Product Description
Glycolic Acid has long been a first line product of the finest spas and Dermatology offices for improving the skin. For those of you who have heard the term "Lunch Time Peel", this is the chemical used for i.Now you can do these peels at home safely and with fantastic results. Each 1 fl oz (30 ml) bottle of Skin Obsession's 30% Glycolic Acid Peel will yield approximately 8-10 peels done at 3-4 week intervals, a potential savings of $733.00-$5000.00!. After peeling your skin will be feel softer, look smoother, with improved texture and tone and reduced hyperpigmentation (sun damage). Under the skin collagen is forming to plump up fine lines and smooth scars. With a peel of this strength, a full course of peels (8-10 peels) are needed to see optimal results. Glycolic Acid is a naturally occurring chemical belonging to the Alpha Hydroxy Acid (AHA) family. This important AHA is the smallest of the fruit acids and is able to penetrate the skin, allowing it to effectively dissolve the "glue" that holds dead cells on the surface of the skin. The dead skin cells are what cause a dull, uneven skin tone, and the blocking of pores leading to blackheads and acne. This dissolving action of the Glycolic Acid allows the dead cells to slough off. Our 30% Glycolic Acid Peel is a mild glycolic acid peel and is suitable for all skin types and both beginning and experienced peelers. There may be some redness right after the peel, but generally there is not much if any actual peeling (hence the name Lunch Time Peel, you can go right back to work after you have it done). The 30% is very safe when used as directed, but is a strong, professional strength peel (pH 2) and should be used only as directed. As with all products, a patch test is recommended to see how your skin reacts to the peel.By purchasing this product, you assume all risk associated with its use and are responsible for all results either intended or unintended from using this product.

Not super strong, but a safe way to get started with home peels
By Joy W.
Bought this because I have melasma secondary to birth control pills. I was honestly scared pretty bad by some youtube videos of people who had them done (by a professional) and things went terribly wrong. Then I read the reviews of this product and was not completely convinced this was a good idea. I have now done this peel 3 times. First time I left it on for 4 mins, got great results. Didn't notice any "flaking" but the second time I left it on for 6 mins and definitely noticed some flaking around the more sensitive areas on my face. Just did the thrid treatment this morning and already my face looks smoother, minus the little pink tinge. So here are my pointers:
1. Obviously, follow the directions. They come on printed paper with the acid. Don't leave it on for more than 3-4 minutes the first time. Honestly, would you rather have no results or permanent burns? Start slow, your skin is different from everyone else. This is a real chemical so be careful.
2. I liked using a brush the best for application. I just use a cheap art store one.
3. It didn't burn bad for me at all. Again, your skin is probable different from mine. I would imagine that if it is burning more than you can stand, you might want to listen to your skin and wash it off, quick.
4. Make sure you have baking soda, use plenty and splash your face for more than the recommended 1 minute. Use plenty of moisturizer afterward. Some people like to skip this in order to get the "flaking" over with faster, but your skin will have less wrinkles in the end:)
So as far as fixing my melasma, it has worked fairly well. I stopped taking the pill, and that plus the peels has faded my dark spots about 30%. I expect it to continue fading, i might trying a different kind of acid or buy a stronger glycolic. I will definitely stick with the brand Skin Obsession, they seem to have the real stuff.

Truly Incredible Value!
By PuellaDeVil
When I found this product last Friday while searching for an alternative to my dermatologist's $150+ glycolic peels, I was skeptical. How could I, for under $20, get a series of peels which would otherwise cost me over $1500? By buying this, apparently. As soon as my lightning-fast shipment arrived early Monday morning, I snatched it up, gathered my supplies (rubbing alcohol, cotton pads, fan, baking soda, water, and towel,) and dove in. The results? The smooth and radiant skin for which I am used to paying massive dough. When I drove by my dermatologist's office later than day, basking in my post-peel glow, I was filled with gratitude for this amazing product. It is very liberating to be able to do this yourself. I believe the best results will be achieved by exercising patience and caution--NOT by leaving the peel on for ten minutes the first time. Use good sense, and you, too, will be as impressed as I am by this truly incredible value!

Loving this so far!
By emellymel
I just used this for the first time a couple of days ago. Already, my skin feels softer and smoother and has a brightness to it that I haven't seen in awhile. I'm almost 43, but have never tried peels before so thought I'd start with 30%. The instructions were very clear and simple, the warning about the sting was very appreciated :), and it was easy breezy. Afterward, I had very mild redness that was gone by the next morning. I'm looking forward to seeing the overall results! So far, very pleased.
