Skin Care Review: Patricia Wexler glyco peel

by amy

Rating
Adverse Effects

Benefits
made my skin feel smoother at first.

Drawbacks
made me break out and made my skin oily and flaky.

Details
when i first received this product i was very excited to start using it, as i have very problematic skin and am always searching for some kind of "miracle product" or at least something to improve my complexion, even a little. im in my early 20s and have had acne since i started college, but im also trying to get an early start on anti-aging skincare so i felt like this glyco-peel would be the perfect solution. I applied it the first night i got it and the next morning before my regular moisturizer and makeup. That day i felt like i noticed that my skin looked smoother, but also could see that my face got very oily very fast and remained that way all day. Over the next few days, i began to find small clusters of tiny bumps around my mouth and nose. i believe these were zits caused by the product. At the same time i was beginning to have dry patches in the same area. So basically my complexion was a disaster--oily, broken out, and rough and flaky. it took at least a week to detox from that and ive tried to use it since then with the same results.

Conclusions
if you are acne prone, i do not recommend this product.
