My friend is using it- she was very satisfied and now she bought peeling too.
This lotion is some sort of an anti-aging agent. it takes some time to skink into skin and it is sort of sticky- she was panicking about that- she thought they gave her product over vaildity period  , but after 10 minutes it totally in the skin, making it soft.
She says it is great for softening elbows. I don't know for knees0 what do ou need for - pigmentation?
You should first check it out on small area on skin if products is ok for you, since with acid components it is quite potent.
BEsides, you shouldnt use it at the begining more than ONCE A WEEK!
About malic and madelic adic- huh, I never loved chemistry, so I cannot help you with that  |

about mandelic and malic acid...
they are both anti-aging agents; they are both is 'alpha hydroxy acid' group; some other acids in this group are more irritating; malic and mandelic acid are among those who are not that agressive. So, people, who are otherwise allergic to AHA ('alpha hydroxy acid') can use mandelic and malic acids products.
Mandelic acid, for example is natural anti- bacteria product; as such is apropriate for those adults who want to use this gel combatting acne.
And malic acid is known as strong antioxidant and natural humectant- as it draws water out of the dermis into epidermis- the final result is hydrated skin throughout the day.
I hope it is more understandable now  |
