Must have for pushing 40!!
I did this peel once a week for 5 weeks, and now I maintain by using once a month. What a powerful tool in my regimen. It stings initially, but tough it out, the accumulative results are great. My skin is softer, fine lines are fading, old scars are really fading, as well as sun damage. I suffered with constant random pimples my whole life and always had one or two. In the year I have been using this my break outs all but stopped. I no longer wear foundation at all! My pores are much smaller, my skin feels moisturized and perfect. Even my boyfriend started using it.

Strong stuff-it's the real deal for me
I am a 44 year old pale white woman (lol, it's the truth) with sensitive skin.. and I still get acne. Light freckling, but mostly I stay out of the sun and that has helped my skin stay in pretty good shape.I am trying this product after using the Glycolic 35% peel and alternating with the Salicylic 20% peel. I used those off and on all last year until this fall. I wasn't noticing a tremendous difference other than acne reduction from both of those products. I also use a 2% Salicylic acid treatment every night to manage my break-outs.I have used the Glyco Lac 60 4 times, a week apart each time. It is more of a gel than the other two products that I have tried, so it is easier to apply.I don't really do anything beforehand, because my skin "takes" this acid well enough on its own. I started at 2 minutes, then 3 minutes, and this last time, 4 minutes. It is hot, burns like fire. Especially for the first 60 seconds or so. Then it seems to calm down. My skin is red and puffy for a couple of hours afterwards-and this last time, I had distinct little burn/blister marks on my right cheekbone and forehead. Ouch. Will go back to 3 minutes when I do it again.It definitely leaves me with a layer that dries out and flakes off starting about 3 days after a peel. I even use moisturizer and everything-it still totally dries out my face and peels it down. Interesting stuff.There must be such a huge difference in skin types. I notice that they do not list the smaller bottle of this stuff right now, which means they have probably sold out temporarily. But there were well over 100 reviews on the smaller bottle listing. And many of those people claimed very little peeling or discomfort. Some did though. I would hate for someone to read one of those and then really burn their face off with this product. It could happen. This is much stronger than the Level 1's.I guess I would recommend starting out prudently with this product. It is hard core for me. And I graduated up to it from lesser Level 1 products. You can misuse this and end up looking like Samantha did in that one Sex and the City episode. I think my face would be a total wreck if I left it on any longer than 4 minutes-red and peeling for days.But I do notice my lines around my eyes are decreasing. And my darker spots from acne are going away quickly. I will continue to use it. :)

Glycolac 60 Peel is FABULOUS!
This product works! I get a lot of compliments on my skin. This makes me happy because I am over 50, fair skinned and I've had a lot of sun exposure. I am pleased that it effectively diminishes the sun exposure evidence ( dark patches). My skin stays supple, soft and fuller looking. I will continue to buy and would recommend this product. Use it as directed and build up slowly if you are new to peels.

Skin Lab always delivers 100 %. This is the most concentrated and potent peel for the price. I have been using their skin peels for about 5 years now. The product usually arrives before the estimated date and in good condition. I use it primarily for my private dermatology practice.

Our Little Secret
If you've had chemical peels before and know how your skin reacts, this is a lot more convenient and inexpensive.My skin is not particularly sensitive and I have experienced no after-effects of peeling, sores, etc. No burning at all either.I cleanse my face, use rubbing alcohol to take off any oils and then apply the liquid. I find the area around my nose is most sensitive, so I will apply last/lighter if at all. I also apply to neck, decolletage & tops of hands (all cleansed & alcohol'd). Keep on approx 10mins (that's ME). Wash off thoroughly. I apply moisturizer for sensitive skin afterwards and deliberately do on a "no makeup day". I am religious about sunscreen - you will feel some sensitivity from sun for a few days. After 3-4 days, I will swtch from gentle cleanser back to stronger glycolic cleanser & moisturizersI've graduated to stronger pure glycolic peel now - but I have noticed definite evening of skin tone, improvement of fine lines & pores seem tighter. I was doing peels every 2-3 weeks.One thing to keep in mind. I am not one who gets pimples often, however EVERY time I do a peel, I will get a few on my chin & around my nose. Otherwise, my face is super-smooth and glowy.I turn 40 later this month. Most people think I'm 33-35. (I had to decline being nominated for "35 Professionals to Watch Under 35".) My dermatologist - who I don't see for "face stuff" says he wouldn't rec'd a single product or procedure in his arsenal.I don't attribute it all to this, but it's definitely one of my "secrets".
