PATCH TEST: If you have delicate or sensitive skin or if you are a first time user of AHAs, please do a patch test. See container for instructions. Even after you have patch tested, you may want to start by using products only once each day (or every other day) if your skin is extremely delicate or sensitive.

SUNBURN ALERT: Alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) may increase skin's sensitivity to the sun and particularly the possibility of sunburn. While using products that contain AHAs and for a week afterwards, use sunscreen and limit sun exposure.
