Alpha Hoydroxy 10 percent glycolic aha review

So I keep hearing over and over again that you really need to being using an alpha hydroxy product with your regular moisturizer to get the maximum benefits. I read this recommendation in all the beauty magazines and recently saw this on Dr.Oz as well. The problem is for some people including myself they can be very hard for your skin to tolerate. I usually do well in the beginning and after about a week my skin becomes dried out and itchy so I stop using the product. The point of using these products is basically to rough up your skin so that your moisturizer can penetrate more, if I'm understanding correctly. The problem is if they are so irritating that you are forced to stop using than they are no good to you. I found this Alpha Hydroxy product with 10 percent glycoic aha on amazon and it had awesome reviews so I gave it a shot. I have now been using it daily for about three months and my skin can tolerate it. It took a little getting used to but it isn't as harsh as many I have tried. I like this product and I do feel like it has been beneficial to my skin and I will definitely continue to use it. It was also inexpensive at $10.89, cant beat that. If you have an aha that works real well let me know.
