Skin Renewing Nightly Exfoliating Treatment — Reddit Reviews
by CeraVe
Updated October 31, 2026
Glycolic and lactic acids smooth texture; over-exfoliation can wreck a compromised barrier.
What the community says
A leave-on glycolic-and-lactic-acid treatment buffered with ceramides, cholesterol, and sodium hyaluronate for gradual texture work. It fits resilient, congested skin better than an already irritated barrier, and layering it with tretinoin or other actives can sting.
What this means for you
What people love
- Dual-acid exfoliation: glycolic plus lactic acid
- Ceramides, cholesterol, and sodium hyaluronate support the barrier
Watch out for
- Too much exfoliation can aggravate a damaged barrier
- Combining it with tretinoin or other actives can trigger irritation
