Снежанна, 24 года, г. Нижний Новгород:
"Once I got information on the Internet about the so-called" Hollywood peeling ", i.e., peeling with the use of calcium chloride. My problem skin with enlarged pores has long required radical measures, so I decided on this inexpensive and effective procedure. Of course, I do not recommend this procedure to owners of dry and sensitive skin, but I myself was satisfied. The skin really acquired an even color. Even the pigmentation has decreased! I recommend!".
Anna, 34, Krasnoyarsk:
"I want to share my bitter experience from peeling home. I used for this purpose hydrogen peroxide and a bodyfat. It seems that the components are harmless, and the procedure is simple, but I did not calculate toli over time, I did not take into account the condition of the skin, but the result was simply awful! Literally after the second procedure the face became red and rough, it was terribly burning and hurting. I had to take a few days at my own expense, because it was simply impossible to go out with such a terrible face. "
Ekaterina, 27, Orenburg:
"I do house peeling regularly, at least once every two weeks, but usually once a week. On the advice of a cosmetologist I use for this purpose fruit acid. Of course, from the surface peeling the effect lasts not for long, but in the first day after the procedure the skin just shines! ".
And I bought already ready chemical peeling in a vial, ordered through the Internet. Brand is good, proven. After the first application did not understand anything, decided to leave for a longer time. The result is skin irritation and flaking. Since then, only according to the instructions, but still the result I was not particularly impressed.
About "Hollywood peeling" is also heard, a lot of laudatory reviews. I want to try everything, but I'm not going to. In summer, peeling simply can not be done, and in winter the skin is dry without it. I'll take a risk on the New Year holidays, when it will be possible to not leave the house at least for a couple of days, and then how little will the result be.
