Dr. Denese SkinScience Exfoliating Pads 100 Count – Glycolic Acid Pads with Vitamin C, Peptides, Sativa Oat, and Aloe for Smooth Radiant Skin – Dermatologist Tested Facial Peels

So I was flipping by QVC one afternoon, and I saw Dr. Denese hocking this product. She must've said "reduces the look of pores" about a billion times. I then listened to testimonial calls where women confirmed this result. Frankly, I am highly skeptical of anything sold on a home shopping channel. But as someone who has been blessed with nearly wrinkle free skin thanks to good genetics, but also cursed with moon-crater sized pores from the same genetics, and given the price, I decided it was worth a try. Of course, I headed over to Amazon because I am inpatient and wanted to get it right away with my prime account. And I figured the return would be easier when this product more than likely failed, especially when products I've paid twice the price for did nothing in the past. I figured best case scenario, I might get a little improvement in my skin texture, which was also touted as a result by the doc. Worst case, I would see no changes at all. So on that Monday when I received my jar, I decided I would take a photo of my pores up close so in a couple of weeks, I could compare to see if there was even the tiniest amount of change to make it worth continuing, hoping for even better results in maybe six months. So after the photo, I eagerly cleansed my face with my beloved Tatcha cleanser and set about "wiping my face," which Dr. Denese also kept repeating was the only miracle step needed to tinier pores. The instructions indicated those with oily skin should try to use the product twice per day if tolerated. As someone with super sensitive skin, and because this product has glycolic acid, I assumed I would probably be running screaming from the bathroom and be as red faced as a hooker in church for the rest of the day, but how wrong I was! While there was a tingling sensation, I had no bad reaction whatsoever. On days one, two, and three, I checked the mirror each morning with great anticipation, and as I expected, I saw no real difference in my pore size. My skin, however, was baby-butt smooth, and I noticed a huge difference in how well my foundation went on. Figuring that was good enough to continue using the product, I awoke on the fourth day absolutely shocked! I could actually SEE a major reduction in pore size without even looking at my original before picture!! I jumped up and down and squealed so loud I scared my cats. To be sure I wasn't hallucinating, I applied primer and foundation, and my pores were almost invisible. I hadn't seen that happen since high school!!! I am now exactly 2 weeks into using the product, and you can see from the photo I uploaded the significant difference. What I hadn't noticed until I took the latest picture was how I also got rid of a calcium spot that had developed, the type of which I usually have to get lasered off by my dermatologist. I also noticed how it looks like my cheek has been lifted. I also have an area of hyperpigmentation that is fading (not pictured). I would have paid 100 times more than what I did to get these kinds of results. This is truly amazing!!! So my fellow moon crater ladies, there is hope! Give these little miracle pads a go.The worst that happens is they don't work and you return them to Amazon. The best is that you see those craters shrink - a problem maybe you thought would never get better. Thank you Dr. Denese for not only creating these little cushions of gold but making them so affordable!

I have just finished reading her book. I have learned a lot from the book. I follow the skin care routine in her book, and my face has never looked better. It's more soft and smooth, and it glows too. My serums go on nice on my face too. This is my first purchase from Dr. Denes, and it won't be the last. I also ordered the eye cream RESTORE EYES. This is also a great product for the eyes. The cream sinks right in. My eyes are nice and moisturized. A little goes a long way. It is a small jar, but you don't use a lot of cream. It will last you a long time. I'm glad that I read her book. She is very knowledgeable, and you don't need to spend a lot of money. But I do recommend her pads for the face for exfoliation.

I love these facial pads. I used to use toner all the time, but this is much better for my needs. After I remove my makeup with makeup remover cloths, I then use one of these fantastic pads and you can see all the excess dirt that comes off. I then follow up with serum and moisturizer and my skin feels great when I go to bed. I swear these are like a mini facial peel. I used to have a raised scar on my face as the result of a dog bite, and I got it microdermabrasioned off several years ago, which was great. But then it started coming back. I would pick at it and then it would bleed. But when I started using these facial pads, that bump/scar kept getting smaller and smaller, until it completely disappeared! I am 54 years old and my skin looks great. I am a lifelong customer!

I usually purchased there off of QVC. But, I can get them here on Amazon at a better price. I've been using them for 5+ yrs. They work VERY WELL. You have to use them on your face for at least 30 seconds. Really work them into your skin. I would have given 5 stars, but when I received these, there was an area already opened. Thankfully, the pads are still SUPER, UBER saturated, or I would have sent back. If you have big pores, congested skin, I HIGHLY recommend. I will always use these.

I have been using the firming pads for about two months that I got from QVC. I am 53 and my skin looks really good for my age(good genes,I guess) but my face was starting to sag.I paid such a high price on QVC and I wanted to get more when I found the great prices here.This really tightens up my face.I let my sister (55 yrs. old) try it and she said she could see and feel the difference in only 2 days.I have tried so many products that promises to help firm up your face,nothing worked.I was sick of reading about products and throwing away so much money for products that did not deliver. I use this on my neck and hands also.My hands look younger.I was really surprised.Thanks again for the great prices! I feel so much better when I look in the mirror.My neck is firm!!

I have tried about everything for my acne and this is the only product that has completely eliminated my acne (I'm in my early thirties). I have been using it for about a year and it continuously has the same effect without the dryness, redness or peeling of my skin. I saw the difference in my skin within 3 days. This product exfoliates my skin on a different level than some retinol products and I don’t see the peeling or irritation through the process. I have used it with my other skin care products and it works great and no irritation or redness. It smells fresh and the pads are saturated enough to cover my face and neck. I don’t have any sagging yet so I can't tell if it has any “lifting” effect but it does clarify the skin. However, I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a non-irritating exfoliation, acne reduction, and improvement in the clarity of their skin.

I've been using Dr. Denese's products for several years and you really can't go wrong with anyone of them. Though I'm nearly 60 years old, many people tell me I look like I'm in my 40's. At first, I thought they were being polite (and very kind) but my physicians (including my dermatologist) say "whatever you're doing keep doing". They tell me my skin is tight with nearly invisible pores and an even skin tone. My female physicians even ask me specifically what products I use because they want to start using them! So, thank you Dr. Denese for creating products with the right percentage of ingredients that enable them to do what you say they do and thank you to Amazon for making the products affordable. Aging isn't easy but having products you can rely on to help you look and feel your best makes it easier. Don't hesitate to try this line. You will see and feel a difference. And, most importantly, you'll feel better about yourself.

I recently purchased these pads as I saw the infomercial for Dr.Denese skin care system. Naturally I thought I would give the products a try and purchase them via Amazon seller. When the Advanced Firmimg Facial Pads arrived I was delighted, but noticed a yellow residue on the lid which made me question if these pads had expired. I try not to be picky and thought I would give them a go. By the third day I noticed a nice glow to my face. I am glad I tried them, but that residue left me feeling like I should order the skin care line directly from Dr.Denese. Today the products from her direct company arrived and I opened the Advanced Firmimg Facial Pads and noticed they look in much better shape then what was shipped to me via Amazon seller. I guess you note to self. I'm excited to try these pads as I suspect they are the real deal. Photo to the left are what was shipped via Amazon seller and the right is straight from Dr.Denes distribution warehouse.

I use this product as suggested, 3 times a week or more, I like 5 times a week. This product exfoliates and firms your skin, just as advertised. I love this product and was so happy to find it on Amazon prime.

These work. My pores were noticeably smaller the next morning. Love it!

Have only used them for a couple of weeks but like them.
