SALICYLIC PEELING PROCESS
Salicylic 30% peel - moderate downtime. Typically the skin will peel mild to moderately on day 4 or 5 and last about 4-7 days. The skin may turn red during application and can be red or pink a few hours/ days following the peel. You may experience frosting with this peel that may result in darkened areas on the face which will peel off and fade. You can resume to normal exfoliation after one week.
Salicylic 20% peel - mild to moderate downtime. Typically you will see some light to medium peeling and some areas of the skin may frost ( turning a white / off-white color) during application. It is common for frosted areas to darken before peeling off. The peeling typically starts on day 4 or 5. You can resume to normal exfoliation after one week.
Salicylic 10% peel - mild little to no downtime. During the application you may experience slight redness and burning but will subside after application. You may see some light peeling/flaking starting on day 4 or 5 and can last approximately 4-7 days.
There are no U.S. laws or regulations that require cosmetics to have specific shelf lives or have expiration dates on their labels, but there is a time frame for when they should be used after opening. We recommend using the product 90 days after opening maximum. Unopened and kept in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, some products can last up to 2 years. While using older products may not cause an adverse reaction, the product may have lost some potency and may not be as effective as a newer, fresher product.
