Brazilian Peel Brazilian Peel™ 4 Applications

This is one of the best at-home peel treatments I've tried so far and I've tried several different types from top brand name products to drug store products. It received Allure magazine's 2010 Breakthrough Award!
Some at-home peels that claimed professional strength has irritated my skin in the past (strong tingling sensations that left my skin red and blotchy after use) while products that claimed they are gentle or for sensitive skin offered no visible improvement even after several uses. It comes with 4 application dosages packaged separately in syringe style tubes. The syringe is squeezed out right before application.

When the products are squeezed out and mixed, it warms up. This product felt gentle on the skin; there was a mild warmth and slight tingling sensation upon application which subsided within a minute. It's important to apply the mixture on clean and dry face and neck while the mixture is still warm. Wash with cool water after ten minutes and you're done!

After the first use, my skin felt noticeably smoother and brighter. The results are long lasting and got better with each use. To get ideal results the entire kit (4 applications) should be used within 4 weeks, once a week. After using all 4 applications, my skin appeared more toned, smooth, and bright. I'm very satisfied with the results and will definitely be re-purchasing this kit! One downfall is that this kit is not sold where I live (Canada)! I bought it while I was in US so I'll have to wait until next time I'm in US to buy this product again. I'll be sure to buy more than just one;)
