If a dull, dehydrated lack lustre skin is your concern you'll understand my little jump-for-joy moment when Dermalogica Rapid Reveal Peel dropped; whether you're wanting to enhance your professional skin treatments or a hectic lifestyle doesn't allow time for professional peels, the at-home Dermalogica Rapid Reveal Peel is for you:
Cell turnover is the process of our skin producing new skin cells that travel from the lower part of the epidermis to the top layer and then shed off the skin. As we age, the cell renewal process slows down considerably resulting in a longer recovery time.
How can peels help?
'Peels remove all that dry, dull debris and reveal the softer, smoother skin underneath', says Charmaine Cooper, Education Manager for Dermalogica and The International Dermal Institute. 'In as few as three treatments, peels can reduce the look of wrinkles and fine lines, smooth skin texture and even reduce the appearance of breakouts".
What's the difference between an at-home peel vs Professional peels?
Home-peels are self-applied with the concentration of the peel being much less than than that of a professional peel done by a trained therapist or medical practitioner. Because of a higher content of active ingredients in the latter, redness and peeling could occur.
Dermalogica Rapid Reveal Peel is the highest strength exfoliators in the Dermalogica retail line and is super effective with no redness or peeling occuring. A complex of phytoactive Alpha Hydroxy Acids (Lactic and Salicylic acids) helps reveal firmer skin and reduces fine lines and wrinkles. Fermented plant enzymes evens skin tone and accelerates cell turnover, while Australian Caviar Lime Extract smoothes and brightens for a more radiant complexion.I have been going to dermatologist Dr Dilshaad Asmal at Rondebosch Aesthetics for regular peels and DermaPen, but find this at-home peel a great in-betweener for an extra boost of cell turnover; recommended to use at night in your beauty routine.
In three quick steps here's how to use Dermalogica Rapid Reveal Peel: 1. Twist open the applicator and dispense into your hands
2. Lightly massage over your face and neck in a circular motion. Wait 3-7 minutes for it to activate (a slight tingling may occur)
3. Rinse off thoroughly with cold water
For an optional Kick-Start Phase you can up the use of a tube every three days. After the third day use one tube once a week.
