Great product. It brightens my skin and evens out discoloration. People often comment on the glowing nature of my face.

I had done some research earlier this year on glycolic peels and opted for a less-expensive product from a different company. That product stung like a hornet's nest and left my face red for almost two hours. The next day, my skin was a little blotchy and sensitive, but I could see improvements to overall texture.

Even though I liked the KAVI site better, I figured glycolic acid is glycolic acid, and I wouldn't pay a premium for nicer marketing. But, I did some thinking a few weeks ago and figured a spa treatment wouldn't do to my face what that first glycolic peel did, and for $15, I'd try a sample of the KAVI glycolic peel to see if there was a difference. Well, I am here to tell you the difference is pretty big. The 40% did sting, but it had a ceiling to it (like a pain limiter), and my face wasn't red for longer 10 minutes afterwards, and as I expected, no blotchiness the next day, only smooth, bright skin. The product itself was also creamy like a gel, not watery like the other company's peel. My husband's comparison was moonshine made in a tub vs a single blend scotch in a bottle. They'll both get you drunk, but one does a gentler job of it.

Honestly, for a little more money, I feel far more comfortable putting KAVI products on my face than a no-brand Internet alternative. Just thought I'd share my experience with anyone else who doesn't want to throw their money away if they're not sure of what they're getting.

Advantages: Quality.. not just acid in a bottle, but a complete spa-like experience.

Disadvantages: You have to pay more to get more.

Excellent product. A bit drying if over-used (more than once a day). Stinks a bit like sulfur, but other than that still excellent and highly recommended for controlling oily skin.

Great for use as a nightly mask. Instead of washing off after 15 minutes as directed I just leave the light layer on overnight and have gotten great results. Does not cause overdrying. Also great to apply a dab as a spot treatment for stubborn pimples/cysts.

I use KAVI Salicylic Acid 25 peel weekly to exfoliate the top layer of my facial skin and keep the acne on my chin and jawline in check. Weekly peels have reduced my (moderate) acne by 75%. Staying consistent with this treatment is key.

Advantages: This Salicylic Acid peel is easy to apply-I use a fan brush.

Disadvantages: This peel has no disadvantages-the initial sting upon application is to be expected and you do get used to it!

Coral Kavi soap is working great on my oily/acne-prone skin. I've recommended the product to at least 3 other people. I plan to purchase the acne skin-care kit soon.

This is a surprisingly gentle cleanser that brightens and exfoliates without overdrying. Love it

Advantages: Brightening, gentle, doesn't burn

Disadvantages: A little pricey but lasts a long time

This is the only cleanser that leaves me feeling clean without drying me out. I've searched the world over for a wash that doesn't trigger my allergies but can still clean my skin, pores included.

Advantages: Cleans without drying or triggering allergies; includes glycolic acid for anti-aging.

Disadvantages: None that I can think of.
