I was super excited to try the Dr.Song Lactic Acid Face Peel. This is the first time, I've ever tried a face peel. I usually just stick with masks. So, naturally I you-tubed a bunch of videos to see how/if it works. Result: It does.
Lactic Acid is one of a few peels that has many benefits for the skin. Mostly, it is to correct age spots, freckles, sun spots, skin lightening, hyperpigmentation, wrinkles and fine lines. It is 50% lactic acid, which is really good for beginners like myself.
It comes in a tempered, frosted, high quality, and durable glass bottle. The consistency is transparent, and clear. It's a gel like substance. It's got a medicinal smell to it, nothing terrible.
Ordering from Amazon was super easy, and shipping was fast. They do offer tracking. After receiving the product. I opened it to find a little card, that said detailed instructions on how to use the product would be provided to the email registered with amazon. I thought that was nice, until I checked my email and still have not received information. ( I may have missed this, or since because I received this free through tomoson, that's where they sent it) Regardless, I did get instructions from them via tomoson.
According to Dr.Song, this is what you need to do:
Step 1: Cleanse the face, neck, and gently pat dry.
Step 2: Apply a small amount with a brush or cotton ball to the area and leave on as needed. Rinse product with water and pat dry after. Leave on for 1 minute for your first peel and slowly increase the time of each peel afterwards by 1-2 minutes as needed. General recommended time is 1-2 weeks between each peel. Your skin may be pink and sensitive for a few days after a peel. Please keep in mind, these are general guidelines, and everyone’s skin is different. Peel times vary from person to person, which can only be learned through experience and patience to avoid any burns. Skin patch tests are the most accurate method and minimize risk.
Precautions and Warnings
Precautions:
Keep the peel at least a quarter of an inch away from the eyes and mucus membranes.
If skin irritation occurs remove the product by neutralizing with cool water immediately and consult a physician.
Do not apply the peel more than once in a 7 day period
Do not expose your face to the sun for 24 hours before or after the application of the peel.
Do not apply the peel to the skin that has been waxed or shaved within 24 hours
When using the peel a stinging sensation may occur, this is normal
I followed their instructions. Only thing I didn't do, was I was out of cotton balls so I used some toliet paper. (It's made from cotton right?) I used two maybe dime sized amounts, you probably dont have to use that much though. I left it on for 1 minute since it was my first time. My experience. Is WOW does it ever tingle. Your face will feel itchy as well, and I did put it under my nose, so I could smell it the entire time, I probably wont do that again! I washed it off with water just like they said. I did however end up washing my face gain with my konjac sponge, just to make sure it was all gone. I used my toner, and some moisturizer, I have some with sunscreen in it. It's important that you use sunscreen as your face will be sensitive for a couple of days My face was pink for a little bit afterwards, and Icould feel the tingly sensation only for a minute or so after I rinsed it off. So far, so good. My face color has evened out, not really noticeable enough for others to really see. I think after another 1 or 2 uses, it will really be noticeable. Over all, I really did like this, and will continue to use it! I urge others to try as well!! If you would like to order you may do so here:
