Description
A gentle exfoliating lotion that boosts cell turnover, improves skin clarity, reduces the appearance of large pores, mimicking the rate of youthful skin. This process reveals a smoother, more vibrant appearance. It gives you a brightened and more even skin tone, and reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Glycolic acid dissolves the intercellular glue that binds dead skin cells together, reducing buildup, and then it also activates your skin's own hyaluronic acid.
Recommended for | Dry, normal, and combination skin types.
HOW DO YOU USE THE GLYCOLIC LOTION?
When adding an Epicuren Glycolic Lotion Skin Peel to your regimen, go in this order. First, cleanse your skin. There is no need to tone your skin, you just then apply the Glycolic Lotion Skin Peel. When first starting to use these products, start off with the lower percentage (5%), and then build your way up to 10% unless you are used to having glycolic peels. After cleansing, apply about a nickel-size amount.
Once applied, you will feel some tingling so you know it's working! When your first start, use it one time a week, and then gradually add it in up to three times per week. If you have been receiving glycolic peels at your spa, this is a great item to have at home to continue the results of that glycolic peel. It also is a good item if you cannot get to the spa that you could be safely using glycolic at home.
Directions
Shake well. After cleansing, apply a nickel sized amount of product over entire face, avoiding the eye and lip areas, starting at the forehead and ending at the décolleté. Omit any type of toner. Follow with specialty products and moisturizers. This product is to be used in the evening only; a maximum of 1-3 times per week.
