Lactic works from the outside in to plump the skin, improve moisture retention, and add a natural glow.
Working on the surface, it is especially beneficial in treating skin tone, texture, and pigmentation.
Lactic's unique ability to draw moisture toward the surface of the skin makes it
ideal for individuals whose skin dries out easily.
This treatment also
effectively combats acne, leaving a wonderfully smooth and clear complexion. With continued use as directed the skin will look more youthful and vibrant.
The Lactic 30ml and 100ml are ideal for full facial applications.
For specific areas, or spot treatments, the Lactic 50 Roll-on would be best.

Owner Reviews, Ratings, Comments and Criticism
As a licensed esthetician, I am cringing reading the reviews of some of the users of this product.
"Applying and leaving on" "Applying 3 times a week" "Using as a daily exfoliator"
If your not going to seek the advice of your dermatologist or esthetician, please buy a book on Chemical Peels to understand how they work.
Applying more that once every 10 days will thin out your skin and will cause problems down the line. The whole point of "Peeling" is to clear away the old dead skin cells and allow new ones to surface. It takes your skin (depending on age) 20-42 days for brand-new skin cells to work their way up to the surface of the epidermis, if your constantly stripping your damaging your new skin cells. Patience is needed with peels and generally a series of 4-6 are needed depending on your expectations. Always apply spf of 30 or more afterward and before starting with this 50% lactic prime your skin a week before by using 2-5% glycolic wash. And PLEASE seek the advice of your friendly neighborhood dermatologist and/or esthetician before even attempting to peel.
Good luck to you all.
**Oh and regardless of what the manufacturer claims it does not change the "size" of your pores, they may appear smaller because the chemical de-congests the follicle but if you naturally have big pores; this will not shrink them.
