retinyl Acetate: Vitamin A derivative that increases collagen and elastin
•Hexylresorcinol: Reduces hyperpigmentation, with antioxidant benefits
•Feverfew Extract: Anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties
•Whitonyl: Inhibits melanin production and reduces pigmentation
•Green Tea Extract: Antioxidant
•Bisabolol: Anti-inflammatory chamomile extract
•Symcalmin: Reduces irritation and boosts efficacy of other actives
•Allantoin: Removes dry skin
One last thing, the product lists for $96.00 yet it doesn't say what the "quantity" of the product is for $96.00. This price seems rather high regardless of the quantity.

Oh my mistake, malic not mandelic acid.
One is a serum, the other a lotion. |
