LOVE!

I currently work for Sephora and am always trying new products, I have fallen in love with this AMAZING peel. I love the smell, the deep exfoliation and the chemical/enzymatic peeling as well. I tried a sample and after two uses I noticed a night and day difference in the overall smoothness in texture and brightness in my complexion. Will definitely purchase!

best scrub
-05.09.13
Quick Take: great anti-age product
This is the best exfoliating scrub i've ever used. It really cleaned my skin and stripped the dead skin off -- and a few fine lines, too, or at least it sure looked like it. My skin felt and looked great afterward. This shouldn't be used by younger women -- too intense, I think. I am 52 (with very sensitive skin) and it is perfect. Surprisingly did not irritate my skin at all.

I love the pumkin in this. It is like a face scrub that leaves your skin soooo soft. My husband loves it too.

Seeing mild changes....
-05.04.13
I used a sample of this about 6 times and decided to get a full sized tube. After several weeks of use I have noticed brighter, more even skin. So far I have seen no changes in fine lines, but hope that will occur over time. A little bit goes a long way, my skin feels great afterwards, and it smells good!

Just okay...

I have been using this product for a few weeks. My skin feels somewhat smoother after using this product, but there weren't any mindblowing improvements. Given the price, I probably will not purchase again.

Amazing!
-04.15.13
This is the best peel I've ever used. It exfoliates beautifully and leaves your skin insanely smooth and glowing. I'm also totally in love with the pumpkin scent-- it smells just like Thanksgiving! It's pretty strong, so if you have very sensitive skin, this might not be for you.

-03.13.13
I've been using this twice a week for a few weeks and I think it's brightening my skin. Is definitely smoothing it. It's kind of expensive, but I have a hard time finding products that do not contain ingredients I am allergic to (nut oils, avocado oils, salicylic acid which is asprin, bark, lots of floral things). So far this is not making me break out in hives.

Gentle yet effective
-02.25.13
Quick Take: gentle, effective, smells good
I love the texture of PTR's Clinical Peel & Reveal. The granules are fine. It smells fresh. The instructions say Leave on for 3-7 minutes. More than once I've gotten busy with other things and left it on a lot longer than 3-7 minutes, once for an hour, several times for thirty minutes or so. I never had any adverse effects.
The first couple times I used it, I wound up with dry, scaly skin in the "parenthesis" around my mouth, but that stopped and now the skin is smoother and the wrinkles not as pronounced.

Very nice...
-02.18.13
I was in the market for a new exfoliator, and I am so glad I chose this one! This has improved the overall tone and texture of my skin. It has reduced the appearance of my acne scars. I can only use this once every 10 days or so, because I find it really is powerful and my skin reacts if I use it multiple times during the week. All in all it is a great product and definitely worth the price.

Best peal on earth!

This is the best peal I've ever tried, and it smells fantastic. My local store is often out, because it is so poplar. I'd give 10 stars, if possible. I LOVE this product.

The best I've tried
-01.25.13
Quick Take: the bomb
This is the best exfoliator I've ever tried. Better than Exfolikate, Glamglow, Modern Friction, Walnut Scrub... and many more I have tried. Something about the crystals is so exfoliating, but gentle. I get a really deep exfoliation, but it is still gentle enough for acne-prone skin this usually purges after a good exfoliation.

Such a great product!
-01.08.13
I've been using this product for a few months now and my skin has never looked better! I use this 2-3 times a week before bedtime. It exfoliates all my dead skin off and then I leave it on for about 5-10 minutes as a face mask so the enzymes can chemically exfoliate my skin as well. Soft, smooth, and even skin tone afterwards!

Quick Take: wonderfully smoothing
This is a great resurfacing treatment that meets the needs of exfoliating & leaves skin glowing & polished. Product is easy to use and not too harsh. I use 2-3 times per week. Small amount needed. Pricey but worth the results.

Not much in the way of results
-12.18.12
I used to get microderm then a peel at my facial place but it's so expensive, so I've been researching products that could take the place of those treatments. I tried this a few times and didn't feel like it did much other than exfoliate. It didn't really improve my skin in any other way; didn't do anything for acne, didn't brighten, didn't lighten dark spots. It was ok, and might work for someone with sensitive skin, but if you need real results, it's not that effective.

Love this!
-12.09.12
Another awesome PTR product!! I have very acne prone but sensitive skin with an oily t zone and dry cheeks (awesome). I started using a sample given to me at Sephora. First of all, the smell is delicious, pumpkin pie!! I scrub it in with my fingers and then let it sit for 3 minutes - my skin is too sensitive to handle any longer, then scrub again and rinse. My skin glows. I follow this peel with the oatmeal mask by FAB. It's my once a week treat for my skin!!!

I HEART PTR
-12.03.12
Quick Take: exfoliating
First, let me just say the scent is perfect for this winter weather. The texture is super fine and provides excellent exfoliation. I start with a clean, dry face. I spread this product gently over my face, wet my fingers, and scrub away in little circular motions. It has a wonderful warming effect and then it begins to cool. I usually hop in the shower after about 10 minutes and rinse it off. My face is smooth and it looks absolutely pore-less. It's a great pampering treat during a cold, snowy day, or any day your face needs a little brightening. Definitely worth the price, because a little goes a long ways and you're not using this on a daily basis... Maybe once or twice a week.

Very nice!
-11.29.12
So I should start by saying that I will continually compare this product to Philosophy's Microdelivery Peel, which is one of my all-time favorite skin care treatments. I have been using it for years but I like to try something different from time to time, so I decided to pick up this PTR peel during the F&F sale. On first use I was pleasantly surprised by the pumpkin smell (sort of an autumny alternative to the Microdelivery Peel's clean citrusy fragrance). I applied the peel in a thin layer as instructed and it went on very similarly to scrub you apply as step 1 of the MP. However I did notice that this peel irritates my eyes to the point of making them water for the first few minutes, which has never happened to me with the Philosophy product before, so I would be careful about getting it near your eyes (on second use I was able to avoid the eye area better and didn't have as much of a problem). It is for this reason only that I am removing 1 star from my review rating for this peel. Anyway, after applying the product, I wet my fingertips and began to exfoliate. I have to admit that I missed the foaming and warming sensation of the MP, but on the other hand it is nice to have the convenience of just one step in the application process, and to not have to worry about getting the ratio of scrub to gel right, which I still have not managed to perfect after years of using the MP. After rubbing the PTR product in for a bit I left it on for around 10 minutes (I think the recommended time is 5-7 mins). I did not experience any irritation, in fact I nearly forgot I even had the peel on. The only thing I felt was a mild tightening sensation. I then washed it off in the shower and my skin did feel nice but I didn't see much of a difference... until I woke up the next morning to a smoother, more even-toned complexion. I am very pleased with this peel! I have only used it one time since, in the morning, and I really felt like I got better results doing it before bed (I guess maybe because I didn't apply makeup afterward, and I know that supposedly your skin absorbs things better while you sleep). I am definitely happy with this purchase. I don't know if it will replace my beloved Microdelivery Peel but it is certainly a very nice alternative, so I probably will repurchase if I keep seeing results.
