Whether you need to get rid of acne or dull skin, these skin peels will get the job done.
Have you ever wondered why your skincare products don’t deliver results as promised? While it may all boil down to the ingredients used, there is also the possibility of your skin having a dead layer sitting on it. This prevents your products from penetrating your skin effectively. Layering more products over this dead skin barrier may just result in clogged pores and potential breakouts.
Rushing to the salon and getting a chemical or fruit peel isn’t always the most feasible or economic option. Thankfully, many skincare brands have released DIY skin peel kits which get the job done without compromising on quality.
What do skin peels do exactly? This nifty beauty invention helps to shrink and minimise the appearance of pores, which may be filled with excess oil and sebum. Peels are designed to remove the outermost layer of your dead skin cells, revealing a brighter and more radiant complexion. If you struggle with wrinkles and fine lines, peels may help to combat such skin woes.
It is important to pay attention to the concentration of the ingredients in the peel. Peels containing a low concentration of acid or fruit enzymes can be used at least twice weekly. Individuals with sensitive skin should use peels every fortnightly instead.
