Ah thanks that makes sense. Really lied this by the way, I have sensitive skin and it didn't irritate it at all. My skin feels so soft and smooth today and looks really even.

I'm dead jealous you've all managed to get hold of this wonder product. It's been out of stock in my local SD for 2-3 weeks.

The power of DS!

I bought this a few months back, have even commented in this thread about it but yet to use! I have sensitive skin so I have deferred usage until I am off at Xmas in case I react. Heartened by those who have posted who have sensitive skin, I am looking forward to using it.

I got one from Boots which you leave on for 10 minutes. I found my skin really smooth and soft afterwards. It has a neutraliser and calming balm in the box.

What brand was that?

Hmm, not overly impressed. I've gone back to my Kiehl's Over-Night Biological Peel

Thanks. I haven't tried the Superdrug one yet. It was quite cheap but still costs money so I will use it to see if it's any good. I'll check out the Kiehl's one in a couple of months time as you should leave off the Boots one for a month after using for four weeks.

Finally got around to trying this, so wanted it to be HG for me but alas not to be. My skin is too sensitive. Only used once, skin on cheekbones is sore and blotchy and chin is a bit red! I will have to treat my skin with kid gloves over the next few weeks to make up for it. Shame!

I have concluded that I can only improve my skin from within by eating well and supplements. My skin does not like transformative skincare, just the basics.

Wow! My skin is pretty sensitive and I had no issues, are you sure you're not allergic to something common to skincare products or something?

Don't know! All I know is that I always get two sore spots on my cheekbones and a red chin if something is too strong for my skin. It was okay when it was on (overnight) but when I washed it off and then used my usual moistutriser then the familiar red came back. I have had very stable skin for a while because I have stuck to products I knew were safe for me so it is def the peel. Shame! Might put it on the backs of my hands overnight to use it up!

I'm not longer enamoured of this product. After the initial impact it seems to no longer make a difference. The under skin bumps are back, and there's been no other change to routine.

Mine is still red and sore! Had to buy some Avene cream for the princely sum of £13 to try and sort it out! 2015 resolution is to leave well alone in the future!

You've probably made your mind up about this now but if you ever were tempted by an acid product again, don't leave it on overnight. Perhaps an hour or so then remove it; or you could use acid toner which is a very gentle way to use acids.

I am the reverse, I use a lot of acid so I don't think this product would be strong enough for me.

I won't be tempted to use again and from past experience I know I will be using very gentle products over the next few months! So no more acids for moi!
