8 days post peel
WORTH IT$30
all the crusting has healed but my under eye wrinkles are worse than before. I know this is because the skin is still very dry there. I am wearing makeup pretty normally but it cakes in my dry undereye wrinkles ;( also started using Vitamin C/ HA serum again and put on a yogurt mask yesterday to loosen up dead skin cells. I'm going to do my next peel in 8 days.

Really starting to shed
yesterday when I ran my hands over my face it felt like large grain sandpaper with other larger "crusties". Today that is all starting to come off. I am no longer using coconut oil but Eucerin only. I also used a Tinted BB cream and powder when I went to work. I can see outcome of brighter, clearer skin.

really appreciated your informative and thorough review. Could you talk a little bit more about the product you use for the peel?

I ordered from Amazon Skin Beauty Solutuons 70% Glycolic Acid Peel- unbuffered. My first peel stayed on for 8 minutes and second peel for 10 minutes before neutralizing with baking soda/water solution. Next time I will order the Jessner peel from Skin Obsession. People seem to be happy with their products. You do need to test each peel individually before doing a full application because the ph could be different even though they are the same percentage and acid.

Day 3- dark spots feeling scaly
This is day 3- Skin feels rough, crusty, tight , brown spots crusting. No more tenderness. I've been washing my face a couple times a day with gentle cleanser and kind of soaking it in warm water hoping it will promote exfoliation/decrusting my face. I then liberally reapply coconut oil. I've had a few whiteheads. I am assuming it's from the coconut oil. but no big deal.

You could also use a dry oil that won't cause whiteheads. It's PH closely matches your skins. I use Clarins lotus face oil after peels and all winter under make up.

Sweet almond oil is hydrating and non-comedogenic. NOW brand is pretty good, I use it straight or as a carrier oil.

Coconut oil is very high on the comedogenic index. Don't ruin your results with a deep pimple! Something like Jojoba or sweet almond oil will be much safer.
