Hello Lovelies, as you may know, I am always on the lookout for the next best product. However, I am particular when it comes to the products I use on my skin. Exuviance is a brand that I have heard off and read many good things about including their glycolic peels. Therefore, I was excited when they sent me their Performance peel to test out.
Exuviance is the original creator of the Glycolic peel; I knew I would like their Performance Peel AP25 as I have heard many good things about their glycolic peel.
Their performance Peel AP25 is a safe two-step at home procedure. Some benefits of using this product are the Anti-aging and anti-wrinkle benefits.
This product is a six weeks supply and contains twelve single use peels plus one sensitivity test peel.
I like that these are pads; it is easy to use and mess free.
When I received my peel, I immediately washed my face with my gentle cleanser, rinsed my face with cool water and pat it dry. I then proceeded to use the sensitivity test peel on a small part of my face and followed the directions I used the peel mainly the right side of my jaw and Luckily for me; everything went well, no reaction.
Twenty-four hours later I used the peel on my entire face. These are the steps I took;
1. I used the STEP 1 Activator Pad all over my face avoiding the most sensitive parts such as my eyes and lip area. I then set my alarm for ten minutes and waited. As I waited, I experienced slight tingling and tightness, but that was of no concern to me as I had already done the sensitivity test. After ten minutes, I proceeded to STEP 2.
2. I applied STEP 2 Neutralizer Pad on my face and immediately rinsed my face. My face felt clean, relaxed, and refreshed like I had just had a spa treatment.
3. After washing my face, I applied one of my favorite moisturizers. I gently massaged and patted the moisturizer into my face for maximum absorption.
I must admit, my face felt so fresh and renewed after I finished using the peel. Using the Performance Peel AP25 is an easy at-home peel session that is equivalent to going to the aesthetician, and plus you can totally relax with a cup of warm tea and pamper yourself, and that’s what I totally did lol 😊😀😀. I use the peel twice a week.
IMPORTANT: The kit comes with 13 single pads (12 single-use pads plus one sensitivity test peel.) Before using the first peel, It is recommended that you use one STEP 1 Activator Pad and one STEP 2 Neutralizer Pad on a small part of your face following the directions. If there is no Irritation or discomfort after 24 hours, you may proceed with a peel of the entire face.
After a week of using this peel, I noticed smoothness and toned skin. My dark spots seem to be lightening. I am excited about this peel, and I will continue to use it twice a week.
If you are looking for an easy at-home peel, I will recommend you give Exuviance Performance Peel a try.
