Algenist Triple-Action Micropolish & Peel

What it is:An advanced microdermabrasion peel that resurfaces the skin texture and tone. What it is formulated to do:This microdermabrasion peel contains a 10 percent acid duo (patent-pending Alguronic Acid and glycolic acid) in a potent combination with a 10 percent fruit enzyme complex and micro polishing crystals to immediately transform skin texture and tone. The acid duo and fruit enzyme complex work deep into the epidermis to dissolve the smaller skin-dulling cells and regenerate smoother, more even skin underneath. As cell turnover is stimulated, the active formula exfoliates and resurfaces, correcting skin imperfections and instantly improving texture and tone for smoother, brighter, more radiant skin. What it is formulated WITHOUT:- Parabens- Sulfates- Synthetic Fragrances- Synthetic Dyes- Phthalates- GMOs- Triclosan What else you need to know:Alguronic Acid is a powerful compound responsible for regenerating and protecting the microalgae cell. This unique ingredient was unexpectedly discovered by a team of biotechnology scientists in San Francisco while researching microalgae for renewable energy solutions. When scientifically tested, Alguronic Acid demonstrated significant antiaging properties: increasing elastin synthesis and cellular regeneration. Algenist is the only line of skincare products to contain the antiaging power of Alguronic Acid. This product is for all skin types, dermatologist tested, hypoallergenic, non-irritating, non-comedogenic, and not tested on animals.

Quick Take: non drying, gentle
I got this as a sample on my last order. While I didn't notice any "brightening" it did leave my skin soft and smooth. It had a nice warming affect as I put it on.

Amazing!

Quick Take: great!
I got a sample of this product, used it and I have to say this made my skin feel so soft and clean. It is a peel and I was hesitant of using it because it might be too strong for my sensitive skin. I was highly impressed. This is a great product. I wish it was cheaper. This will def be my next buy!

I got a sample of this product and it was amazing. It thoroughly cleaned and exfoliated my face without leaving it red or irritated as some scrubs and peels often do.

I liked this peel because it was gentle and didn't leave my skin red like most others do. It left my skin feeling cleansed without it being drying.

got this as a sample and fell in love. pricey but worth the money. i have oily, acne prone skin that dries out if i use harsh treatments. this doesn't dry my skin out but leaves the surface feeling smoother and looking healthier. definitely didn't break my skin out, and i'm breaking out a lot less now that i use this about once a week.

I have been using this mircro polish peel two times a week and it really brightens up my skintone., I apply the Algentist pore refining gel after I use this and it goes great together and works wonders for my skin. I will be repurchasing this when it runs out. If your looking for something to brighten up your skin, give this product a try.

Quick Take: firming, brightening, evens out skin tone and discoloration
When I use this peel it gives me an added radiance and glow. I get compliments on how beautiful my skin looks. I really do think anyone can benefit from this product. I love walking out of my house with little to no makeup on!

EXCELLENT!
-04.09.13
This stuff is a GOD SEND. It works well with my sensitive skin and I GLOW. I have used this twice a week for two weeks, and now I have even stopped wearing most makeup. I put on a tinted moisturizer and mascara now because my skin is so lovely. This is a MUST have peel, great exfoliation, my skin is clear, smooth, and it's made a hug difference in how my moisturizers go on. No more dry patches!

This really gets the dead skin off, and it has lightened some brown spots (I don't like to call them age spots) on my face! Get it!

Quick Take: amazing!
This is amazing. I got a sample of this in one of my orders and tried it out. My skin has never looked or felt this good from any mask before. I have acne prone skin and acne scars and immediately I noticed dimming in the scars and more even skin tone. I am going to have to splurge and buy this...some things are worth the splurge, and skin care is always one of them!

Definitely Exfoliates!
-02.05.13
Quick Take: exfoliating, renews the skin to reveal radiant skin
Since the instructions say it should be left on the skin for a while before scrubbing and rinsing I use this in the shower. I got this a sample from my last purchase and I must say I love it! My skin feels so smooth and glows after I use it. It doesn't irritate my sensitive, acne-prone, dermatitis-prone, oily skin. Even after I'm done with it the first day, my skin will exfoliate at least till about one or two days afterwards which is AWESOME! And no, it doesn't make my skin flake, you can wear makeup just fine after using it. Just that at the end of the day when you wash your face you'll notice little bits of your skin like rubbing off, just like a real peel but better! And I've had a peeling done before and I love this better than that with almost the same effects considering the peeling did little for my skin. I haven't payed attention the the "evening" skin tone effects but my skin definitely radiates and looks magnificent! As soon as I'm able to save up enough money I'm definitely purchasing this again! I would recommend it for weekly use.

Worked great initially
-01.21.13
I received this as a sample and was able to get two uses out of it. The first time I noticed a huge improvement in both the texture of my skin (SO soft!) and in preventing adult acne along my jawline. The second time I didn't notice the same effect and it didn't seem to prevent the acne as much - maybe my skin "got used" to it. I will try another sample before I decide to buy the full size. It have somewhat sensitive skin and it didn't seem to bother it at all.

Smooth as glass!
-01.14.13
Quick Take: amazing!
After receiving and using a sample packet, I was hooked! ONE USE is all it took to make a believer out of me. Gentle, yet completely effective, my skin was smooth, polished, glowing.
I ordered a full size tube immediately.
I have now been using the product twice a week for several weeks and my skin is clearer, smoother, and glows like it is lit from inside out.

Can't Justify the Price
-01.02.13
I got this as a sample and it's alright. Nothing particularly wrong with it, it smooths and clears skin like ti's supposed to. The price tag is really steep though, I would say if your looking at this for scrubbing and acne purposes Sephora sells products that are much cheaper and just as effective. For aging skin concerns I really can't say since I don't have any of those. It is gentle and it works fine I just think that there are other products at a lesser price tag that give similar results.
