My holy grail skin product
I cant live without this product. I have chicken pox scars on my face and in just one use, this produce helped reduce their appearance. I've worked my way up to using it twice a week as part of my nighttime routine. My skin hasn't looked better in 20 years! If you have sensitive skin, you want to leave it on for just a few mins once a week and gradually work yourself up to 10 minutes. It burns/tingles a tiny bit, but nothing that isn't tolerable.

Love this stuff
I used this 2 times a week and my face was so clear. Not so much right now because i haven't been consistent with it. I use the ordinary niacinamide after and moisturize. I recommend to not use this if you have anything open on your skin unless you are ok with a burning/tingly feeling. For me it also itches the first few mins.

100% Worth the buy-- complete texture overhaul
I have been using this for about two months now, 2-3x per week and for about 7-10 minutes per use. Let me tell you… my skin has never been better. I started this mainly to treat my closed comedones, but it has done so much more. Not only are they gone, but my pores are clearer and smaller, my fine lines are disappearing, and my skin is SO glowy! I love this product, a little too much lol! I have way more confidence going without makeup now and when I do wear makeup, it sits much nicer on my skin. No more rough texture and visible pores. As you can see in my before photo, I had a lot of rough and bumpy texture and visible lines, in my after photos you can see my skin is smooth. The only warning i will give is if you have sensitive skin, maybe stick to 1-2 uses a week at about 5 mins per use. It will sting a bit at first because it’s an acid, but it goes away quickly and the results are worth it. Def planning on using this product for as long as they keep making it!

Great product
I used this product 4 days apart with The Ordinary Niacinamide serem and light weight moisturizer every morning and night. My face is so much better in just 4 days! I have oily skin with more acne than I would like in my 20s mostly due to stress, but I have tried everything and this really seems ro make a difference when used properly.

Wow, very affordable & effective product
No weird odors, easy to smear on (dont get it on your lops!). Let sit for 10 minutes and rinse. Your skin will be instantly smoother. Love it. It does tingle, that lets me know its woeking!

Buy it!
This will burn your face off! In a good and bad way. It burns within a minute of putting it on and will make your skin red and temder. But day 2…… is amazing! Smooth as silk! I did put a ton if barrier support oj aftwe because of the burning but I do that nightly and haven't experienced these results. Sensitive skin people should maybe only do once a week or twice a week for five minutes.

I just use the product once. That was last night. I can honestly say that I seen a change in my skin after I washed it off. My nose is so ughhhh clogged pores, dry, black head just nasty looking. When I use this product omg my nose doesn’t look so dirty anymore. I bought the face cleanser and the moisturizer as well. I washed my face first and pat dried it and let it dry all the way. After I put the product on I let it sit for five minutes because it was my first time using it. It sting a tiny bit and it itched a tiny bit too. I think the key is to wash your face completely first and then let it dry completely before you put the product on your face. Like I said I used it last night and when I went to the gym this morning so many people were saying you’re glowing and your face look so smooth. I really like it so far I’m going to buy another one. My face is so smooth and look so fresh from one use.

Holy grail for textured skin and hyperpigmentation
I bought this for hyperpigmentation on my body from insect bites. This product helped fade the marks quickly. It is also great for clearing hyperpigmentation from body acne scars. On the face, I notice an immediate glow and smoothness. I have lots of sebaceous filaments on my nose, causing it to feel bumpy but this peel made my nose baby smooth. However, if you use too much product or let it sit for too long, there will be redness on your face so be careful.

It works
Stings a little but totally worth it. My combo skin can be hard to care for, but this exfoliant helps slough off the dry patches that have a habit of clogging my pores. My complexion is clearer and my make-up goes on smoother.

Nothing better for closed comedones!
If you use this correctly, it is amazing! I have very oily skin and I get a lot of closed comedones and blackheads which is why I purchased this product - and it's very affordable. Using this only once a week, leaving it on for 5-7 minutes, then generously applying my moisturizer has made a huge difference in my skin! My face is finally baby smooth again and my pores are clearer almost immediately after using this resulting in plump, brighter skin. I wouldn't recommend using this on active or inflamed acne, and I definitely don't recommend using it as often as the bottle states…seriously, don't use it that often. A lot of irriation can come from potent products like this, but if you're careful using it and not overly sensitive, it really does work wonders!

Yes, I would buy this product again
This product works really well for my skin. It calms down my rosacea and tightens my pores. I really like it. I use it about three times a week. It's convenient. It's not messy. Actually makes my skin feel more taught and it's easy on my purse. I highly recommend you give it a try.
