Questions & Answers for Peter Thomas Roth FIRMx™ Peeling Gel

Question
Let it dry on skin?
Are you supposed to let this dry first before rubbing it? It doesn't say that on the tube (i have a sample size tube), so I can't tell if you rub this in while it's wet or let it dry on my face first.

Rub it in a circular motion to areas of face neck chin cheeks forehead until your skin stares peeling then move to another area. Leave on for 5 minutes to dry. Then wash off with water. I use a washcloth to remove any excess.

Don't let it sit, just rub it in. One of the reviews says it tells you to let it sit, but it just plain doesn't. Make sure your face is dry, use a generous amount and smooth all over face before massaging in (to ensure even coverage).

Hi, my name is Norma. To use the product apply it in a circular motion while wet. You can leave it on for a few minutes before rinsing.

Question
Is this product a smooth exfoliant?
I previously use the Peter Thomas Roth Pumpkin Enzyme Mask because it was an effective smooth exfoliant (now discontinued). The new pumpkin-based product has sand-like granules. Is this product a good replacement for the PTR smooth enzyme mask?

Yes. There are no scratchy granules in this product, the exfoliating is a chemical reaction (that makes it sound bad, but I like this stuff).

This is a smooth exfoliant and does not have granules in it.

answer 3
This does not contain any granules. It's a smooth gel that creates little bunches as you rub it into your skin (which apparently is your dead skin). It isn't a "scrub" type exfoliant at all!

Question
FirmX Peeling Gel vs. Amore Pacific Enzyme Peel?
I am trying to decide which one to purchase. Has anyone tried both? Are the results similar? I have tried the Amore Pacific and was quite amazed at how effective it was.

I have used both products and found that the PTR FirmX peeling gel works better for me. I use the Amore Pacific gel moisturizer and eye gel, both of which I love. For my dry and aging skin, I recommend the FirmX peeling gel.

I've tried both. They don't really work similarly at all in my experience, but they both leave the skin smooth after. The PeterThomasRoth has more of a novelty to it's use and works well. I tried out the AmorePacific more recently and I prefer the PeterThomasRoth.

The Firmx peel utilizes plant enzymes that are mild, so they are perfect for all sking types, even the most sensitive skin. The Clinical peel is a pumpkin enzyme peel, which is a little stronger and generally best suited for oily/combination to normal skin types.
