M.D. Forte
MD Forte is unique in that instead of using the same skin care ingredients in the same way that they have been used for many years now, they have taken one of the most prevalent, and effective, ingredients in all of skin science and found ways to improve upon it. Skin care, skin health, and skin science, is, like all sciences, in a constant state of evolution as new techniques are discovered, new ingredients created, and new understanding about how the body works comes to light.

It can help exfoliate and moisturize the skin, making it an incredibly good ingredient for skin care products. However, especially in higher concentrations, glycolic acid can be irritating to the skin. By partially neutralizing the acid, these products are able to use it at a much higher concentration than they would normally be able to without causing irritation to the skin. This allows you to get all of the positives with none of the side effects from glycolic, which have not gone through this neutralization process...Read more
