Product Description
Level 1) Glycolic/35, Lactic/35, Salicylic/20
Level 2) Glycolac/60, Lactic/50 - Twice as strong as L1
Level 3) Glycolic/50, Lactic/70, BHA+, HQ+ - Twice as strong as L2
Choosing a Peel:
Glycolic: stimulates collagen growth more effectively than any of the other peels. It's small molecule allows it to slip beneath the epidermis to reach the collagen fibers below and results in 15%-25% thickening over 12 weeks. Glycolic acid generally causes little or no visible peeling.
Lactic: works on the surface of the skin to treat tone, texture, and pigmentation. The Lactic acid molecule works to pull moisture into the cells, and exfoliate surface cells which helps to perfect the skin's surface and restore the skin's natural glow.
Glycolac: With a combination of Glycolic (25%) with Lactic (35%), it provides hydration and tone improvements of the Lactic, with the increased collagen stimulation of the glycolic. It is generally well tolerated because the lactic and glycolic work on different levels or the skin.
Salicylic: a great kertolytic which means it helps loosen the bonds between skin cells to promote exfoliating. It is the only hydroxy acid which is oil soluble which allows it to penetrate into clogged pores. It can be used more frequently than the other peels without must risk for irritation.
BHA+: Hands down the best peel for acne and oily skin. You should expect some visible flaking of the skin 2 days after using the peel. This will help with active acne blemishes as well as old acne marks, and a variety of other skin problems.
HQ+: This peel is best for pigmentation and acne scarring. Similar to our BHA+ peel, with added ingredients which to help to fade pigmentation differences and even skin tone. If you suffer from old acne marks, age spots, or melasma, this peel will be the most effective in helping you.

 Gradual but effectve September 28, 2010
danceuntilwedie
I've been using this product for about two weeks now, though not on a regular schedule. The first day I got it, I used it for two consecutive days. I try to use it about every three days depending on the dryness of my skin. When I first used it, it burned very badly and I left it on for a minute. Initially, I saw no changes in the clearness of my skin and it actually made my skin very dry at first, then very oily even when using a good moisturizer. There was quite a bit of peeling on my nose after the first couple uses and I wouldn't recommend wearing makeup after using this unless you want to look cakey and flaky. I typically use it on Fridays and leave it on for the maximum 8 minutes then let my skin recover over the weekend. My skin looks quite a bit clearer with a few minor cystic blemishes here and there. Overall, I would recommend this product. It works better than most other acne products I've tried. Just be patient and persistent. :)
 It's made a difference September 15, 2010
Marilyn Rawls (Northern Maryland)
I am African American with very oil skin and hyperpigmentation left from using Proactive serveral years ago. My scars are primarily on my cheeks & a few on my forehead. After meeting with an esthetician who suggested I spend $980 on Obagi & an additional $500 on chemical peels, I thought I'd try this peel first. I also purchased the Glycolic peel which I've only used a few times and Kiss My Face Pore Shrink which I've tried and love. I no longer have reoccuring breakouts on my cheeks & forehead. My skin tone has improved significantly. Previously I had raised bumps (that hurt when inflamed) on both my cheeks. These bumps would go from inflamed to non-inflamed, but pretty much never healed or went away; they are gone. I apply a baking soda/water mixture to my face to deactivate the acid. I cleanse with African Black Soap & add a few drops of Jojoba Oil to my face while cleansing w/the black soap. Jojoba oil is a great moisturizer that actually penatrates my skin. After researching I learned my skin is oily b/c it is over compensating for dryness. The Jojoba Oil has balanced my nautral sebum (oil) production. In adddition to topical changes, I've completed a 5 day liquid only cleanse, twice in the last year. I've implemented Zinc Supplements & Flaxseed (fresh ground or oil I go back & forth) which is really good for your skin as well. These things have worked wonders for me. I am pleased with the product.
Milder than expected. September 11, 2010
Ruth (Lindenhurst, IL USA)
I am 51 years old, with oily skin, moderate breakouts, mild acne scarring, forehead wrinkles, and slight jawline sagging. I have been using 2% SA facial cleansers and toners for years with minimal improvement.
This product was milder than I expected during and after application. I was able to tolerate 8 minutes with it on my skin during the first application, and 10 minutes the second time. I felt mild to moderate stinging while it was on my face. I had no noticable peeling or redness afterward, and a slight improvement in the texture of my skin (smoother). I hope I will see more significant results (clearer, smoother skin, fewer breakouts and reduced scarring) after doing a longer series of treatments.

Nice Product and waaay cheaper than the professionals September 2, 2010
S.K. (Bethesda, MD)
I decided to order this product after spending way too much money on professional chemical peels. The product is exactly what I wanted. I have had some very light peeling and i feel like my skin has improved after a couple weeks of use. Hopefully, it will continue to as time goes on. my only issue with this product is the unclear directions. There are multiple places where the information on application frequency varies.
