My weekly skin makeover!
-05.20.13
Quick Take: exfoliating
I've been using this weekly for about 3-4 months now. I'm getting married in October and really want glowing, smooth skin on our wedding day.
My skin in general is good, I've never had problems with breakouts or acne, but I do have some dryness and can use a boost in the radiance department. Using this weekly really helps sloughing off all the dead skin and reveals soft, smooth, fresh skin underneath. I even got a little sidetracked with my skincare routine for 2-3 weeks (wedding planning is stressful to say the least) and I quickly noticed the difference in my skin when I wasn't using this weekly: I was back to having dull, lackluster, sort of uneven skin. Even with just my first treatment back from those few weeks immediately showed the results I had become so accustomed to.
Definitely a must-have skincare product!

The best exfoliator around!
-05.14.13
Quick Take: awesome!
I've tried several exfoliating products and keep returning to this one. It is the most effective at removing surface dullness, making my skin glow and priming my skin for maximum benefit from my moisturizer. This product is an essentail part of my routine.

Quick Take: peel, exfolient
The sample system works at Sephora. I recieved this as a sample and had to buy the real thing. I find this to be a great resurfacing product and wonderful exfolient. I use it twice a week.

It really works!
-05.08.13
I've had this product twice-- the first was a sample. It really transformed my skin! I had a lot of previous damage from acne and sun. Once my skin calmed down post-acne I began using this and it gave my skin the most amazing fresh glow! Especially on my forty-something skin, this made such an improvement! Highly recommend :)

Gentle and Thorough
-05.02.13
Quick Take: gentle, thorough, effective
This exfoliating product is both gentle and thorough. I have to admit that my skin is somewhat sensitive so I am very gentle with my rubbing in the first step and even in the 2nd step. I know I would never be able to exfoliate for the 60 seconds they mention. I do love the way the 2nd step feels.

Awesome Peel!
-04.30.13
Quick Take: effective
I love this peel and have been buying it for years. You use it at night and wake up with refined skin. Even if I'm breaking out, I use it gently and after rinsing I apply acne meds..because it takes off dead skin cells and opens pores, the meds work better and my face is much clearer. I have tried many OTC peels and this one works best for me, I would pay even more if I was forced to.

Makes your skin feel soft.
-04.23.13
I use this product once a week. I work long odd night shift hours so I constantly need that resurfaced feeling. This product does the job. I don't exactly notice anything different with my old blemishes or preventing any pimples. This is still really calming for my sensitive skin.

Evens out skin tone and surface!
-04.22.13
I have hormonal breakouts on my cheeks often, which result in dark red acne scars that last for months. However, after my last breakout I noticed surface changes in my skin as well - small indentation scars. My makeup did little to hide them and I was concerned they would not go away without a dermatologist's help - if at all.
I'm so pleased to report that this product not only makes my skin glow and noticeably even out tone after one use, but has evened out the surface of my skin, with my scars virtually gone within 2 uses!
I highly recommend this peel! If your concerned about price, a little goes a long way, so this product will last for months.
I will note that I tried using this twice a week and it was too much for my skin - I developed dry patches on my cheeks after being exposed to sunlight. I will stick to the once a week regimen as recommended on the packaging.

READ FOR SURE! AMAZING STUFF!!!!
-04.21.13
Quick Take: easy to use, long lasting, worth the price, great for sensitive skin
I have extremely sensitive skin, in the sense that everything makes me break out - I cannot even use Bare Minerals Face Powder! Not only can you feel this stuff working - during both steps (you FEEL the crystals exfoliating your skin; you FEEL the gel heating up and activating and "gently burning away" all that extra lower dead skin... In the end, when you rinse, it feels like your skin isn't yours anymore. SO SMOOTH!!! I read a review on here that someone hated it... that it was no better than a "normal cleanser" and it "did not remove her blackheads" and gave this product a bad review. THIS IS NOT A FACIAL CLEANSER lol... this is a PEEL... its intention is to exfoliate and remove dead skin cells - you can bet your sweet *** it does JUST THAT, too :)
This product is worth the price - it costs the same (possibly less) as going to go professionally get ONE peel like this done... and it lasts because it takes so little- so in the end, these little bottles will go a long way!

not what I expected
-04.09.13
Quick Take: like a normal cleanser nothing special
after reading all of the great reviews I decided to try this product, but in all honestly I see absolutely no dramatic difference as the other reviewers claimed. it cleans the skin just like any other cleanser and I dont feel it exfoliates at all I was hoping it would help with the blackheads around my nose but after 4 uses they are still there. I dont think its really worth the price.

phenomenal!
-04.06.13
This product has become an indespensable partof my skin care regimen. I decided to give it a whirl, on a whim, after the sales woman I was chatting with told me how famtastic it was... It did not disappoint! the grainy scrub is step one followed by the liquid, which causes the sceub to foam. after following the simple instructions i rinsed it off my face and with my first use I saw an immediate improvement in the tone & texture of my skin. the clarity & brightness was remarkable! my skin felt smoother and softer than ever. i use it once a wk and just love it. recently i examined my skin with a magnifying mirror moments after rinsing tis product off my face and thoroughly patting dry w/a towel (prior to applying moisturizer). I could see that all of the surface black heads had been cleared and the oil & whatever else black heads consist of that had been trapped deeper under my skin, had been lifted to the surdace and were then easily removed with a facial tool. i recommend this to every woman over 30. absolutely wonderful!

Quick Take: fun to use smells great; brightens skin evens ou
I bought this after reading great reviews. It really is great, I use it once a week and it brightens my face, gets rid of dull skin, makes my face super smooth and I my skin feels tighter. It smells great and is fun to use- kind of like a mini facial. It has not reduced my pores though:(

Decent, not sure it's worth the cost
-03.30.13
This is actually my second purchase of this product. I thought it was worth another shot. I do see an improvement in my skin, it's softer and maybe a tiny bit more even. But I can't say it's worth the price. I've used other products that deliver the same results for less. I doubt I'll purchase this again.
