Effective but not a pleasure to use
I am a big fan of MD Forte Products (love the Cleanser III and Rejuvenation Lotion III) which is why I bought their Hand & Body Lotion. I like that this has high glycolic acid levels but it also has mineral oil (which I hate) and this cream doesn't feel good going on nor does it have a pleasant scent (it doesn't smell bad either).

I will probably try the MD Formulations Pedi Cream next (their Pedi Cream works well on hands as well). My favorite day hand cream is Ahava Mineral Hand Cream (but it doesn't have the acid to de-age the hands :-). I am Korean, 42 yrs old, have combination facial skin but my hands are VERY dry. I use: Natura Bisse, Jurlique, MD Forte, Clarins, DHC.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 3 of 3 people said helpful

(you can also alternate topical vitamin c with a retinoid for good results, or do as I do, and alternate all 3!)This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 3 of 4 people said helpful
