SkinMedica AHA/BHA Exfoliating Cleanser
This is a very good product. It is recommended for almost all skin types. Per other reviews and product specifications for age and skin type, I purchased this as my daily cleanser. My skin is mature. This product has a gentle feel for an exfoliator but is too drying for daily use on my mature skin. I do like the feel of clean, smooth skin I get from AHA/BHA. But I now only use it 2 to 3 times a week and will unfortunately need to make another purchase for a more gentle daily cleanser. This is the only reason I give it 4 stars instead of 5.

Silky smooth
Get rid of the dead skin without irritation. Gentle to use after Retin A causes peeling.

Good exfoliator
Had a facial recently and was recommended to buy this. I feel this is a good chemical exfoliator and has left my face glowing. I use it about 3 times a week, and seems to keep the hormonal acne to a minimum.

Good Product for Exfoliating the Face!
This is a very good product for exfoliating the face. It is a light exfoliator that is not too harsh on the skin. My only recommendation would be not to use it every day and night. My skin needed a more moisturizing cleanser in conjunction with this product. This product lasts a while, so I feel it is worth the money!

Great product.
Face wash is not harsh like some other exfoliating brands I’ve tried, so I have been able to use it every morning. Another great product from SkinMedica at a great price from LovelySkin.com!

Gentle exfoliator
Great cleanser and very gentle at exfoliating. I use once a day, and it doesn't dry my old lady skin up.

Exfoliating granules could be bigger
I bought this thinking it was a scrub. The granules are few and are very, very fine. You almost don’t feel them. I don’t recommend as an exfoliator. However, it is great as a foaming face wash!

Good cleanser
I feel like the formula has changed since I last ordered. I still like the product but liked the old formula better. It was more exfoliating.

Good Cleanser
I like this as a cleanser when my skin has little bumps or a breakout because it cleans my skin well but it isn't really a scrub. It is a little gritty but doesn't really do anything. I prefer my scrubs to have a little more texture. But it is a good product just not one of my favorites.

I like this new product
This is a new exfoliating cleanser for me. It is much creamier and less grainy than the previous one I have been using. It leaves my face feeling soft and clean. I am very pleased with the results so far.

Love this cleanser--repeat customer
I really like this cleanser. Besides the chemical exfoliants (AHA/BHA), the cleanser has a fine graininess which makes it a mild physical exfoliant as well. It foams slightly and rinses off easily without residue. It leaves my skin feeling soft and looking bright. A little goes a long way my first tube lasted me over a year. I am now on my second and still loving it!

SkinMedica AHA/BHA Exfoliating Cleanser
I really like this product. It can be used every day without drying it is easily rinsed off and it leaves my face feeling clean. After some toner and some moisturizer, my skin is ready to apply make-up. I don't actually see a difference in my skin, but I like the texture of it and it's gentle. And I like the possibility that it is getting rid of some dead surface skin. I would definitely recommend it. I am in the 65-70 age range.

Will buy again
I'm 36 with normal to oily skin. I also have some mild hyperpigmentation on my cheeks and above one eyebrow. I purchased this product when it was 20% off and I am glad that I gave it a try. I use it twice daily and really feel that it has improved the texture of my skin, my hyperpigmentation, and shockingly some of the breakouts I sometimes endure along my jawline and cheeks. The results are subtle but I can tell so that is all that matters. I started using it at the same time as I did the SkinMedica hydrating toner and HA5 lotion so perhaps some of the effects are from the collective use of all 3 products. A Skin Care Rep once told me that there is something to be said about using products that are all from one line because they all work synergistically together after this little experiment of excluding all other products in my drawer and only using SkinMedica I'm starting to believe she was right! I gave this product 4 stars vs 5 because you cannot use it to remove eye makeup and because the price is a little high. However, if you can wait for it to come on sale and purchase it then, I definitely think it is worth a shot.

Great Exfoliant
I have used other Skin Medica products for a while but just started using the Exfoliating Cleanser. I found it to be effective and gentle at the same time! No red abrasive skin. This will be added to my ongoing skin care regime!

A dab will do!
Just started using this product, my skin had a freak out day by switching but cleared right up. Directions are right, a dab and water, it foams up and rinses nicely.

Great product
It's very effective yet gentle on the skin. I like the fine jojoba beads that are safe on the skin versus more abrasive granules you'll find in other face scrubs. I've seen good results after a few uses. My skin looks a bit brighter and my acne isn't as much as it was weeks ago. It does make my skin feel somewhat tight afterwards (due to salicylic and glycolic acids and having slight sensitive skin) but with moisturizer it's not a bad feeling. I use twice weekly for smooth skin.

SkinMedica AHA/BHA Exfoliating Cleanser
I have used SkinMedica AHA/BHA Exfoliating Cleanser off and on for a few years. I suffer from melasma and my skin treatments promote rapid cell turnover (i.e., peeling). When my skin goes though a sloughing phase, the Exfoliating Cleanser does a nice job of gently encouraging the the process. I have exceedingly dry skin, and another benefit of this cleanser is that it does not strip moisture from skin as standard soap can. I give it 4 stars rather than 5 because it is not among my "must have" arsenal of skin care products. I'll occasionally purchase it if it is on sale, but I do not consider it a necessity.
