    I don't know if you can purchase it here but I was using Glytone products in the US--mainly body wash and lotion. I got them from my dermatologist. If offered through the dermatologist, you may be able to start with a few samples. I had very good results--extremely smooth skin. I used it until I ran out of products. I just maintain it now with exfoliation and make sure I apply some lotion to my body at night to keep things supple and soft.

    After a week or so, my skin felt smoother. After a month, I felt like I didn't use it as frequently as I had. It might have been overkill to use it daily but I was using it mainly on my arms and legs.

    I tried a facial lotion in the line but found after one use that my skin was much too sensitive for it.

    What skin area are you looking to improve? the face or body?
    Do you have any skin issues that you're looking to use this for or is it just to improve uneven texture?

    I use NeoStrata Foaming Glycolic Wash once a week (sometimes twice, but that's rare). And it is amazing. My face always looks so glowing right after I use it. I have acne prone, sensitive skin and had no problems with it so far. Though, I don't use it if I have any aggregated acneic zits. I bought it from McCabe's Pharmacy in Dundrum Town Centre.

    MD Formulations do a fabulous glycolic cleanser. I use it every day and always keeps my skin clear .. I usually buy online, ebay or the like.
