I was wondering if anyone has used SkinCeuticals Gel Peel GL? As you guys know, I have been using SkinCeuticals for years and never heard of this product until I came across it on Ebay as a "Professional" size bottle. Do you think this is safe to use at home? I found the description:
Combined, glycolic and lactic acid work synergistically to exfoliate the skin while reducing irritation and dryness. Because of glycolic acid’s molecular structure, it penetrates quicker and deeper than other AHAs to perform at all levels of the skin. Lactic acid is an effective yet gentle AHA that increases moisture levels by stimulating the production of glycosaminoglycans. By accelerating the cell renewal process, stimulating collagen synthesis, and improving elastin fibers in the dermis, this light chemical peel revitalizes photodamaged skin and helps reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. The peel is appropriate for serial applications and as a companion treatment for microdermabrasion or IPL.
20% glycolic/ 10% lactic mixture
Mediterranean fruit vinegar

No experience with that exact product, but the concentration is strong enough that it should work quite nicely. I'm not sure what the instructions for use are, but it wouldn't be something I would leave on my face. Anything over 10% (in my personal opinion) would need to be neutralized after a few minutes.
...I'm not a dr. though.  |

I use a professional strength md forte peel gel which is 99% actual percent compound %70
and i leave it on for 3 minutes it is much better than those DIY peels that are selling in various websites
so saying that i would definitely give the skinceuticals a whirl it will probably come with the full instructions as well
good luck  |
