Avon’s latest addition to their ever-popular skin care line is Rejuvenate Glycolic Facial Treatment.  We’ve all heard about the benefits of glycolic acids; showing promising help for those with acne, reducing the look of wrinkles and hyperpigmentation and helping to retexturize your skin as well.

Glycolic peels done by professionals are done with a high percentage of glycolic acid and can be too harsh for some skin or unattainable for others because of price constrictions.   Now you can get the benefits of glycolic acid at home with this night time facial treatment.

The texture of this is serum-like.   It’s thicker than a oil and not quite as thick as a lotion – somewhere in between.   The top has a button-like element to push to get the exact amount you need for face and neck.  It goes on super smoothly all over and doesn’t leave your face oily or slick as it absorbs very quickly.

When I first started using this, I used it every night.  By the third night my face started to sting when I applied it.  It was just too much too soon.  Cutting back to three nights a week did the trick, no more stinging.  Then after a few weeks I upped it to every other night.   After nearly 4 weeks my skin still stings if I use it every night, but I do have quite sensitive skin so you might not have the same stinging sensation that I did with nightly use. 

Have I noticed any difference in my skin?   Well, the first thing that comes to mind is “clearer”.   I ran into someone I hadn’t seen in a long time and we were discussing the ages of my children.   She was amazed that my youngest was now 20 and wondered if I had kids when I was 10 because she thought my skin looked so amazing that there was no way I could be 47!   I can’t say it’s because of this Avon Rejuvenate Glycolic Facial Treatment why she thought my skin looked so good, but I’m not going to deny that it doesn’t help either!  And besides, who doesn’t love a compliment like that!
