Next time you want results, look on the back of the bottle and the price tag. I am pleased to see Glycolic Acid the number three ingredient as well as the buffering system in place. Buffers help to control acids or bases in this case acid. Too much acid in a product can cause more damage than good. All in all this product has some good ingredients and is not jammed with fillers making in worth the price. Have you tried Pixi? I would love to hear your #lipsmack - comment below!
