glycolic
lactic
salcylic
pumpkin/fruit enzymes
I want to mix my peels together to get a deeper effect but not sure if that is allowed. I'm too scared to do a Jessner or TCA even though I am tempted...... |

I would not mix the peels together. You will be effecting the effectiveness of them. Do 1 at time, spaced out, and see which your skin may like best.
If you are new to peels start off with lactic or fruit enzyme. SA would helpful for acne but I can you tell it stings like crazy, so be prepared for that. |

Please do not mix. Glycolic is the mother of all peels. No more than 10% is all you need. Anything more and you will risk irritation. If you purchase Alpha Hydrox or Neo Strata glycolic creams they do a super job of smoothing the skin. I would go that route. Keep it simple. |

| You can't mix peels together because each acid has its own specific pH that it works best at. Each acid is formulated specifically. If you mix them together who knows what kind of effect if will have on the acids and your skin. There ARE peel like the Vitalize peel which contain a combination of acids and are very effective. However these peels are carefully formulated by scientists. |
