• Mild dryness, flaking, and redness at first, is normal. This is what we expect, but this kind of reaction doesn't need to occur in order for the product to work.
• Mild sensitivity. If you become "too" sensitive, adjust your usage. Use less product during application or use only once a week until your skin builds up a tolerance. Only you know your skin, so trust what feels right.
• Sun sensitivity. SPF 30 or higher must be used and reapplied when using any of our products as they are active.
• Mild acne purging. If you have hidden acne or congestion below the surface of the skin, our Advanced Lactic Brightening Treatment will start to pull it up and out of the skin. This is actually desirable in order to clear and clean your skin or the product may be too strong for you. In this case, use less product during application or skip a week and treat every two weeks.
• Skin looking worse before it looks better. This is actually a good sign that the product is working to transform the hidden damage below the surface of the skin. Try to be patient and use a quality moisturizer 2 times a day along with plenty of SPF. Remain positive and optimistic.
• Sensitivity can occur if you are sensitive to acids, and stronger ingredients, or if you've applied the products too aggressively and used more than directed.
• Please remember that each person's skin is unique, much like a fingerprint. So are each individual's skin concerns, goals and expectations. We ask that you remain patient. Individual results vary depending on lifestyle, products used in the past, current state of the skin and health, how much hidden damage or congestion is below the skin's surface, skin sensitivity, how consistent you are with your regimen and how you apply the product.

 Cautions: If you have sensitive skin, are new to exfoliation and strong AHA products, this product may not be for you.
