I have been concious about my skin for a long time as I had Hyperpigmentation, particularly on the upper lip. I also have wrinkles around the eyes and scars from spots on my checks which I've wanted to get rid of for a long time.
I ago seemed like the most fitting option so I decided to purchase the system.
I am only using the cleanser, toner, clear, sunscreen and blender & tretenoin.
Day 1:
On day one my skin looked great! I looked like I had a sun tan as I was glowing, good a bough for me to go out with no makeup! My skin was even and the Hyperpigmentation was not visible on my upper lip! I couldn't believe it but I knew it was not going to last as I knew I was going to peel.
Day 2: No difference except a slight tingling around the mouth and upper lip and I looked more red than tanned.
Day 3 & 4: I'm so glad it's the weekend as my skin is peeling around the mouth and its definetely by pretty. My mouth is very tight and when I talk or make any facial expressions the skin starts to sting. It is VERY dry and the toner and clear are very harsh on the skin.

Day 6
Day 6:
The toner does not sting when applied which is great as I dread the toner! By skin is EXTREMELY dry and the skin on my Chin/ below my lower lip cracks every time I talk. It also stings and I've noticed that there is skin around my jawline which is pretty raw in comparison to the rest of my face - I've decided to lower the amount of each product I am putting on as I think I may have got a bit carried away.

Hi, thanks for sharing your experience with us! Is there any salve or moisturizer you can put on your skin or would that defeat the purpose?

Day 7
I used cocoa butter on my chin as it was so painful, I could not even open my mouth as the skin was so tight! It helped instantly and I will be staying clear of my chin for now. Today my skin was dry and during the day I applied the sun tan lotion. I've noticed a lot of tiny blackheads appearing on my nose which I did not have before and the skin on my forehead and eyelids is starting to tighten and wrinkle. The pigmentation on my upper lip is becoming more visible which is quite annoying but I will deal with it
