Skin immediately starts to repair. When used daily, skin will take on rosy glow. Benefits can be seen in less than two weeks. Mild irritation and light flaking is normal. If excessive irritation develops, skip a few days and restart every other day.

  • Use a Vivant toner or Daily Repair Pad before application to enhance absorption into skin. 

  • Do not use on the face and neck unless acclimated to Exfol-A™. 

  • Your skin will pass through a conditioning phase with any of the vitamin A skin conditioners. If excessive drying, redness or peeling occurs during the first two or three weeks, skip treatment for a day or two, then restart slowly. However, if skin shows no reaction, increase the rejuvenation program to twice daily, or graduate to a stronger Vitamin A skin conditioner. You should experience some peeling every week. This will tell you that your program is working. 

  • Normal or Combination Skin 
Start using a Vitamin A Propionate skin conditioner every other night for the first week to ten days, then gradually increase your Vitamin A Propionate skin conditioning program to twice daily. 

    • Sensitive or Dry (Arid) Winter Skin Conditions 
    Individuals with dry skin are will likely experience the greatest skin smoothing benefits from regular use of a Vitamin A Propionate skin conditioning lotion, but should start the skin conditioning program very gradually. Begin with one application of Exfol-A Forté™ once every third night through the second week. Increase to every other night for a further week, and nightly thereafter. Eventually, you may be able to use the program up to twice daily. 

      • Oily Skin or Hot Tropical Conditions 
      You may be able to start right off with using the Vitamin A Propionate skin conditioning lotion once a day. Once skin acclimates, you may begin applying Exfol-A Forté™ twice daily. Because your natural oil flow creates a film that slows the effects of the Vitamin A, the program can be stepped up more quickly.

        Best on the market

        This product is the best I have used. My skin is clear and healthy. Do not need to wear makeup as there is nothing to conceal or correct. Great product that works.

        Awesome product for acne

        Exfol-A Forte is one of my "beauty-musts." It really does "flush out impacted pores." I've used it daily for 2 years now, after working up from Exfol-A Level II, and used to use it twice a day before trying the mandelic acid. It keeps my acne and blackheads to a minimum; not even benzoyl peroxide or antibiotics works for me long-term. I've also noticed that my skin has aged much better than my peers: My skin is luminous, blemish free and wrinkle free. I have not noticed any reduction in hyperpigmentation with this product...I'd recommend the mandelic acid for that.
