I've wanted to get a chemical peel for a while now. I just felt like my skin had some rough texture that I couldn't get rid of with a normal facial scrub. In comes NIP+FAB Glycolic Fix night pads extreme

Now these pads are meant to be used 1 to 3 times a week. They contain 5% glycolic acid and a blend of AHA's and BHA's which helps to decongest dull skin to make the pores appear more refined and the complexion brighter.
For a while I was using these the recommended way, about 3 times a week, but didn't really see the results I was hoping for, which was a smoother texture. Then my idea of peel came in... I thought I would use them EVERY night for a week or 2 and see if I noticed anything. Let me tell you, after about 7 days my skin was soooo much smoother! This one fine line on my forehead was hardly noticeable and my skin became brighter and the redness around my nose lessened. Finally, the results I was hoping for.
If you're thinking about getting a chemical peel, or just feel like your skin is looking dull, I would give this a try. Now if you have sensitive skin, this may not be a good option for you, but if you feel like your skin can handle acids pretty well, then it's a great low cost option to try before going to the dermatologist. I'm so happy with the results. After about a week to 2 weeks of nightly use I went down to 3 times a week for maintenance. Just make sure you follow up with a good moisturizer or it WILL dry your skin out. I actually have dry skin, but this process didn't dry me out any further. I just used my usual Neutrogena eye cream and Biosance Squalane facial oil afterwards.
Have anyone tried these? What are your thoughts?
