description

Good Genes deeply exfoliates the dull surface of the skin for instant glow and radiance. As dull, dead surface cells are removed, clarity and smoothness are restored. Good Genes visibly brightens the appearance of dark spots and discolorations and instantly plumps the look of fine lines and wrinkles in 3 minutes. This multi-tasking, targeted lactic acid treatment rapidly exfoliates and boosts naturally youthful radiance, while visibly reducing the look of lines, wrinkles, and dark spots. High potency, purified grade lactic acid exfoliates dull, pore-clogging dead skin cells, to instantly clarify and reveal smoother, clearer skin. Together with skin brightening licorice, this super-concentrated treatment visually reduces the look of dark spots and discoloration caused by exposure to the sun, for naturally brighter, even-toned skin.

When it comes to Alpha Hydroxy Acids my skin prefers Lactic over Glycolic any day, as it's gentler, and this formula containing Lactic plus Licorice and a host of botanicals is good stuff! I try...

I don’t really understand the fuss. First, there was a packaging failure and this very pricey serum treated my other products in my bag and not my actual face. So for the price, this is...

Not only does this serum contain pore clogging ingredients, it also contains lemongrass oil which is a known skin irritant. What exactly is the point of this serum? To burn and irritate the skin...

I finished up a sample of good genes and had to get the full size. The results overnight are undeniable. My skin looks vibrant and smooth in the morning. I use it 3x a week with no moisturizer on...

Expensive - but saved my first trimester pregnancy skin that was going absolutely nuts (acne, sensitivity, you name it). No smell that I notice which I like. I use it every other night now that my...

I know this is expensive, but it is a HG product for me. I use it 2-3 times a week at night, alternating with Retin-A. It helps clear the dead skin cells from the Retin-A turnover and keeps my skin...

This isn't a miracle worker, but this is a pretty good substitute. I'm nearly 50 and I've got dull skin and wrinkles, and this treatment softens up my skin and makes it look like I've got some...

At 27, there isn't much in the way of aging or fine lines that I have to combat, but I do have dark spots and texture from acne that I can do away with. Heard great things about Good Genes and...

I have always wanted to try SR's products. Thanks to Boxy Charm I finally received this and the CEO vitamin C cream. I'm not fond of Lactic acid on its own. I thought it was because of the brand or...
