Rou, peel or microdermabrasion...

lafeist

I have a kit of each but not sure when to use. I want the lactic acid peel to remove some red spots from old zits but not sure when to use microdermabrasion if I'm using a peel. Thanks.

i alternate with my peel one week - the Avon kit - and my dermabrasion kit - NeoStrata - the next.

I'm very excited to try these. I bought the Olay Regenerist kit last night and will try it later today. New face for the new year!

Thanks. Tried the lactic acid peel and it was so nice! No burning or itching like the glycolic peels.

Please let us know how you liked/disliked the Olay. I've been wanting to try the kit also. I'm waiting for a coupon to be sent to me.

I've been using the Olay regenerist kit for about a month or so and am very happy with it! Def recommend!

I tried it for the first time yesterday. It felt nice and peeled off all the dead flaky skin around my nose and mouth. Beyond that, it is probably too soon to tell. I'm going to try it twice a week for a month (or until my bottles run out) and see how I feel. So far, so good!

I've used my Olay Regenerist Microdermabrasion kit three times so far and I have already noticed a difference.

Not so much with wrinkles or fine lines, but with discoloration and red spots from past acne. It has made a very visible difference in those things. I can't wait to see how my skin looks in a few more weeks!

I bought the 40% lactic peel at makeup artist choice.com. I added a micaroderm. treatment after a peel and the red marks faded even more. Probably not a good idea to do every time. When I run out of the 40% I think I'll try the 50% or 60% to see if they are as gentle feeling as the 40%

I'm confused -- does Avon make a lactic acid peel (is that the Avon peel that rou referred to)?- If not, is it only the artistchoice.com one that you are referring to? I don't know a good gentle brand of lactic acid peel, so I would appreciate the help/recs.

the Avon product is the Anew Clinical 2-Step Facial Peel.

$32 US or $39 Cdn at the Avon website.

Thanks, Rou!

The lactic peel is from makeup artists choice. Sorry about the confusion
