Glytone Facial Cream #2

Professional strength glycolic acid products are serious skin care when it comes to creating younger looking skin. Strong glycolic acid products help reverse wrinkles by giving the outer skin a finer texture and building new collagen. For skin lightening, I always recommend glycolic acid when people ask me for a skin bleaching cream for melasma, or want to know how to remove age spots on face skin.

I recommend using Glytone Facial Cream #2 at bedtime. You can gradually increase to twice a day use as your skin adjusts to this strong glycolic acid face cream. Eventually you can move to Glytone Facial Cream #3 if your skin can tolerate this maximal level of home glycolic acid skin care therapy.

Glytone Facial Cream #2 is part of my Anti Aging Antioxidant Facial Skin Care Kit with Glycolic Acid for Dry Skin and my Glycolic Acid Facial Anti Aging Kit for Dry Skin.

Please note: use of products with glycolic acid can irritate the skin. If irritation develops discontinue use and consult a physician.

Tips For Success: Glytone Facial Cream #2

• Always start with the lowest concentration products and work up.
• When low concentration products are irritating, dilute them in half with a non glycolic acid product and gradually work towards full strength.
• Mix equal portions of the glycolic acid body lotion and a similar non-glycolic acid product in your palm before applying them to the skin. (For example the Glytone Facial Cream #2 and another plain body lotion like Cetaphil Moisturizing Cream)
• In a week or so, add less of the non glycolic acid product as you mix the two products in your palm. Slowly continue this process until you can tolerate the full strength glycolic acid product.
• If your skin becomes irritated, take a break from your glycolic acid treatment for a few days, or until the skin returns to normal, before resuming therapy.

• Avoid or use less glycolic acid in areas of your skin that are more sensitive. This means diluting the glycolic product as above or avoiding glycolic acid on the area all together. Examples of sensitive skin areas include the décolletage area of the chest and the skin folds of the groin or under the breasts.
• Do not get glycolic acid on the lips. OF COURSE, DO NOT EAT GLYCOLIC ACID SKIN CARE PRODUCTS.
• The eyelid folds are sensitive. Of course, DO NOT GET GLYCOLIC ACID IN YOUR EYES. This means do not apply it so close to the eyes that it melts in to the eyes as the product warms to skin temperature.
• If your skin continues to sting when you apply your glycolic acid lotion or cream after washing with the buf puf, then apply your cream or lotion at night and wash with the Glytone Gel Wash and Buf Puf in the morning and apply a bland moisturizer after.
• If your skin develops irritation, an injury or a rash, stop your glycolic acid therapy until the skin has healed plus at least 2 weeks. Glycolic acid will further irritate irritated skin, preventing healing. This includes skin irritated from wind or sun, irritating skin medicines such as acne medicines or tretenoin (Retin A and Renova) or procedures such as electrolysis, etc.
• Irritated skin can develop permanent darkening in response to sunlight. Do not expose irritated skin to the sun until the skin has returned to normal.
