great for hair!
I bought this for a new syndet shampoo bar. I will be purchasing more! Its a great product, the bar is a little more sudsy, hair is softer and shinier, and more manageable with natural curls.

Strong and Great Value!
Works great, dissolved the dead skin. I have VERY tough skin and am able to use it straight. This is always advised against. Wonderful product. Great value for the money. Saves me on professional services.

Not fancy but it works.
Years ago I saw big dollar brands selling these peels for over$100, so I decided to see what the ingredients were. I am very fair skinned and burn easily but am also impatient for results. That means I go around with burns on my nose for a few days. If you are not sure about the strength you can go down some in strength or wash it off after 2 minutes and increase the time by 30 seconds each time. My skin is smoother now and it help the wrinkles some

Must dilute for skincare use
I dilute this to 10% with night cream to apply before bedtime. I wouldn't suggest this if you have sensitive skin. It exfoliates the skin causing a gentle peel. Unless you are experienced with chemistry, I would not recommend concocting the potion.

Turn Any Beer Into a Sour
I just got done brewing a wheat beer on Lallemand's WildBrew Philly Sour yeast, which is a novel yeast strain that can produce lactic acid, resulting in a sour beer. It worked out great once before, but this time, I got no lactic acid (most likely, I was fermenting at too low a temperature for good acid production). A little searching led me here. I dumped the contents of this 4oz bottle directly into my 5 gallon keg of wheat beer, sealed it up and pressurized, then gently rolled the keg on the floor to get it mixed in. The final result: Not as nuanced and well-incorporated a sour flavor as I got from my first experience with WildBrew yeast, but every bit as sour. Perfect amount for a batch this size to add a very bright, tart, acidic layer on top of your beer.

Exactly as advertised. I dilute it for a weekly facial exfoliate
Product is exactly as advertised. I bought it to use for a gentle weekly facial chemical exfoliant. Looked up online how to dilute it with water and it has worked great on my skin texture and dryness. Super happy with the price, since a little goes a long way for my mixture. Much cheaper than buying lactic acid facial cleansers/masks

Work great, powerful, be careful.
WORK, I used it pure directly on hands sunspot with a cotton swabs and it work well, 5 minutes and wash, in 6 session (1 every 2 day) sunspot was already very light. Seem to be recommended to dilute at 10%-15% on large skin surface, can be very hard for the skin at current concentration.
