Would this Glycolic be safe to use?

[vicky1804]

I used to get a Glycolic facial done at my local salon and love the results. I havnt had a job in the last 6 months so I cant afford to have them done

I was looking around and came across this

Im hoping so but wondered if anyone could let me know?

Thanks

I would be so careful with any acids, why don'y you just use apple cider vinegar, Like Braggs, it's a natural fruit acid, and you can apply it often enough to get almost the same results.

How would I use that ?

Thanks

I would pour some on a cotton pad and apply it that way.

Purchase pure ACV from a decent health food store. A 431 ml bottle of Bragg goes for $4.

Always shake the bottle well as you want to get some of the brown sediment, at the bottom of the bottle.

Dilute the apple cider vinegar first - 1/2 water and 1/2 ACV

Applying directly to skin can cause irritation.

Ok thanks guys, passing a health food place on Monday so will check then

How often could I apply this?

Thanks

If you still want to do a glycolic peel yourself, I strongly suggest makeupartistschoice.com. I have ordered several times from them, and they get great reviews overall. I believe they are one of the best known websites to buy peels from

Absolutely. I even started out with 30% for my first glycolic peel and had no problems, but then again my skin isn´t sensitive
