Red Peel Tingle Serum
This is my first time trying out a skincare product from the brand So Natural, so I did not have any expectations to compare this product with. For reference, I have sensitive skin that can sometimes feel dehydrated as well.
I was really worried to try out this product because I have really sensitive skin and strong peeling products tend to be too harsh for me. Unfortunately, it was really the case here.
This is a deep blood red serum that is meant to be used only for a very short period of time (under 60 seconds) on your skin. Following that it needs to be washed off completely due to the high concentration of AHA chemical exfoliants (Glycolic Acid, Lactic Acid).
I used this for around 30 seconds and immediately washed it off completely. It does cause a slight stinging sensation upon application, but nothing unbearable. However I imagine it might sting more if you have a broken skin barrier.
After washing, I notice that my skin looks irritated and red. Just a few hours after, small red bumps and texture start to form around my face. I woke up the next morning with loads of unwanted texture as my skin looks like it was breaking out for the next few days.
I would suggest to use this with caution, or just avoid this completely if you have sensitive skin. It would better suit acne-prone resilient skin people to see some positive results from this.
Disclaimer, my skin just hates any product with Glycolic Acid and this was no exception. I did not use this product again after the first use, because my skin just doesn’t tolerate Glycolic Acid even over time.
