Applying Acetone 100% Necessary Before Vi Peel?

I'll be applying the Vi Peel after I come out of the shower, so my skin will already be thoroughly cleansed. Will Acetone still be necessary? Thanks.

A: Acetone Before Vi Peel

Although cleansing the skin with soaps will remove a majority of the dirt and debris from your face a good astringent is necessary to break up and remove the oils.  Acetone is basically the strongest astringent you can use that is not too toxic.  So, yes you do need to clean with acetone first.
