are you looking for a lactic acid peel? Here is one site i found:
Lactic Acid Peel / Exfoliator Products
You should be careful with the peels though, they can really damage your skin if you arnt careful! You should start with very low percentages

mandelic acid is a form of AHA that prevents or reduced photosensitivty which may be useful in dark skinned people doing lightening. our skin wants to return pigment that so vigerously especially when we are out in the sun. stuff like like exfoliators and peels,which help with lightening, also increases photosensitvity and can actually cause the skin to to darken very quickly if one doesnt keep up with maintainance.
mama is way too expensive though (especially if you want to use it over your entire body). you can try nucelle products. there is a serum or milk that contain 10% Mandelic acid. it could replace a 10% AHA peel.

I've never used "plain" lactic acid, but my TCA peels have TCA AND a % of lactic acid. I'm liking what I'm seeing after I've peeled. I can't wait to do another one!! Gotta let this "new" skin heal first. I have a dentist appt. on the 18th- if I think my skin is ready I'll use my 15% TCA/Lactic acid peel then. Right now I'm still flaking some from the peel I did on my face and I did a 4 layer peel on my neck last night. OUCH. But I tried 2 layers a week ago and it did NOOOOOOOOTHING.
