Description
From the comfort of your own home, our simple at-home chemical peel treatment is clinically proven to reveal brighter, even-toned skin while also reducing the appearance of fine lines and pores.
How To Use:
What to Expect
Because of the ingredients used in the Brightening Peel, we strongly recommend that you follow all application steps, including pre- and post-peel. This will help ensure the best results and best skin comfort.
Everyone's skin responds differently:
o You may experience visible flaking or peeling, especially 2-4 days post-treatment. This is normal. DO NOT exfoliate or pull the skin on the treated area. It will come off on its own.
On the other hand, you may not experience any visible skin peeling after the treatment. This is also normal. The product is still working.
You'll see visible results—brighter, silky-soft skin—within 7-14 days of using Brightening Peel.
PREP: HOW TO PREPARE FOR YOUR BRIGHTENING PEEL
You should not use Brightening Peel for at least 2 weeks, and preferably 4 weeks, after using a strong peel or facial treatment to allow your skin to fully recover. Discontinue use of cosmetic products with retinoid/retinol and/or AHAs/BHAs.
For 2 weeks prior to your treatment, apply Daily Dark Spot Intercept (DDSI) followed by Daily Renewal Cream (DRC), and Sunscreen SPF 30 or higher each morning. At night, repeat the application of DDSI and DRC. When outdoors, reapply sunscreen every 2-3 hours.
These steps prime the skin, creating the ideal condition for the treatment and ensuring the best post-peel results.
STEP 1: CLEANSE
Pull hair completely off face. Cleanse skin with Ourself Daily Purifying Cleanser or normal cleanser. Avoid cleansers that contain acids or exfoliants.
STEP 2: PREPARING THE PEEL
Once the skin is clean and dry, open the peel vial by placing thumb on the arrows on the cap and pushing up. This will break the foil safety seal in the center. Carefully remove the crimp seal and stopper.
STEP 3
If the kit purchased has a tray included, place peel vial into perforated hole for stability during application. If no tray is included, proceed to Step 4.
STEP 4: PREPARING THE PEEL
Fold the provided gauze pad into quarters.
Using the dropper, apply 1-2 droppers full of Peel to the gauze evenly distributing the solution from the center of the pad to the edges. Make sure that the gauze is not dripping.
STEP 5: APPLYING THE PEEL
Apply one layer of the Peel solution, using a single passage over skin, working in this order:
Forehead
Lower face (around the mouth, avoiding lips)
Nose area
Cheeks (don't apply above your cheekbone)
Avoid the eye area entirely
STEP 6: APPLYING MULTIPLE LAYERS
Wait 3-5 minutes after the first layer of peel is applied.
Mild stinging/burning sensation is expected. If burning or stinging continues after 5 minutes, stop application.
If there is no lingering burning or stinging after 5 minutes, you may apply up to 2 additional layers.
STEP 7: APPLYING POST-PEEL SKINCARE
After the final layer is applied, wait 15-30 minutes before applying moisturizer to keep the treated area well moisturized.
If using the Ourself Everyday Regimen, apply DDSI and followed by DRC. It is important to use sunscreen in the daytime to protect skin and encourage results.
NOTE: Brightening Peel is self-neutralizing, you do not need to wash it off.
STEP 8: STORAGE
If you have extra solution in the bottle, pop on the extra cap and save for your next peel day. Enjoy your brighter skin for at least 2-4 weeks before you repeat Brightening Peel. Store upright in a cool, dark place, away from pets, children and jostling (it’s best if the opened solution doesn’t spill as it can cause damage to some surfaces; do not travel with bottle after opening). Once opened, Brightening Peel should be used or carefully poured down the drain within 3 months.
DAY 16+
STEP 9: PEEL POST-CARE
Cleanse your face as usual the next day and continue the application of DDSI, DRC am/pm and daily application of sunscreen to maintain optimum results.
Avoid excessive sun exposure, if you must be outside, reapply SPF every 2-3 hours.
Expect to see visible results—brighter, silky-soft skin – within 7-14 days after using Brightening Peel
