Ooh Ahh Alpha Beta

Yeah, I did it…I referenced “Revenge of the Nerds” in print.  What brought me to this low state you ask?  Happiness in a bottle I say, happiness in a bottle.

Here’s the deal.  Over the years I’ve battled breakouts, spent time roasting in my beautiful Miami sun (sniff, I miss you), and been in many ways not so kind to my skin.  The result is not terrible skin, but certainly not the perfectly smooth and even toned, porcelain skin I would like.

So what do you do when the scrubs, exfoliating washes, masks and serums aren’t cutting it?  Well, if you have lots of disposable income you can go see the dermatologist for some pricey laser treatments and peels, OR, you can do what I did.  I turned to the bottle: those beautiful amber glass bottles…

Check out this site skin-peel.com.  For about the price of one peel at the dermatologist’s office, I bought a bottle of Salicylic and a bottle of Glycolic, resulting in the Alpha Beta Peel of a life time.  What’s more, there are about 14 applications per bottle AND each bottle came with a peel prep solution as well as a neutralizing solution, (they also threw in some gauze pads for good measure).

The range of peels they have is phenomenal.  They sell every peel I’ve ever heard of and more, in a variety of strengths, as well as post peel skin care. (I can’t endorse the skin care as I’ve not tried it yet.)

Furthermore, their customer service is excellent.  I called once before placing my order to ensure I was purchasing the right products in the right strengths for my skin.  Then called again, after receiving the products, just before my initial application to make sure I had the timing right. Putting acid on my skin is not something I take lightly, nor should you.  I’m happy to say it’s not something they take lightly either.

My end result was a smoother complexion, and truly radiant skin.  Honestly, I am really pleased with this purchase, and will definitely be a return customer.
