Chemical Peel - At Home!

Summer is almost over and our skin will soon start to repair itself from all of the sun damage from all of the wonderful, fun activities we did over the summer, right?

I know this first hand, as I naturally have freckles.  Over the years, I've noticed that my freckles were lasting almost all year around, and they got darker.  As I became more familiar with my skin, I started looking into doing something more.  Most of the time, I would occasionally go to the spa for a facial, which was awesome but my freckles were more permanent.  Normally, they would fade in the winter time and that would be it until the spring/summer time.

Last year I decided to really try something different.  I went in for a Microdermabrasion.  When I got there, the specialist told me I didn't need such a harsh treatment. I asked her what she thought I needed and she said the magic words - Chemical Peel.  So, I bought a series of chemical peels and started them that same day.  I have to say, the results were AMAZING!

In the package was an actual facial, and the peel itself.  I bought a total of 5 (they had a sale of half off, so naturally, I could not pass that up).  It really was a remedy for my drab ass skin I had after the summer season.  After the first one, my skin was radiant, evenly toned and I even saw a huge difference with my freckles!  Everyone commented on how fresh and glowing my skin looked.  I thought to myself, I found my rejuvenation...

I always have peels ready at my disposal.  The packages that I bought do not expire, so when ever they have a sale, I buy them.  However, with my knee surgery, I have not had the chance to get to the spa for a treatment.  Since I have been indoors since the 10th of July (knee surgery has had me indoors most of the summer) my beautiful deep dark tan that I had in June, is gone...so, I decided to prep my skin for the cold weather.  I find that being indoors most of the summer gives me a head start on using some of my favorite products and actually try some new ones.

In the mist of me finding some new things to try, I came across a wonderful Avon Product called ANEW CLINICAL Advanced Retexturizing Peel Pads (Glycolic Plus Soothing Extracts)
I thought, Glycolic-this is the ingredient that the spa uses on my face.  At home, after I have cleansed my face, I simply take a pad and pass it on my face.  You will feel a slight tingle, that is a good thing, and you allow it to dry and then moisturize after.  That's it.

At the spa, there are 3 types of peels, I go with the Glycolic peel as my skin can tolerate it and my skin also produces a lot of oil in certain places.  I said I am going to give this a try.  I LOVE this product.  It's a great way to refresh your skin for fall, to reveal your best skin ever, and also for those that cannot make it to the spa for a chemical peel, this is a great alternative.  Great for Mom's on the go and for those whose schedule will not let up a bit if "you" time.

People tend to forget to take care of their skin.  It is the largest organ we have and is the most exposed to all of the elements of life (both good and bad).  Crisp air will be here soon, so get a head start on refreshing your skin, beautiful, healthy, glowing skin says a lot with our words.   I like to make that impression....it says a lot about me.  You should too!  You can find this product online, trust me you will not regret.

Enjoy!
