What Is The Difference Between Physical And Chemical Exfoliation?

There are two types of exfoliants – physical and chemical. The Body Peel is a 12% chemical exfoliant for the body. The formula features 10% AHA 1% BHA and 1% PHA. With continued use The Body Peel helps treat and prevent KP, ingrown hairs, and rough, textured skin patches for softer and smoother-looking skin.

Answer

Why Is pH Level Mentioned On The Package?

During the formulation process we optimize the pH of the formula. We believe it directly impacts the safety and efficacy of the formula. The pH objective will vary based on product purpose. On the secondary packaging (carton) we provide a pH range. The reason pH range is indicated is that pH may vary during the manufacturing process and/or slightly change over time. Formulas that do not contain enough water will not have a pH listed.

    Body Peel

    Unlike many products it does what it claims to do, fades the skin which clears the freckles and helps ageing skin

    Combined with the exfoliator and Hinoki wash, my KP is vastly improved!

    I read about the Body Exfoliator a few months ago on Buzzfeed and decided to give it a try. Because the KP on my upper arms was getting worse no matter what I tried, and it started popping up on the outside of my thighs, to boot.

    While the exfoliator alone worked well on my thighs, I was having a tougher time with the more deeply established zones on my upper arms. I am currently working through a more aggressive daily treatment on my arms of exfoliating mitt + Exfoliator + Wash + Body Peel + Moisturizer, and this has left my KP deeply improved and even starting to clear in a few small patches.

    Note you do not have to slather on these products - a little goes a long way. Like the Body Serum, it can be a little sticky, so you're best off using it sparingly and rubbing it in before applying moisturizer. But right now, every few days my exfoliation mitt is coming up covered in dead skin and I can see and feel the change in my KP afterwards. It may take a little bit of dedicated work if you have stubborn zones, but if the Exfoliator alone isn't working, add this in and you should see a really positive change!

    So yeah, you may think, "is it worth it?" Maybe in my 20's and 30's, I would have reverted to something slightly less expensive. But my middle-aged skin is loving these products and is happily incorporating them into my skincare routine!

    Eases razor bumps and vitiligo

    Helped make my vitiligo less noticeable and razor bumps immediately. Use sparingly as not much is needed.

    Smoothed uneven skin upper back

    It received this as a sample and now going to take advantage of the sale. The stickiness was a little noticeable however, it works so I really don’t mind it at all.
