    12% Glycolic Acid Lotion?
    Hi guys,

    So after reading a lot of threads on this forum I decided to go with the most natural approach I could think of. So I ordered the Diana Stadler Kojic Acid Papaya soap. I have been using that for two weeks now and just read about vitamin C and glycolic acid.

    My question is where can I find a body lotion that is 12% Glycolic Acid? Because I have read that unless its 12% or higher it really won't work with stopping melanin production. I see face creams that are 12% but they are tiny and so expensive. Does anyone know of a particular brand that I can get over the counter and works well?

    Here is my regimin:
    Use Kojic Acid soap--leave on for 5 minutes
    Use Alpa Hydrox 10% face lotion of my body--knees, elbows, stomach etc.
    Use Vaseline Coco butter Intensense Therapy Lotion all over my body
    I also take 500 mgs of Vitamin C at night.

    Is there anything else I can do that would help the process? My face is lighter than my body, so I primarily want to lighten my body.
    So who can help me? :)

    Thanks!

    Thanks nikki1000!
    Is MD forte available in stores or pharmacies, or do I have to order online? And also do u think 20% is OK to use or will it be too harsh?

    I found the 20% fine its not as harsh at is sounds MD forte are a reputable range so you have no worries there

    You put a search into Google you will come up with the various websites that sell it I bought mine online you could always try eBay as well just make sure the seller has good feedback
