I've been using glycolic for 20 years and first found Alpha Hydrox at Walgreens when I was a single Mom on a limited budget. Years back, Alpha Hydrox went off the shelves, and since I was making more money, I started buying some of the most expensive AHA products on the market, only to be terribly disappointed. So I was only too happy to find that Alpha Hydrox had not gone out of business...maybe a change in ownership or just a rebranding to Alpha Skin Care, but whatever the case, yippy! Because this stuff is formulated with great ingredients and it works!! Thank you Alpha Skin Care!
