Algenist Triple-Action Micropolish & Peel

What it is:An advanced microdermabrasion peel that resurfaces the skin texture and tone. What it is formulated to do:This microdermabrasion peel contains a 10 percent acid duo (patent-pending Alguronic Acid and glycolic acid) in a potent combination with a 10 percent fruit enzyme complex and micro polishing crystals to immediately transform skin texture and tone. The acid duo and fruit enzyme complex work deep into the epidermis to dissolve the smaller skin-dulling cells and regenerate smoother, more even skin underneath. As cell turnover is stimulated, the active formula exfoliates and resurfaces, correcting skin imperfections and instantly improving texture and tone for smoother, brighter, more radiant skin. What it is formulated WITHOUT:- Parabens- Sulfates- Synthetic Fragrances- Synthetic Dyes- Phthalates- GMOs- Triclosan What else you need to know:Alguronic Acid is a powerful compound responsible for regenerating and protecting the microalgae cell. This unique ingredient was unexpectedly discovered by a team of biotechnology scientists in San Francisco while researching microalgae for renewable energy solutions. When scientifically tested, Alguronic Acid demonstrated significant antiaging properties: increasing elastin synthesis and cellular regeneration. Algenist is the only line of skincare products to contain the antiaging power of Alguronic Acid. This product is for all skin types, dermatologist tested, hypoallergenic, non-irritating, non-comedogenic, and not tested on animals.

Questions & Answers for Algenist Triple-Action Micropolish & Peel

Question
bad idea to use this product on active breakouts? and will it cause a breakout?
i know it's hard to tell if a product is going to cause a breakout because everyone reacts differently and has different skin types, but i was wondering if this is the sort of product that is likely to make you break out. and i was also wondering if it's a bad idea to use this on an active breakout. i have some tiny bumps on my forehead and cheeks, i'm not sure what caused them, and i was hoping this product might help. thanks so much for any advice.

answer 1
My skin was uneven and breakout prone when I started using this and it really helped clear away a lot of smaller blemishes and bumps, and now I never breakout. Get a sample at your store and have the associate give you directions. it's AWESOME.

My experience has been that it is very gentle - no breakouts. The granules are small and not really rough, so using it on an existing breakout should be ok. The peel will help rid that dead top layer of skin and expedite healing.

Everybody's skin is different but I did use it on my acne & it dried my acne up. The key is to not let it stay on your skin too long. (5 mins.)
