I just discovered your Chanel and tbh I just loooove you....ure energy is everything.ure quite educative and hilarious as well.I’m glad I found your channel
Thank you for the review, this is a product I was considering buying for rough body texure. Right now i’m using the ordinary 7% glycolic so I’ll stick with that
Sorry to hear that. Just make sure you're not using something that's quite irritating to your face and neck and of course start using high SPF sunscreen
Thank you so much for this detailed review. I will try it out but only during the winter season. I love your vibe and energy, you made me smile. Am still in search of a hot weather friendly body toning lotion. If you have any recommendations, please let me know. Thank you.
I haven't tried any other toning lotion for the body but the Nigerian brand Hidirose makes a body serum that helps brighten/lighten the skin. It's also sticky but way less sticky than this Alpha Renewal. Thanks for watching ❤️🙏🏾😊
Skip the toner and just use this products all over hands and body. That's what I do UNLESS you're trying to say this product is too concentrated for your hands in which case you can do as you say 😊 I'm assuming you're referring to the ordinary 7% glycolic acid toner
I just got the lotion tonight and just use it. It really leaves a sticky finish but softens skin like maaad. I hope it really improves my skin. I used it for my face and I hope I don’t get any adverse reactions.
Someone has decided to choose violence 😂😂. Hopefully you won't get any reaction. Make sure to apply your SPF50+ sunscreen well and don't cross 2ce weekly on face
@@mzammy look this lotion will transform your skin in a way you didn’t even know was possible. My skin literally is as smooth as polished glass. It’s Also as tender and soft to touch as a baby’s. It’ll get the job done for sure. However my problem is I’m not consistent with it so it’s blessings begin to fade as I use other regular lotions. I used it on my face with no problems but I do limit my sun exposure when it has been applied. I get it from Amazon. Be consistent with it !!
You are right...That 3 months story is a sstoorryyyy! If the product does go bad after three months what they are suggesting is that one uses this every day and I don't think that is exact the best skincare habit.
I really wonder if white people skin can truly tolerate daily chemical exfoliation 'cause I want to believe they don't have black people in mind when making these recommendations
Since this product is not good to be used under hot sun, will you suggest that I use it at night and use a different product like Nivea during the day?
The effects of glycolic acid are said to last up until 7 days after the last application. You still need to wear sunscreen even if you wear it only at night. Glycolic acid isn't recommended for day time use as actively having it on your skin whilst in the sun can lead to more irritation
@@delomuvis4162 😂😂 it doesn't bleach the skin. It mainly brightens it....as long as you wear SPF well. The intensity of brightness varies from person to person
@@UdegbunamChuks yh yh it sounds funny,😀😀 Thanks so much. I appreciate your patience. I will get this product. Am new to all of these though. I will reach out once in a while in case I get confused.
Hmmm I think there are two brands with this Alpha name oh. This particular one is still very much alive and selling. See www.neotericcosmetics.com/skin-care/alpha-skin-care/cleansers-toners/
It works for any skin type as long as you're not sensitive to glycolic acid. Make sure you know how to avoid the sun and use proper sunscreen before buying this product
I honestly don't have one. Whatever touches my face and body eventually spreads across my hands. Like less than a month ago I started using my left over tretinoin on my hands so that it doesn't go to waste
Honestly I have no idea as I've never had body acne. I know some people who swear by benzoyl peroxide body washes after which they apply any good hydrating moisturizer of their choice
The safety limit for over-the-counter exfoliants is 1-3 times a week. After that, you risk damaging your skin barrier and worsening hyperpigmentation. It doesn't lighten the skin. It brightens it by lifting off old dead hyperpigmented skin cells
I have been thinking of making a switch from Medix 5.5 Vitamin C lotion to one that can brighten my skin. Came to check reviews on black skin for this and your video popped up first. I think it's a great idea to alternate the lotion with another, as you suggested. I had also read something similar on Amazon. I think I will try it out and keep my sunscreen even closer.
I honestly haven't paid attention if it works for fine lines on the hands as when it comes to fine lines and aging, retinoids are king not AHAs in my opinion and experience. Having both in your hand care routine might just be best. Please consult a derm as I'm not one. Thanks for watching 👐 😊
I never get tired of watching your reviews 😂 I currently use the ordinary 7% glycolic toning solution twice a week for my KP and was thinking of switching to this but with your review and the unbearable Lagos heat I might just stick to TO
Glycolic acid can be used anytime of the day. Just make sure you're wearing sunscreen. It's RECOMMENDED to be used at night only by some brands because of caution as some customers are very reluctant to use sunscreen and sunburns are so much likely to happen when glycolic acid is actively on the skin.
My male friend just recommended this to me after I ranted on my WhatsApp status and I relayed how impressed I was to see that he is into skin care. I come on here to watch reviews before making a purchase and yours is the first review on the top of my search. The universe must be trying to tell me something. Let me share this video with him. And oh keep up the good work, you just earned a subscriber. Daalu so, onye nwaanyi gba gi ume n'aha Jesu Kristi

I started using it two days ago and It works but best used at night only
@@Nene-eko Yeah. I only use glycolic acid night time though it can be used day time IF you layer a good spf50 sunscreen over it
Love this review! Straight to the point

It's easy and cheap for us to get here in Nigeria so no need to import from overseas 😊
Thank you for the review, this is a product I was considering buying for rough body texure. Right now i’m using the ordinary 7% glycolic so I’ll stick with that
Glad it was helpful! If you don't have sensitive skin and you don't mind the stickiness, this isn't a bad choice at all.
Do you use the ordinary glycolic acid all over ur body?
Can I use it o my at night with no sunscreen?
No matter what time of the day you use it, you still need to wear a good sunscreen for at least 7 days after the last application
Love please review amlactin body lotion

Hi, I need your advice. My skin is getting darker, mainly my face and neck. I don’t know what to do again!😭

You're welcome
Good day … what if you apply it just at nice do you still need sunscreen during the day on your body
Yes, as long as you're using acids on your body, you always need to cover your exposed body parts in sunscreen or you will get burnt.
Where can i get it
You can try teeka4
Can I use my glycolic toner on my hands and apply this cream all over my body there after?
Skip the toner and just use this products all over hands and body. That's what I do UNLESS you're trying to say this product is too concentrated for your hands in which case you can do as you say 😊
I'm assuming you're referring to the ordinary 7% glycolic acid toner
Do you guys use body sunscreen on the parts that show or neck to toe? 😩
God forbid. 😂😂😂 I only use sunscreen on all sun exposed parts. On a good day I don't apply cream to my body unless the weather is really cold and dry
@@UdegbunamChuks 😂😂😂
Thank you so much for the review...please how can i get this product?? I'm in Dubai...
You could try Amazon or any big beauty store over there
Gud morning dear, congratulation my big brother,am chioma udegbunam.

@@UdegbunamChuks am dyyyiinnnggggg
Thank you, very much, I'm a subscriber and I love the way you explain things, but can someone get the lotion in Onitsha
Hello,, can I use this at night instead like only at night.
I don't understand. What do you mean exactly?
Thank God I watched this I almost bought this online
You're welcome 😊

@@UdegbunamChuks thanks so much.
@@UdegbunamChuks one more thing, hope it's not a bleaching product.
Exfoliating can make the skin bright. Is it very intense with this product?
@@delomuvis4162 😂😂 it doesn't bleach the skin. It mainly brightens it....as long as you wear SPF well. The intensity of brightness varies from person to person
@@UdegbunamChuks yh yh it sounds funny,😀😀
Thanks so much. I appreciate your patience.
I will get this product. Am new to all of these though.
I will reach out once in a while in case I get confused.
Thank you for this great review. I’ve been thinking about trying this brand
You're welcome 😊
Is it really worth it ?? Or is it because influencers are paid to talk to ???
@@francinedupond totally worth it ❤️❤️ but pricey in my location at the moment due to the exchange rate
I think the brand is about to shut down. Their cleanser and moisturizer has been out of stock for a long long time. No website, No restock
Hmmm I think there are two brands with this Alpha name oh. This particular one is still very much alive and selling. See www.neotericcosmetics.com/skin-care/alpha-skin-care/cleansers-toners/
@@UdegbunamChuks I have searched and searched. Thank you for the link 🧚♀️🧚♀️
You're welcome 😊
please is it best for dark skin?
It works for any skin type as long as you're not sensitive to glycolic acid. Make sure you know how to avoid the sun and use proper sunscreen before buying this product
Do I also need the body wash ? For its efficacy.
The cream is potent enough. The body wash in my opinion is for people that find the cream to be too potent.
How can I purchase this pls?I think this will be good for a dry skin
You could try Nigerian skincare vendors on IG like Teeka4
@@UdegbunamChuks thanx bro
@@hauwaabundu5731 you're welcome
What is your hand care routine
I honestly don't have one. Whatever touches my face and body eventually spreads across my hands. Like less than a month ago I started using my left over tretinoin on my hands so that it doesn't go to waste
@@UdegbunamChuks wow thank you so much it's a great idea
@@Android-ds9ie you're welcome 😊
Missed seeing in RUclips universe ❤
I said let me try and start showing face again small 😁😁❤️
If you don't like. Bring it
😂 Something that's almost finished. E remain like 3 uses. That's why I quickly did this video
I have stretch marks can I use it
Yes you can but if the stretch marks are fresh, 3 times weekly usage might be too much for you. Note: it won't cure the stretch marks
When you say might be too much,do u mean the stretch marks can get worse.
Yeah. I mean over exfoliation might make the stretch marks worse
Please what moisturer would you recommend for body pimples
Honestly I have no idea as I've never had body acne. I know some people who swear by benzoyl peroxide body washes after which they apply any good hydrating moisturizer of their choice
Wait I have one question to ask about this cream, you said you use it only three times a week is it harsh for the skin? And does it lighten?
The safety limit for over-the-counter exfoliants is 1-3 times a week. After that, you risk damaging your skin barrier and worsening hyperpigmentation.
It doesn't lighten the skin. It brightens it by lifting off old dead hyperpigmented skin cells
@@UdegbunamChuks ohhh okay I get it now thank you for the reply 👍🏼 you just got a new subscriber tho

As long as the medix is working for you, alternating it with this glycolic acid lotion ought to boost your results remarkably 😊
@@UdegbunamChuks Thanks for your response!

Does it work for fine lines on hands

You're not supposed to use it day time🤦 only at night time

This cream is better than Amlactin I swear 🔥🔥🔥
Lol. I think it's because glycolic acid works faster than lactic acid
You are not suppose to use body cream on your face
