ASDM Beverly Hills 10% Glycolic Acid Kit | Review

10% Glycolic Kit



So I am pretty sure that anyone who wears makeup multiple days in a row will suffer from a muddy feeling on their face. By the end of the week I just feel like no matter how many times I wash my face or how well I remove my makeup, my face still doesn't feel clean enough. That is why I love glycolic acid! It truly removes and exfoliates all of my dead skin cells away and it removes any excess grime and dirt. 



Pre-Peel Treatment Pads

 

Any time that you use a glycolic acid you want to make sure that your face is completely free of oils or other impurities. After cleansing your face, use one of these pads over the entire face to rid your skin of any extra oil or left-over makeup. *Make sure to avoid the eye and lip area since these are sensitive spots. The purpose of the pads is to ensure that your skin gets the full benefit from the acid. It does this by lowering your skins PH level and unclogging pores. You may feel some slight tingles, but that is normal!


10% Glycolic Acid


All skin-care specialists will recommend you use a 10% acid during your first experience. This ensures that there is a lower risk of burns, especially if you don't have any professional training. This acid was very sensitive on my skin, but it also did its job very well. For this particular treatment, you put the acid on a cotton round and apply it to your skin. Again, you want to avoid the eye and lip area. After application, leave the acid on for 2 to 3 minutes depending on skins sensitivity level. I left it on for 2 minutes and my skin didn't show any signs of redness. After the time is up, wash off thoroughly with warm water. I immediately noticed a change in my skin's texture. It was so much more smooth and it felt like my pores could actually breath again! 


Post-Peel Treatment Serum


If you have sensitive skin, this serum is perfect for use after a peel or any type of face mask. It has a lot of healing properties in it, and is used specifically to balance the skin's PH level after using an acid. If you experience any form of irritation or redness, this serum will help with the healing process. Using the fanbrush that comes with purchase, and apply several pumps of the product to the skin immediately after acid or mask use. You may feel some tingling and you might see some foaming from the product. Even if the foaming or tingling stops, leave the product on for a full 10-minutes! This will ensure that the acid is neutralized. Follow with your favorite hydrating moisturizer!
