Chemical Peel Confusion

I use the glycolic lotion morning and evening (Alpha Hydrox brand) after I wash my face, then an Obagi moisturizer. I don’t use sunscreen (yes, I know that’s ill advised) but am only “outside” when commuting to and from work.

Personally I would NEVER use any product containing retinol, Retin A, or glycol acid during the day as it makes your skin VERY susceptible to damage. Even with sunscreen, if you’re not extremely careful about applying it, in the long term these products will do more harm than good.

Underneath makeup the only things that should be applied would be moisturizer and/or sunscreen. If you have a good Vitamin C serum, that’s great too. But not a product that has 10% GA in it.
