thanks> Anyhoo, yes it has an AHA, and it is glycolic acid which is about the best, and looks like it is a good product. I don't just base that on what old Paula the cosmetic cop says, but from the ingredients and percentages it looks good. You could go higher on percentages though and have even more freshening.

> Oh and remember, AHAs will deep cleanse and refresh, but don't help remove or prevent wrinkles. Are good to use in conjunction with something nonirritating like Kinerase, or plain moisturizers. But if using in conjunction with something like tretinoin, you'll flake more and chances of irritation are greater.
Ok cool gotta get to a derm now :-)> If that is what's most important to you, or you know it will be a hassle to be super careful in the summer (or during winter outdoor activities) about sunblocks, it would be better.
Yeah I worry about me and sunblock, every year I get I horrible horrible burn, so in a way my peeling skin is doing something similar to these products...you know I bet noone has looked into this yet?? I could be a zillionaire with this idea. and the rays from the sun may even do what lasers o...OMG Im so smart , im a genious...and that is how its spelt lol Fallen has argued with me on this one and ii win!
> As far as "dandruff" alone, even in winter, you could also just put on the tretinoin a couple times a week. And even when using it more often, most people's skin will acclimate after a few weeks and not flake much if at all anymore. Sooner or later it is good to get in the habit of using a retinoid. You could even use the .05% instead of the .1%, but no lower. Yes Kinerase is very good, just not nearly AS effective for cell turnover, but definitely better than just about any other product you might choose in lieu of a retinoid. At your age it really may be plenty for now.
yeah that sounds like a good plan
> Ok now that's cruel, you KNOW you could get me to write 67,000 words about why that is different (thank goodness I saw your 'just kidding' post before I got started)! ;-)haahhaha d*mn I shouldnt have posted my just kidding lol
