Best AHA/Glycolic Product!

Hi, all! What is your favorite, most effective AHA product? I have yet to try the Cane+Austin pads, although those are next on my list. My skin loves being exfoliated, so I'm looking for recommendations with 20% plus. If anyone has experience with the Cane+Austin, please tell me if they're worth it! Here's a list of what I've tried from Sephora, in order of effectiveness: 1. FAB AHA serum 2. Skin Laundry Glycolic serum 3. Drunk Elephant Glycolic serum

Hello @Mayk47,


As a friendly reminder, double check your AHA interested products' pH are between 3 - 4 since that is where it is most effective. pH 4.5 is where the active essentially diminishes.


If you are interested in Asian Beauty products, here are two AHAs that meet your 20% standard.

  • Sidmool Dr. Troub Skin Returning Milk Peel
  • Naruko Dermalane Intensive Brightening Renewal Treatment 20% Mandelic Acid AHA

The Murad AHA/BHA exfoliating cleanser is really good too. Beyond those, I haven't found any I will be going back to for regular use.

Cool. I've tried it, but it didn't necessarily wow me. I...

Cool. I've tried it, but it didn't necessarily wow me. I just got a sample of the PTR glycolic swabs, but those also seemed a little timid. I guess next step is a gentler peel?
