Are you tired of your skin looking, well, tired?

Is all of the sun damage you inflicted in your youth showing on your skin now in the form of age spots and fine lines?

Would you like to safely take years off the look of your skin in the comfort of your own home, while saving hundreds over having it done professionally?

If you answered yes to any (or all) of those questions, you have come to the right place. We carry a full line of professional quality skin care products to help all of your skin care concerns.

Glycolic Acid has long been a first line product of the finest spas and Dermatology offices for improving the skin. For those of you who have heard the term 'Lunch Time Peel', this is the chemical used for it, and it is used by many if not most of Hollywood's most famous faces (women AND men!) and the Rodeo Drive clientele who can afford the best that money can buy. These peels will cost from $75.00 - $500.00 PER PEEL at your Dermatologists office or your local high end spa. Now you can do these peels at home safely and with fantastic results.

Each bottle of our 40% Glycolic Acid Peel will yield approximately 10 peels done at 1 month intervals, a potential savings of $733.00-$5000.00!. After peeling your skin will be feel softer, look smoother, with improved texture and tone and reduced (sun damage). Those are the differences on the surface of your skin. With collagen stimulation under the skin, fine lines and scars are smoothed out. With a peel of this strength, a full course of peels (8-10 peels) are needed to see optimal results.

This is a 30ml (1fl oz) bottle of 40% Glycolic peeling solution, medical quality, pH 1.5 in amber glass to preserve the activity of the product. Along with the peel you will receive a detailed instruction manual and a free sample of our best selling Microdermabrasion Crystals (one per shipment). This is enough peel solution for approximately 10 full face peels.

Chemical peels are versatile tools that are used to resurface the upper layers of your skin by loosening the bonds between the dead skin cells that dull your skin, while stimulating the collagen beneath the skin to form and align, which in turn plumps up the fine lines and scars from below the surface. They have been around since Cleopatra bathed in milk (contains lactic acid!) to make her skin smooth. Fortunately, science has made a lot of progress since then and the chemical peels available now are sophisticated and effective.

Glycolic Acid is a naturally occurring chemical belonging to the Alpha Hydroxy Acid (AHA) family. Derived from sugar cane, this important AHA is the smallest of the fruit acids and is able to penetrate the skin, allowing it to effectively dissolve the 'glue' that holds dead cells on the surface of the skin. The dead skin cells are what cause a dull, uneven skin tone, and the blocking of pores leading to blackheads and acne. This dissolving action of the Glycolic Acid allows the dead cells to slough off, leaving behind a smoother skin surface with clear pores. This also helps stimulate collagen formation under the skins surface which helps plump up the skin from beneath, smoothing out fine surface wrinkles and superficial scars.
Our 40% Glycolic Peel is a mild Glycolic acid peel and is suitable for all skin types and both beginning and experienced peelers. There may be some redness right after the peel, but generally there is not much if any actual peeling (hence the name Lunch Time Peel, you can go right back to work after you have it done). The 40% Glycolic peel is very safe when used as directed, but is a strong, professional strength peel (pH 1) and should be used only as directed.
As with all products, a patch test is recommended to see how your skin reacts to the peel.

This peel is very easy to use, you simply cleanse, apply, time it, neutralize and rinse. We include very clear instructions on how to use this peel
After you have applied the peel, your skin may be red, this is normal and will fade quickly. You may wear makeup to tone in down if you would like. About 2 days after the peel your skin may start to flake and peel slightly. You can encourage peeling by using warm compresses and taking hot showers, but you cannot pick at the skin! It must come off when it is ready to, not when you are ready for it to! By peeling off the skin you risk scarring by exposing skin that is not ready for the world yet, so allow the skin to shed on its own.
As with all exfoliating products, the use of sunscreen is essential to obtaining the results you are looking for. If you are not able to commit to using a sunscreen, this is not the treatment you should choose as you will just damage your skin all over again!

Better than a spa treatment September 18, 2012
Reviewer: Annette Bodem from Brooklyn Center, MN United States  
I've been doing spa chemical peels for years.  At home is better because applying it yourself allows you to get a more even application because you can feel where it is.  And, no need to make an appointment and go to the spa, I did mine on Sunday night at 10 pm.

Glycolic Peel 40% May 5, 2012
Reviewer: from los angeles, CA United States  
I received my glycolic acid peel a few weeks ago an i love it. I've always used glycolic in lotion or cream form but this is my first time using the actual peel. I also have to say, this company provides EXCELLENT service. They sent me this product with precise explanation,  how to use the product, what to expect...... in a very easy to understand instructions and samples (the same way).  BEST CUSTOMER SERVICE I'VE EVER COME ACROSS.  I will definitely be back for more products. !!!!

2 peels in...Glowing! December 22, 2011
Reviewer: Anonymous Person from IL United States  
I have applied 2 peels to my face in between TCA 15% peels as well as my neck and decollete (where I cannot use the TCA).  

My tired dry sun-damaged neck and chest look amazing after just 2 treatments.  

Also, I love that there is no actual peeling and the redness fades in less than a few hours.  

The peel seems to remove the old layer of tired skin and brings out healthy, glowing skin underneath.

You have a new lifetime customer! April 22, 2011
Reviewer: Khristie J from Atlanta, GA United States  
I've never had bad acne, but as an African-American, whatever acne I get leaves dark marks on my caramel colored skin, and takes FOREVER to go away. The only thing that ever helps are chemical peels, but who has the luxury of forking out a minimum of $100 for a peel? NOT ME!!! I had quite a few dark marks all over my T-zone and needed a solution, asap! I found this product on Amazon, and after all the great reviews, decided to try it. I LOOOOOVE it! It hasn't even been 24 hrs and my skin already looks much better. Most of the dark brown spots have already peeled off and are now red marks... which looks much better! It did sting, but was not unbareable, and it was amazing to see how it brought even the little hidden blackheads ect to the surface. I wish there was a way to upload a before and after picture so you all could see for yourselves. Can't wait to see the end result in a few days!!! Thanks for making such a great product and making it available and affordable for everyone!
