Everything you need to know about an at-home face peel treatment

I always feel like I’m one step closer to Korean “glass skin” (aka luminous, clear skin) after getting a professional chemical peel in a beauty salon. The last time I got one was after having a baby and my skin was looking extremely tired and dull. The peel worked wonders. That dead layer of skin that had been lingering for months was finally stripped away. My complexion instantly looked brighter and more even-toned. But the downfall of getting regular in-salon peels can be the expense. So when Dr.Lewinn’s Reversaderm Corrective Skin Peel came across my desk, I was excited to know it could lift dead skin cells without me having to fork out hundreds a year.

Containing 15% alpha hydroxy acid complex of glycolic, lactic and mandelic acids Dr.Lewinn’s Reversaderm Corrective Skin Peel works to resurface the upper skin layer, remove dead skin cells, unclog pores and help to diminish skin imperfections.
I’ve been using it for a couple of months now and I’m addicted. I can’t get enough of it. After cleansing and applying eye cream at night, I used one pump all over my face. It can give a tingling feeling if you apply it to pimples, but for me, it didn’t make them any worse. It actually felt like it’s created a protective barrier over my face. The texture of my skin instantly felt much smoother, especially around my nose area where blackheads tend to appear. On that topic, it’s great for clearing out blackheads. I still get a few, but my pores have been much clearer since using the Peel. Once you’ve applied it you can go about the rest of your skin care routine without having to wash it off. It’s so easy to use.
But the beauty of this Peel is you only have to use it twice a week to reap the benefits. It’s the one beauty product I’ll never skip again.

Ooh this looks good! I have used a AHA 'peel' before and found it to be quite good.

Do all AHA containing products are called "peel" now? I am so confused with the use of this term. How does it differ from "exfoliate"?

Good question. They're still doing the job of exfoliating.

I love Dr Lewinns skin care, but I’ve not had a chance to try this peel. I like how easy it is to use and the fact you don’t need to rinse it off.

YES! Now that's a product I want to try. I used one similar to this about 12yrs ago but it went off the market for some reason.

It sounds lovely and something you only need twice a week is great.

The fact that you don’t have to wash it off is good. As I used one once which I had to wash off after a certain amount of time and I left it on 5 min too late and it looked like I was sunburnt.

It's great you don't have to wash it off - one less thing to do.

I use an acid toner most nights and acid peel once a week. Having an acid peel at a salon seems too harsh

I haven't tried any of Dr. LeWinn's product's & I've never had a professional peel before either. It sound's ok but I don't the grapefruit ingredient in it so I might consider having a peel instead I'll have to look into that.
