Lactic Acid 50% Gel Peel, 30ml (Professional)

I am not really a skin care kind of person and now that I am getting older I need to be. I read many reviews and decided to go with this product. I was very nervous at first and watched the clock down to the second. Trust me you can tell it is working. Burns and itches. This was the first peel I have ever used. My skin was not red and it didn't react negative to the product. It only burns a little when you actually have it on. Remembering my science class, I used a mixture of baking soda and water to rinse it off, then used regular water. Worked great. I think you should do this.

I have had problem skin in the past, but I really feel these peels have helped me. I started with the salicylic peel, but after a while, my skin just got too used to it. So I bought this one and started alternating peels. I also have pretty dry skin and this one defiantly helps keep it moisturized. If you keep up a consistent routine, it really helps to keep the dead skin exfoliated and pores clear. Honestly, after using both peels, I think the only reason I get pimples now is because I still touch my face (BIG no-no!).I've typically found that after a few times, your skin can handle going past their 8 minute time limit. I usually leave it on for around 10 minutes or so with no adverse side effects. Be careful with that though, if you get too bold you could end up with dry, flaking skin.One thing you should be warned of: you can't do these peels as often as a salicylic peel! I learned that the hard way. I use the salicylic peel about once a week, but when I started using this one I quickly learned that you have to give it a little more time, maybe 10-14 days before doing a different peel. My skin got red for a couple days. That could just be me though, A lot of the process is trial and error to find what works best for you.If you have never tried a peel before, I would first recommend using their salicylic acid peel. It's generally tolerated better by the skin and many of the products we use now contain salicylic acid, so your skin will be less sensitive to it.

Ok you NEED this product if you love your skin. This product is unbelievable- your skin softly whispers "thank you" with each swab of the cotton !!! Mine is grateful on molecular level and transformed to beauty! Apply on any wrinkles. Follow with loads of sunscreen if going out or you WILL break out . As far as quality this stuff is top notch, better than $50 peels I've tried and I always get lots of compliments after using this.

Quick History of My Skin:I have had acne for 4 years and have treated it with antibiotics, retinoids, you name it. I am starting Accutane in a few weeks and wanted to get some smoothness and get rid of scarring before starting.Results:To be fair, I've used this once. It is AMAZING. I left it on for about 4 minutes since I have a high tolerance, and yes my skin did get a little pink. Nothing to worry about really. My skin is much more luminous and the pigmentation seems to be really breaking apart and dissolving (this is normal). A little purging seems to be happening, which is normal since it is an exfoliant. My skin feels much more hydrated and smooth. I have used SO MANY products before this, both high end and drugstore. This beats everything out of the water. This once a week will have your skin in tip top shape and allows me to wear less makeup. LOVE this product. I'm glad I bought this instead of glycolic or salylic, much less drying and less abrasive.

My sensitive, yet combination skin loves this peel. Perfect for breakouts and evening out dry spots/skin tone. After over 6 months of use, peel has greatly diminished sun damage on face, neck and chest. I have never left on my skin more than the time it takes to shave my legs. Some applications it really gets tingly, others it does not, with no reason why. Apply with cotton ball or brush.

I have only used this product once so far. I applied the gel peel to my face for 1 minute. It burned very slightly. I rinsed the gel peel off my face with copious amounts of water. I had no redness, only very slight irritation that was not visually noticeable. I suffer from acne and very fine lines. It has been one week since I applied the fist peel and I have had no new acne and my lines on my forehead look reduced. I plan to use this once a week/two weeks, slowly leaving the product on longer each time. I was very nervous about attempting a home peel, but I believe if you start with leaving it on for short amounts of time and work up, you should not have any problems.

The Skin Laboratory Glycolic 50% works better for me. The bottle of this I received doesn't seem work as effectively with my body as the Glycolic 50% does but every bottle strength may vary some, everyone use frequencies vary, time adjustments for everyone vary and everyone body responds different to different stimuli. They sent free small bonus bottle of salicylic 20% too but haven't use that yet. This is review of my experience. On products like this always remember Don't take review as advice.

I have been using this product for over a year and my Skin looks much better am very pleased with the results I see, skin is smoother and pores looks smaller, give it a try. Good luck hope you like it also.
