Guest guest Posted June 29, 2000 Report Share Posted June 29, 2000 >What's glycolic acid? My sister has very dry skin and I want to make a >lotion for her. Maybe this would be the ticket?? Glycolic acid is an alpha hydroxy acid (AHA). It's a valuable cosmetic ingredient, but also one you would want to do lots of research on before using. Warmly, Sherri Oshun Spirit Arts Ltd.

Guest guest Posted September 26, 2001 Report Share Posted September 26, 2001 Clear DayIf you make a cream with this in it could you please contact me as I would like to know just how it is measured in a recipe--% to weight of oils? % to weight of total recipe? Thanks so much if you can help me with this dilemma, I am wanting to use it but need to make absolutly sure I know what I'm doing here. Also does anyone have a distributor for this and other chemicals such as Ceteareth-30, PEG-20, Glyceryl Cocoate, etc., preferably Canadian but not necessarily so. Thanks so much if you can help here. Contact me off line if you like. Cheers, Sandy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 7, 2002 Report Share Posted April 7, 2002 How does one use glycolic acid? Is it used alone or added to creams and lotions? Because of skin cancer, I use RetinA. Is this the same sort of thing? ¸..·´¨¨)) -:¦:- ¸.·´ .·´¨¨)) ((¸¸.·´ ..·´ -:¦:- Sage -:¦:- -:¦:- ((¸¸.·´* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 21, 2004 Report Share Posted July 21, 2004 Does anybody have an in-depth knowledge of the proper dilution rate for glycolic acid? I will not be selling this it is for personal use. It is a 70% glycolic, so I'm pretty sure we would be talking drops.
