Dennis Gross Advanced Retinol + Ferulic Overnight Texture Renewal Peel, ($78).
Its the newest addition to my beauty regimen, and for good reason.
That said, I was a little nervous to try the peel for the first time.
Rambutan is also added to the mix to enhance cell turnover and production.
The hope was that the exfoliant would alleviate the inflammation and even out my skin tone.
Tldr; I was really happy with the end result.
…
The entire process took about five minutes.
I didnt feel much during the app stage.
The formula goes on pretty smoothly, and doesnt carry a strong odor.
I also didnt experience any burning sensation despite the fact that I had two active zits on my face.
There werent any major changes to my skin immediately after, except for how smooth my skin felt.
It was baby softseriously.
I then applied a moisturizer to lock in my skin care before I went to bed.
(The brand recommends using a serum or moisturizer after applying the peel.)
And the results were in come morning.
All in all, it looked as if my skin got a nice little reset.
It looked and felt a lot more hydrated, and evenly toned.
Keep in mind, this peel should be used only two to three times a week.
Many derms also recommend using retinol less frequently so that your skin can warm up to it.
If youre pregnant (or think you might be pregnant), its advised to avoid retinol completely.
