Bought the VI Peel thru living social. Was nervous about getting a peel as my skin is very fragil and usually reacts badly to any harsh treatments.

Day 1, very little burning when applied.
slightly pink but fine, went about my day as normal.
Kept peel on till bedtime appx 12 hrs.
Washed off with mild cleanser, dried and then applied the 1st wipe --- slight burning.
so far have not used any other product.
Went to bed and WOW; crazy itching for about two hours. Put some hydro cream on and helped but be prepared for itching.

Day two, a little more pink and still a little itchy but tolerable, now using the hydro cream regularly.
night, washed and applied 2nd wipe. not as bad a reaction. went to sleep and no problem.

Day three: skin turning a little more brown an tight but comfortable. noticed some slight cracks around mouth and chin.

Day four: starting peeling alot around mouth and nose. Very comfortable and no problems.

Day five: peeling like crazy nose, cheeks forehead, just starting on the neck thank God.
Neck had been itchy.

Day six, WOW, my skin looks incredible.

Highly recommend.

Great review?

HI anon, 

I love your day count down, I wish everyone did that. You mentioned you used a "hydro cream" is that something the doctor recommended, and what kind was it? The community often asks about what to put on when healing with a peel. 

Thanks,

-Britt
