Can you tell me if exfol is really beneficial to dry skinned users? I had heard it to be best for combination or oily skinned types. I am wondering if lactic acid 10% a couple of times a week would be just as beneficial, if not more.
Thanks very much.

Dear KathyC:
Clients with dry skin may find Exfol Cream to be a better option than Exfol Serum. The serum is better for those with oily-to-combination skin, whereas the cream version is supplemented with a number of moisturizing ingredients.
Lactic Acid (10%) a few times a week could be just as beneficial or perhaps even more effective than the 2% hydroxy acid of Exfol Cream/Exfol Serum. It depends on what a person is trying to affect and their skin care goals.
