Nuva Botanicals 20% Glycolic Acid Face Pads with Vitamin C - 50 Pads

I love this product. Great quality and price. Effective. Great ingredients and no skin sensitivity. I have bought several times. I add cotton pads to it to extend use and I don't like super wet pads. Quick n easy to use. Sometimes I rinse off sometimes I don't.

This is my second time buying these pads! They have a bit of a smell of something similar to rubbing alcohol, which is expected. The pads are very durable and thick, with a nice texture for a gentle abrasion. You simple rub the pad all over your face, wait the allotted time, then rinse with water. I use the pads a few minutes before I shower, so I can just rinse my face in the shower like normal. These pads make my skin tighten up within a few minutes after I use them, and I get a very light peeling of the top layer of my skin about a day later. My skin is soooo smooth and even-textured ever since I started using these. Recommend!

Have used this for years. It really does make a difference on the skin. It took a few months when I started using it before I started seeing the red spots to fade but it has really tightened my skin and lightened spots. Use it daily. Great value for the money.

These pads are helping my skin clear up.Reminder to wash after application.

I am used to getting peels, but always at my dermatologist’s office, and it has gotten to a point where these in-office treatments are cost prohibitive, for only about six months worth of results. I started with another product that had only 10 percent glycolic acid, and I was able to use that every night. So I decided I was ready for something stronger. I had to be very careful about using this product. I used it only once a week for a month. It gave me a deeper stinging sensation than the previous 10 percent product. Now I’m up to using it every fifth day, so if I use it on Monday, my next application is Friday, and so on. I always make sure to use the timer on my phone so I don’t go beyond the two minute usage limit. After I rinse it off (as per instructions), I dry my face and put on my serums. Most times, my partly oily skin is just fine with the serums, but if my face feels dry after all this, I top with moisturizer. I got this product for my hyperpigmentation brought about by aging and hormonal imbalances after menopause. I can’t say that this product alone helped lighten my dark spots and patches because I use other actives strategically planned over the course of a week. However, I can say that this product delivers the exfoliation it promises without making my skin dry and flaky. I found it beneficial to start slow and follow the instructions on the package. I am appreciative of the reasonable price, when everything else like it costs twice more. I will buy again.

Got this product with some higher hopes than I should have. I have used it for about a month and saw no change. Got the ones with higher % Glycolic acid and saw no change either. The pads are paper thin and a pain to get out and they are so soaked you have to wring them out or risk dripping in your eyes or all over etc. they leave a odd feeling film on your face as well. There isn't really a scent, but I don't think of that as a negative.

I like the way my face feels after using this product. I use it a couple times a week and my skin feels great!

I usually don't write reviews. But I had high hopes from these pads and they are total let down. First, these pads are like dry cotton pads. There is hardly any moisture. second, these pads don't seem to have 20% Glycolic acid. First day I used for 2 minutes as described but nothing happened not even the slightest of tingling or flaking. So second day I bumped the time to 5-6 minutes and still nothing. So third day I used these on my hands overnight still nothing happened to my hands and face. These are easy to use and do have little stickiness but that is not a deal breaker for me but performance is. It's a waste of money. Very disappointing. Don't recommend it.

I found these to be too strong for my dry, but breakout prone skin.
