chemical Peel home kit

Discoloured patches have gone.
Still peeling a bit on the forehead but the main bits are done.

Will do it again definitely.
It's pink but that's normal and it's not too pink if you know what I mean lol.

So should I do another one.
Or
Glycolic or salicylic/mandelic?

Ive been using salicylic alternating with glycolic. I havent used the mandelic. However, i wouldnt do another treatment whilst your face is still pink (it needs to recover).

Just my opinion.

I'd wait a bit longer. I like to leave it 5 days in between treatments or longer if there is any pinkness in my skin.

Wow! well, i have read all of the posts and really want to have a go! I am 54 with dry skin, no redness, mo open pores, no scarring but brown discoloured patches on both cheeks from sun damage. I thinking….mandelic. Has anyone here bought from Skinfab…is it the ForeverYoung that folk on here have mentioned?

Forever young is now SR Skincare Annie.
Mandelic is a good starter acid my patches are now gone following the TCA but Mandelic/salicylic had faded them

40% Mandelic is quite strong if you have never used a peel before. I would advise you contact Kelli @ forever young and ask her advice. They have actually just brought out a bi-phasic peel. Might be worth looking at that as well.

I used to use the Mandelic/Salicylic acid peel 15%. Unfortunately they have a discontinued it. I did try the 20% but found it too strong.
