12 Best and Worst At-Home Facial Peels
Editor's Rating & Review
This pricey, at-home "peel" sets the bar high by claiming to "solve every skincare concern." Packaging is genius; pre-soaked pads (think Stridex) are nestled in sleek jars marked "Step 1" and "Step 2." But the required two-minute wait between steps sucks the fun out of daily application. While the peel did "improve tone, texture and clarity" enough to make me want to skip makeup, it didn't solve my every concern. Brownie points for being available in air-travel friendly packs.

A Great Peel for Too Much Money!
This Alpha Beta Peel is a great peel that does deliver a more even skin tone, appearance of smaller pores, and left my skin radiant. I love the handy packaging and the ease of use offered by this peel. My only problem is the price. There are other products out there that deliver the same results for a lot less money.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 6 of 8 people said helpful

Love being able to do a peel at home with this!
This is my first peel, but I loved the convenience of doing it at home. I've hear they make your face red so I was a bit nervous, but It just made my face a little pink the next day. I did notice immediate shine after I did it, which I loved because I have really dry skin so my skin never shines. I felt like it did a really good job of brightening up my skin. I will continue to use this!This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 3 of 3 people said helpful

Renewed and Rejuvenated
I felt my skin tighter just after a few days using this face peel system. The peel pads of the Step 1 feel rough and a little bit abrasive. The Step 2 pads are very soft and glide along the face smoothly. From the name, I was kind of expecting stinky pads and to make my face sting. But these pads has a mild scent, and give no irritation to my facial skin. I don't mind the two minute waiting time. ...read moreThese pads make my skin feeling exfoliated and renewed. Well, I've been suffering from adult acne, and no, this system has not stopped me from having new pimples. But I don't think it has caused any breakout either. Unfortunately, my acne spots and sun damage spots look almost the same. I am also not quite sure about wrinkles. Some of fine small wrinkles seem to look less visible, but it could be due to the anti-aging moisturizer that I use? What I notice for sure is that the skin texture. My face is definitely tighter and smoother overall. Amazing! The product is called "Daily" Face Peel, but I use about 3-4 times a week. I changed the usage frequency, not because of the price, but because of the strength of this face peel. I would not recommend this to people with very sensitive skin. True, I agree that this whole system is just too expensive to use every day. I won't probably buy continuously all the time unless I see a big difference on spots and my uneven skin tone. As of today I finished 20 out 30 applications, and I have one more complete set. I will update this review if any of my acne scars or sun damage fade substantially. But wow, it does a great job of making my face firmer and more radiant.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 2 of 2 people said helpful
