Review of MD Formulations Facial Cleanser Sensitive Skin Formula Contains Glycolic Acid 8.3 oz For sensitive skin

MD Formulations Facial Cleanser Sensitive Skin Formula Contains Glycolic Acid 8.3 oz For sensitive skin
Average Reviews:

The woman who does my facials recommended this to me because I have sensitive skin.I found this cleanser to be great because it doesn't really have any odor to it, its really lightweight, non-drying and leaves my skin feeling very soft after a cleanse. One bottle lasted me about 3 months, so they give you a lot for the money it costs. That said, I also found similar results using Purpose that you can find at a drug store for a lot less. I actually switch off between the two now, since the Purpose is really gentle, but does not have the acid, which renews the skin.

One hint: use as directed. The bottle says to put it on a dry face and then rinse off, which I've never heard before, but you can feel a little tingle when you do it that way that you can't when you apply on a wet face, so I suppose it takes off more dead skin that way.

Review of Glytone Essentials Mini Peel Gel 2 fl oz.

The Glytone Mini Peel was a good product, but, it does leave me with questions. (1) What am I doing to my skin? (2) Should I be using something so harsh? (3)I did not like the scaly skin on my face.
Then I tried the Microdermx by Nikkel Holistic Skincare and I just could not believe the feel and clarity of my skin. Also it has a firming feel.
I do the full treatment 2-3x's a week and use it as a face cleanser every morning. And each day I can see the clearer, fresher looking skin emerge. It is like each day is better than the day before. I love it and just won't be without it.

Review of Glycolic Acid 35% Gel Peel, 30ml (Professional)

Glycolic Acid 35% Gel Peel, 30ml
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
My skin and I haven't been on speaking terms for years.Horrible, brutal, stubborn, disfiguring cystic acne, so viciously tenacious that I had to go through...yes, count 'em...not one, but TWO rounds of Accutane to rid my self of it, and I STILL get a nice cyst on my back or chest every once in a while. I had pockmarks on top of pockmarks...forehead, cheeks, temples, chin, bridge of my nose even. I hate my skin, I really do. I've gone through 2 deep dermabrasions (through a plastic surgeon, not the micro kind), plus about 30 DEEP chemical peels.My scarring improved a lot.

But professional options get expensive, and taking weeks at a time off while my skin healed wasn't feasible.So I tried other methods to get rid of the rest of the scarring.

Over-the-counter products like Mederma didn't help.Then as I aged, I got grayish, blotchy, dull, oily-here-wrinkly-there skin to add to my scars.

Lovely.

I've used salicylic acid, makes my skin red and papery. I've used Mederma, nothing.

Sorry for the big lead in, but I wanted to give y'all a good idea of what I was already "facing" (sorry for the bad pun).

I saw this Skin Laboratories 35% Glycolic Acid peel advertised, decided it certainly couldn't hurt.

Bought it, received it very quickly, followed the easy-to-follow directions, love it.The lifeless, grayish appearance of my skin is gone.My smaller scars and pores are much diminished, after only 5 weeks of use, so much so that I can actually COUNT the number of scars I have left. (There were so many before, it was useless to count).

I will admit, I modified the instructions to fit my needs.I leave it on ten minutes at a time.Remember, I am a veteran of strong deep (EXPENSIVE) professional chemical peels, so my skin is quite tolerant to acid.I don't get a visible see-your-skin-flake-off "peel" from this product either (something a few of you have complained about), but that's so much the better!I don't have to miss work for a week at a time to let my skin heal, like with the strong chemical peels.But believe me, the skin cells ARE sloughing off and being replaced.You know how that 10 pounds just snuck up on you after the holidays, and you didn't notice?The skin rejuvenation you will get using this product is the same way: you don't notice it until it's done it's work.

I use this product once a week.After next week (my 6th), I'll wait a month before I go through the cycle again.

I'm also going to start using this product on my chest, which of course, is also scarred and weather-beaten.

Skin Laboratories, I Bow Before You.This is a superior product.

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.
