40% Glycolic Acid Peel for Acne Scars Age Spots & Lines
Are you tired of your skin looking, well, tired?
Is all of the sun damage you inflicted in your youth showing on your skin now in the form of age spots and fine lines?
Would you like to safely take years off the look of your skin in the comfort of your own home, while saving hundreds over having it done professionally?
If you answered yes to any (or all) of those questions, you have come to the right place. We carry a full line of professional quality skin care products to help all of your skin care concerns.
Glycolic Acid has long been a first line product of the finest spas and Dermatology offices for improving the skin. For those of you who have heard the term "Lunch Time Peel", this is the chemical used for it, and it is used by many if not most of Holywood’s most famous faces (women AND men!) and the Rodeo Drive clientele who can afford the best that money can buy. These peels will cost from $75.00 - $500.00 PER PEEL at your Dermatologist’s office or your local high end spa. Now you can do these peels at home safely and with fantastic results.
Each bottle of our 40% Glycolic Acid Peel will yield approximately 10 peels done at 1 month intervals, a potential savings of $733.00-$5000.00!. After peeling your skin will be feel softer, look smoother, with improved texture and tone and reduced hyperpigmentation (sun damage). Those are the differences on the surface of your skin. With collagen stimulation under the skin, fine lines and scars are smoothed out. With a peel of this strength, a full course of peels (8-10 peels) are needed to see optimal results.
This light peel helps with the following skin conditions:
Fine Lines
Acne
Sun damage
Blackheads
Improves skin Tone
Improves skin Texture
Rosacea
Milia
Age Spots
Shallow Acne Scaring
Enhanced penetration of topical skin care products (moisturizers, serums etc.)
This is a 30ml (1fl oz) bottle of 40% Glycolic peeling solution, medical quality, pH 1 in amber glass to preserve the activity of the product. Along with the peel you will receive a detailed instruction manual and a free sample of our best selling Microdermabrasion Crystals. This is enough peel solution for aproximately 10 full face peels.
Chemical peels are versatile tools that are used to resurface the upper layers of your skin by loosening the bonds between the dead skin cells that dull your skin, while stimulating the collagen beneath the skin to form and align, which in turn plumps up the fine lines and scars from below the surface. They have been around since Cleopatra bathed in milk (contains lactic acid!) to make her skin smooth. Fortunately, science has made a lot of progress since then and the chemical peels available now are sophisticated and effective. Peels vary in strength and provide different benefits.
The very light peels are the low concentration Glycolic peels: 10%, 20% and 30% and flash peels like 85% Lactic Acid. These lunch time peels have no down time and help provide a fresher brighter complexion, but will do little to help with lines and more significant sun damage. They are excellent for maintaining results from deeper peels.
The next group of peels are the light peels which include the 40% and 50% Glycolic peels, 12% and 15% TCA and 30% Alpha Beta Peels. These peels provide more substantial results than the light peels by removing more sun damage, and over time will help smooth very superficial lines. These peels have light peeling and flaking, not usually enough to avoid social situations.
Now we move up to the Medium peels, and this is where the results really start to show. Jessner's, 20% and 25% TCA peels and 50% Alpha Beta peels are all light/medium to medium peels, depending on how many layers are used and the time left on the skin. These peels can have heavy peeling, crusting and take between 1 to 2 weeks to completely finish the peeling process. These are our most popular peels because they make the most difference, helping to smooth lines, plump up skin, strip off sun damage and reveal smooth even skin.
Medium/deep peels are the combination peels of 20-25% TCA + Jessners or 50% Glycolic + TCA and take a full 2 weeks to heal from. Skin must be taken care of very gently and carefully, but these peels are fantastic for very damaged skin. These types of peels are best left to practiced peelers or professionals.
The deep peels such as the Phenol peel require close monitoring on a cardiac moniter by physicians and removes all pigment from the skin. Healing time can be a month or more. A very serious peel for last resort problems, only for Dermatologists, never a home peel.
Glycolic Acid is a naturally occurring chemical belonging to the Alpha Hydroxy Acid (AHA) family. Derived from sugar cane, this important AHA is the smallest of the fruit acids and is able to penetrate the skin, allowing it to effectively dissolve the "glue" that holds dead cells on the surface of the skin. The dead skin cells are what cause a dull, uneven skin tone, and the blocking of pores leading to blackheads and acne. This dissolving action of the Glycolic Acid allows the dead cells to slough off, leaving behind a smoother skin surface with clear pores. This also helps stimulate collagen formation under the skins surface which helps plump up the skin from beneath, smoothing out fine surface wrinkles and superficial scars. Our 40% Glycolic Peel is a mild glycolic acid peel and is suitable for all skin types and both begining and experienced peelers. There may be some redness right after the peel, but generally there is not much if any actual peeling (hence the name Lunch Time Peel, you can go right back to work after you have it done). Please see our other auctions or our eBay store, The Original Skin Store, for different concentrations of glycolic acid, other types of peels and products to enhance your skin. The 40% Glycolic peel is very safe when used as directed, but is a strong, professional strength peel (pH 1) and should be used only as directed. As with all products, a patch test is recommended to see how your skin reacts to the peel.
This peel is very easy to use, you simply cleanse, apply, time it, neutralize and rinse. We include very clear instructions on how to use this peel After you have applied the peel, your skin may be red, this is normal and will fade quickly. You may wear makeup to tone in down if you would like. About 2 days after the peel your skin may start to flake and peel slightly. You can encourage peeling by using warm compresses and taking hot showers, but you cannot pick at the skin! It must come off when it is ready to, not when you are ready for it to! By peeling off the skin you risk scaring by exposing skin that is not ready for the world yet, so allow the skin to shed on its own. As with all exfoliating products, the use of sunscreen is essential to obtaining the results you are looking for. If you are not able to commit to using a sunscreen, this is not the treatment you should choose as you will just damage your skin all over again!

To checkout, simply bid/Buy it now for as many items as you would like, when all auctions have ended go to your My Ebay and click Pay Now for that purchase. You will be directed to our secure payment system where you will be presented with an combined invoice that will reflect free or combined (international) shipping. There may be a few extra steps to our checkout, but it is part of what allows us to provide you fast and accurate order processing, along with flexible payment choices and are sure you will agree that it is worth the extra steps when your package shows up in a timely manner.
The most important step is to get us the correct shipping address when you check out. Please double check that you have correctly entered your ship to address. I spend hours each day answering questions for our customers and even if you email me 5 seconds after you hit the submit button and realize you put in the wrong address, our shipping department will see the completed order long before I will see your email asking me to correct it, and your package will be shipped to the address you put in. We will now require that the package be returned to us before we re-ship to your correct address. We will not re-ship if it is not returned to us, you will need to recover the package from wherever you had us send it. We are no longer willing to eat the costs of these kinds of errors. We understand that they happen, but we are not the ones liable in the event it does. Previously we shipped another product right out, but after several cases where the people at the wrong address just kept the product instead of returning it, we will not take that chance any more.
For all of our customers: All items will be shipped within 1 business day of receipt of payment (Mon-Fri). We use Delivery Confirmation so we can verify delivery, we do not provide tracking on your package. We will provide the DC number (sometimes it helps, sometimes it does not)to you if 10 days have passed and your package has not arrived. Any requests for the DC number before that time will not receive a response. Delivery confirmation is just that, confirmation by the Post Office that the package has been delivered and it cannot be used as a tracking service other than an end point verification. If the USPS shows the item we shipped scanned into the system, there will be a 30 day waiting period before we declare the package lost and refund. We have been having increasing problems with delayed shipping with the USPS (budget cuts I guess!), but once we have put the package in the mail and the DC shows the packages was received by the PO, the time for shipping is out of our hands. We will not refund a package before the 30 day mark, but will hope that the Post Office will eventually do the job we paid them to do and deliver your package.
Regarding customs forms for our international customers: Your customs forms will be marked appropriately for what the package contains. We will not break the law and appreciate your understanding. International customers are responsible for any Tarrifs and Duty charges your country imposes on the package. Recently there has been a very large increase in customs charges on packages to the UK, please be aware they will not finish delivery of the package to you until the Royal Mail has collected the VAT and the hefty fee they charge. As awful as I think this is, it is not my doing and is the customers responsiblity to pay.
We offer a 30 day money back guarantee on all of our products. If it does not meet your expectations, please contact us by email for information on how to return the item to receive a refund for your purchase (less shipping charges). Your satisfaction is our main priority here at The Original Skin Store.

We really do want you to be satisfied with your purchase, and will work with you to accomplish that end. We are always available to help, and would greatly appreciate the opportunity to assist you. We strive for excellent customer service, and want to treat our customers as the valuable people they are. As a side note, please remember that Ebay awards sellers discounts based on their DSR ratings. Discounts that sellers are happy to pass on to customers in the form of lower prices and sales. Ebay considers anything less than a 5 to be unacceptable (despite what it says for the 4 star ratings, sellers are punished for 4's.). We also consider any service that you feel is less than deserving of a 5 in every category as unacceptable and are committed to giving you the kind of service that will make you happy to click all those 5's for us! So please let us know and we will do what we can to fix any problems that may come up
