Final Verdict:
This is pretty great product for skin maintenance if you are not on any strong acne treatments. I have been using it for few months now,there is definite improvement in skin texture,skin lightening and yes helps acne.My Rating:4/5
Disclaimer:
- Do not use Glomed with strong acne treatments like Isotretinoin,Benzoyl Peroxide,Retinoids.
- Since the concentration of glycolic acid is high,start using once a day and gradually make twice a day after few days.
- It is suitable to use as Glomed as stand alone product i.e when you are not using any strong product/treatment.
- You might see dryness,just add a moisturiser.
- Winters you can reduce the usage if it makes your skin dry.
- A patch test is recommended for sensitive skin.
