Hi All,

I was wondering  ??? if anyone has tried this product. I'm OSPW (border OSPT) and a friend has been raving about this face peel & how it cleared up her skin, although I'm not sure if we are the same type.  I have just started this recommended (by the book) regime and don't really want to put something on my face blindly, I'm having enough trouble with the peeling / redness at the moment :-

Cath,
I bought that product about a year ago from Nordstrom and started using it and broke out something fierce!! I tried to take it back and the sales girl told me my skin was just purging and that I needed to stick with it. So I kept using it and my skin just kept getting worse! I finally took it back after about 8 days and said FORGET IT! Not worth it. Maybe my skin is just really weird but I'm an OSPW too. Take it for what it's worth. But it scared me so bad I said I would never use anything from that skin line again. (Thank heaven Dr. Baumann doesn't recommend anything from that skin line for OSNWs) You can try it and always return it.
My opinion is stick to what Dr. B recommends.

I'm another OSPW/OSNW who tried this product a good while back and did not like it for the same reasons. I couldn't use any of the MD Skincare products because I had problems with every one I tried.

Thank you so much ... your comments have just saved me Aus$180 and a lot of pain & suffering. Thanks for reminding me to stay on track too. I tend to get carried away with product descriptions and side-step all the good information I've learned.

This forum is so invaluable.

I've used it with resistant skin and found it rather strong. I wouldn't try this with sensitive skin. There are other products that are even better. Alpha Hydrox Souffle 12% glycolic acid is an extremely decent product.
