    Even my highly sensitive skin is responding well to this product!

    by Tabby2 (3 reviews)
    I have scarily sensitive skin and I have been using this for about four months with absolutely no negative side effects. It is helping to lighten my hyperpigemted areas, it makes my skin look smoother and to feel just lovely, it has a light, clean, non-perfumey fragrance, and as long as I don't over-apply it, I never get t...hat sticky feeling their literature warns against. If you are looking for a gentle but highly effective alternative to traditional AHA's, try MaMa Lotion -- even my highly sensitive skin is responding well to this product! December 4, 2007, 7:43 pm

    fades acne scars quickly, but use carefully if you have pigmented skin!

    by SophieDear (8 reviews)
    this product used alone did not affect my mild-moderate acne, but, after a few days, it significantly lightened surface acne scars and improved skin texture. i use a prescription retinoid at night, but i rotate that with MaMa a few nights a week. it stings my sensitive skin for 20 minutes after application, but that sub...sides. NOTA BENE: you may experience some peeling. also, pleaser Read the directions carefully and start slowly, especially if you have pigmented skin! December 2, 2007, 8:38 am

    Love this product!

    I have been using this product for approx. a month and it does exactly what it states. I had some discoloration on my forehead and it completely took it away. I also had a deep line across my forhead and a "1" and they have diminished and I can barely see it. I use this product 3 times a week and would definate...ly recommend it. I have oily prone skin.

    great product

    by pamelab (6 reviews)
    mama lotion is truly a great product, that actually works! It definitely helps prevent breakouts. Until I started using this I had trouble controlling cystic acne (even though I'm in my 30's). Using this in combination with a retinoid, will without question clear up your acne, just alternate them every other night. Mama lo...tion also gives your skin a nice glow.

    Love this product!

    by Tambrini (18 reviews)
    I have been using this product for about two weeks and my skin looks radiant. I am pregnant and have developed the "pregnancy mask", this lotion is doing a great job at evening out my skin tone and giving me a more youthful appearance. This will definitely be a staple in my skincare regime for years to come! Worth... the money! May 20, 2008, 8:47 am

    The absolute BEST

    by DramaticDiva (52 reviews)
    Top 500 Reviewer
    This product is FANTASTIC. I've been using it daily for 1.5 years and have never had peeling or problems, even though my skin can be sensetive. Thanks to MaMa, I have smaller pores, no breakouts, and near perfect even skin tone. It has truly changed my skin dramatically. Absolutely can't live without it!! April 30, 2008, 7:41 am

    It does what it says it will do!

    by murphy03104 (20 reviews)
    Possibly one of the most effective skincare products I've ever used. I've been using it for about a month now (my skin is pretty resilient, so I use it just about nightly) April 23, 2008, 10:00 am

    Finally something that works for me!

    by lilithfaire (3 reviews)
    After trying Green Cream and having problems with dry, itchy skin, I decided to try MaMa Lotion. When I first put it on my skin it stings for a few seconds, but then dries nicely. I use it every other night after cleansing, and have had a noticeable reduction in the number of blemishes that pop up over night. December 19, 2007, 7:33 am

  • Manufacturer's Product Description

  • Creates a uniform complexion with 10% Mandelic acid and 10% Malic acid. MaMa Lotion is formulated with 10% Mandelic and 10% Malic acid to provide a unique 20% AHA formulation. This remarkable anti-aging treatment moisturizes and protects the skin while helping to resurface it with a youthful luster. This lightweight lotion forms a protective layer on the skin that is absorbed within 10-15 minutes, and dries to an ultra-smooth finish that lights up the complexion.MaMa Lotion provides a clearer, more uniform complexion, and can be used to neutralize hyperpigmentation, including age spots, freckles and melasma (pregnancy mask); tighten pores, eliminate blackheads and prevent acne breakouts; erase fine lines and wrinkles; and reduce symptoms of rosacea. Its unique 20% AHA formula is gentler on the skin than many products with lower potency, meaning improved results with less chance of irritation.

  • Directions

  • Apply a thin layer to clean skin every other day for first two weeks, then once per day as tolerated. Flaking is normal for first few weeks. Discontinue temporarily if irritation occurs. Avoid eyelids and lips. For external use only. ALWAYS wear a daily sunscreen when using MaMa lotion.Because of the protective and moisturizing qualities of malic acid, this lotion takes about 10-15 minutes to fully sink into the skin.Please Note: Application of the MaMa Lotion will always be followed by a sharp stinging sensation. There is no reason to be alarmed as long as the stinging dissipates within 30-40 seconds. The initial sting is caused by the acids entering the skin. Only prolonged stinging (more than 5 minutes) and itching signify sensitivity to the product. If needed, application of a light moisturizing cream or lotion beforehand will buffer the penetration and minimize the irritation.Dark Skin Types: When using MaMa Lotion on dark skin it is very important to start slow and gradually increase the usage to obtain the best results. For most individuals who have never used active ingredients on the skin we recommend using MaMa Lotion no more that twice a week for the first few weeks up to one month. Gradually increase usage to every other day
