Glycolic Acid Cleanser

Glycolic Acid Cleanser can be helpful for anyone who has oily skin or problems with clogged pores. However, for Glycolic Acid to be effective it must have a low pH, so when you add water it instantly becomes ineffective. To obtain greater benefit from the Glycolic Acid in the cleanser, apply it to a dry face and let it sit for a few moments. When you first try this, be prepared for some "tingling"! I love that though cause you think "at least it is working"!

Now, as far as I know no one has ever done a study to see if Glycolic Acid Facial Cleanser has any special benefits, but I know from my own experience that they work very well. I feel like if I can feel it tingling it must be having some benefit deeper in the pore and it seems to lessen problems with clogged pores and blackheads. If you have problems with these I would definitely recommend a Glycolic Acid Cleanser.

Glycolic Cleansers tend to be thin and do not do a great job of removing makeup. I recommend either using it in the morning only or use it after you have removed your makeup with another product.
