Brazilian Peel: Gentle Glycolic Acai Peel

I know you spa-holics love your fancy anti-aging skin treatments, but have you tried a more affordable alternative? I recently got to test the new Brazilian Peel from Advanced Home Actives. This professional strength at-home glycolic peel is supposed to be five times stronger than the average home peel. Made with 30% glycolic acid and Acai berry, this super easy-to-use peel promises a reduction of fine lines with four weekly applications.

I tried this only once and already my face is smoother, brighter, and so much softer - like a newborn baby's tush. I was initially quite worried that it might irritate my skin but it didn't even tingle one bit. I did get some light pink patches on my forehead and cheeks, but they faded away after 30 minutes.

The peel and neutralizer are housed in two separate chambers within a slim syringe package. You pump it out and mix it together onto your palm to activate it (you'll feel a warming sensation as you mix it). There's plenty of product for the face, neck and decolletage. The best part is, it self-neutralizes in 10 minutes so you don't have to worry about timing or accidental irritation.


Cost: $78.00 for four weekly treatments (one month’s supply)

Available at: Sephora and Sephora.com

Wow, that looks really cool. That's amazing that it didn't tingle even though it's so strong. Gotta try that!
