NEOSTRATA Glycolic Renewal Smoothing Lotion 10% AHA — Lightweight Oil-Free 6.8 fl oz for Face, Body & Hands

Designed by a dermatologist-founded brand, this concentrated lotion delivers a controlled dose of glycolic acid at an optimized pH to help accelerate the skin’s surface renewal. The fragrance-free, non-greasy formula absorbs quickly, making it suitable for daily use on areas that show texture, uneven tone, and crepey skin. Its lightweight texture layers easily under sunscreen and makeup or can be used alone for body smoothing.

How does this lotion improve skin texture?

The 10% AHA blend works by loosening the bonds between dead skin cells, encouraging more regular shedding and revealing fresher skin beneath. Over time, surface roughness and fine lines appear less noticeable as the skin surface becomes more even and reflective.

• Contains 10% alpha hydroxy acids (glycolic + citric) for chemical exfoliation
• Optimized pH for effective delivery without unnecessary irritation
• Light, fast-absorbing lotion base suited to face, body, and hands

Will this product work for sensitive or combination skin?

Its fragrance-free, oil-free formula reduces sources of irritation and greasiness, but active exfoliation can still sensitize delicate skin. Start with infrequent applications and build tolerance, or apply to less reactive areas first to assess how your skin responds.

• Fragrance-free to minimize irritation risk
• Oil-free finish for combination or oily skin types
• Begin with every-other-day use, increasing as tolerated

How should I incorporate it into my skincare routine?

Use this lotion after cleansing and before sunscreen in the morning, or at night after cleansing if you prefer. When applied in the morning, always follow with a broad-spectrum SPF to protect newly revealed skin from sun sensitivity.

• Apply to clean, dry skin on face, body, or hands
• Layer under moisturizer if additional hydration is needed
• Always use daily sun protection when using AHA products

What results can I expect and how soon?

Visible smoothing and improved skin feel are often apparent within a few weeks, while more significant changes to texture and the appearance of fine lines generally develop with ongoing use. Individual results vary with skin type, frequency of application, and complementary skincare habits.

• Noticeably smoother skin texture with continued use
• Gradual reduction in rough patches and crepey areas
• Enhanced skin radiance as dead surface cells are shed

Who is this for: This lotion suits anyone seeking a potent, yet lightweight chemical exfoliant to improve surface texture on the face, hands, and body—especially those who prefer fragrance-free, non-oily products. It’s a good fit for people comfortable using active ingredients like AHAs and willing to follow sun-protection guidance. Not recommended for users with known AHA allergies or severe active irritation; patch-test first if uncertain.
