I just bought some. When it arrives. How do I use it, since I have 50%, How long do I keep it on my face? And I wanted to know if anyone has had good results from this?
Alecia

if u have never used it, it's strongly advised that u don't start with 50% because it is very strong and you don't know how your skin will react to it, it might burn too much and make existing marks worse

i recommend that you start with an AHA lotion first and see how your skin takes GA, then start slow, use nothing more than 30% as your first peel. how long to leave it on depends on your skin. if you put it on and there's extreme discomfort, wash it off immediately...if the tingling/burning is not too significant, leave it on for prehaps 5 minutes and then have a look at the results throughout the week, if nothing seems to happen, leave it on for longer the following week

slowly build up to 50% strength
although it sounds corny, but it's better being safe than sorry!

good luck with it! i have been using 50% for 3 weeks now but i am starting to feel it is a little too strong, prehaps i'll tone back down to 40%...

is it possible to simply water down higher concentrations of glycolic peel to a lesser amount? e.g. 1 part water to 1 part solution should make it 25% glycolic peel, a decent place to start i figure.

Janero what kind of results are u seeing from the peels? Any improvements in redmarks, pigmentation, texture, tone, complexion, etc.? THNX

u really have to try these glycolic peels. they work pretty good. u wont see results the 1st or 2nd peel...but maybe with the 3rd or more. just be patient and do it once a week at 30%.
