Reviews For Replenix Acne Solutions Gly/Sal 5-2 Pads
Just ok
It’s not the best at preventing breakouts but works okay.

meh
I have combination skin. Dry cheeks and breakouts on my chin and t-zone. I've used this product 2 days a week for a month, hoping to get good chemical exfoliation with the glycolic acid and some acne treatment with the salicylic acid, didn't make a speck of a difference. I think I'm going to up it to the 10-2.

Not strong enough, will have to buy next level of strength
This product did not do much for my acne. I can feel the tingling when I first apply it but not real results. I have not noticed any skin exfoliation or acne reduction. Maybe a stronger formula will do.

Replenix Acne Solutions Gly/Sal 5-2 Pads
This is actually a really good product especially for the price. My gripe is I can't tolerate the sting after I put it on. I thought I'd pee my pants after each time. I stopped using after the 10 pad. No matter what I do, I just can't tolerate the pain the sting brings.

I use it as a toner makeup/remover
I use it as a toner or after I clean of makeup for extra residue. Pads are very thin but you only need one because each pad is soaked in the solution. I think it helps keep away acne. Definitely start with low Gly/Sa if you have sensitive skin.

Not a miracle product, but...
I have milia cysts along my jaw and chin area. I already use a glycolic lotion in the morning and I added this to my evening routine, just prior to a retinoid gel. I was hoping this would help prevent additional cysts from forming, but that has not happened. However, I have noticed (after a couple of weeks of use) I have much fewer blackheads on my nose. So while it did not accomplish what I was hoping, there was some benefit. I probably will try this product in a higher strength when I finish this jar. After using this my face reddens and there is a slight tingling/bordering on burning sensation, but this does not last long. The smell is pleasant.

Good intro to glycolic treatments
The last time I had a facial, the esthetician suggested these pads for maintenance. Id never used glycolic acid prior to the facial or these pads, and I had a good experience for about 6 months. I initially experienced no redness or even much tingling, and my skin became smoother and more refined. I unexpectedly had a reaction after those first 6 months or so, with severe itching and some redness after a typical pad application, so Ive discontinued usage. However, my sensitive skin or type of reaction aside, these seem like a relatively gentle introduction to glycolic products and they did yield good results for the 6 months I used them.
