I love this product, especially since Kavi changed the formulation from a pure liquid to a gel which to me is a little easier to apply. I am 56 and spend a lot of time outside such as motorcycle riding and boating. After the summer season (yes, I use sunscreen!), my skin has an uneven texture and using this glycolic acid has made a great deal of difference by smoothing my skin, reducing fine lines, and minimizing pore size. I am very happy with the results! and also use the Hyaluronic Acid, Complex A, Complex C and GLycolipidic Serum.
Advantages: Smoothes skin texture, reduces fine lines, reduces pore size.
Disadvantages: None if used properly.

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.

This sunscreen is creamy (you do have to rub it in a bit) but not overly greasy. I have oily skin, and I use this sunscreen after washing with Coral Kavi. I don't have to use a moisturizer in the morning any more. It is a little pricey, but it's worth it for the quality. It doesn't clog my pores or irritate my skin like other sunscreen brands. Also, it does last longer than you'd expect. I use it every morning and one bottle lasts me 2-3 months. Highly recommend!
Advantages: quality, does not clog pores

Recommended by my derm for actinic keratosis on my upper arms. Goes on silky with just a little sting. Lesions have begun disappearing after the second week and I couldn't be happier about that.
Advantages: good product at a good price

This is a perfect peel. It went on feeling smooth, the tingling wasn't uncomfortable, and I wiped it off with a wet washcloth. I could see results the very next morning - even tone, brighter skin, and smoother texture. I used a 40% on my face, and bought the sample size in case I needed to go up or down, but I should have gone with my gut and just got the regular size.
Advantages: It works, and the results are stunning for what little time I needed to wait and few dollars I had to spend.

I'm convinced this bar is made of magic. I've been struggling with rosacea and tried countless meds from dermatologists. This little bar made a bigger difference after one single use than dermatologists have made in a year. I usually have deep red patches on my face, and they have lightened significantly after one use of Kavi. My skin is smoother and bumps are gone too.
Advantages: It does everything it says it does.
Disadvantages: Can be a bit drying, but so worth it.

I LOVE this toner! It cleanses amazingly, it leaves my complexion brighter-looking, and it gives my skin a matte "finish" (which is nearly impossible for my overactive oil glands). I won't use any other toner (I have tried major brands, but NONE are nearly as good as this). I hope this never gets discontinued! Thanks Kavi, for making a great product that actually works!
Advantages: Dissolves oil, removes dirt, leaves complexion brighter-looking, smells amazing!
Disadvantages: None
