AlottaReviews review for Calendula PHA Hyaluronic Peeling Gel

Aprilskin Calendula PHA Hyaluronic Peeling Gel ($23) is a gentle exfoliation. The vegan formula contains an enzyme (papain) that digests dead skin cells and *rolls* them away. Rich in antioxidants, Calendula flora sheds dullness & calms irritated skin. Hyaluronic Acids leave the skin moisturized and calm after the exfoliation. 🏵WHAT TO EXPECT: Exfoliation of dry patchy skin. Reducing the signs of wrinkles/aging Moisturization Boosting collagen Soothe sensitive skin Diminishing dark spots. Shrinks pores & keeps acne at bay. Brighten & tone the skin. Enable skin's self-repair. 🏵Key ingredients: Calendula (Soothes, heals & protects) Papain + 0.3% PHA (Sheds dead skin) Glycerin Squalane Rosa Canina (Rosehip) Oil Matricaria Recutita (German Chamomile) Flower Extract Propanediol Hyaluronic Acid Sodium Hyaluronate Sodium Hyaluronate Crosspolymer 🏵My Experience: I did two patches tests, one on my skin & the other on a plastic surface. On my skin it rolled little bits of what I assume was dead skin away and on the plastic--nothing happened. It's safe to say this is the real deal. I do tend to fall into the *orange peel* category for skin texture. Some days better than others but this peel has been god-sent. When I use this before and after makeup, my skin feels so soft. My makeup glides on & I honestly haven't reached for foundation in such a long time thanks to this stuff. ✅What I loved? Hands down, has to be the "rolling away of dead skin" feature with this peel. You can really see it coming off, it's weirdly satisfying. Another thing I love, if you aren't someone who likes the "glowy" look of skincare--rest assured this stuff gives a very subtle glow. Nothing too flashy, which makes this a universal all-for-one product. And lastly, the scent is amazing! The texture & consistency is thick & luxurious! Definitely a wonderful peel.
