"This was too harsh for my skin which is the dry and sensitive type. It burned almost immediately and left red spots that took a couple days to go away. I've used lactic acid in the past without a problem so am unsure why this occurred. Packaging is very nice, and the product itself was a nice consistency. I wish this would have worked for me."
— Karen S. (3/5)

— Raphaela J. (5/5)
