Hi there, ladies.
I'm interested in trying a few chemical peels at home, before a big event next month; however, I am clueless as to which would be best for my skin type.
I have confused, sensitive/combo. skin - clear and a tiny bit dry for two weeks, and an oily hormonal breakout for the other two. My main objective through peels is to get rid of some mild sub-surface acne, that is fading too slowly. I do use a vitamin-c scrub and micropolisher a few times a week, and washcloths, but the exfoliation does not appear to be enough.
I am allergic to milk, and salicylic acid, so those are automatically out. This leaves me with:
A) Glycolic acid
B) Pumpkin enzyme and 5% Glycolic.
C) TCA
D) Non-acid Enzyme Peel
Any thoughts or recommendations?
