Perfect Image Salicylic Acid Deep Exfoliating Gel Based Cleanser, Professionally Formulated Salicylic Acid Peel Peel Prep Cleanser, Enhanced with Tea Tree Oil and Green Tea Extract

I had been using this product for a while, but when I ran out I decided to try other products. I have to say that I noticed the difference right away. My skin tone is more even, and my pores are seamless My oily areas around my nose started getting noticeably visible, which was not happening when I used this product.You only need a little with a soft scrub concentrating on your chin, lips and nose to clean oily deposits. It rinses clean and your face will be soft and glowing. You will see a difference too!

Pre-Peel Salicylic Deep Gel Exfoliating Cleanser - Enhanced with Tea Tree Oil & Green Tea Extract (Professional)First purchased this cleanser in Feb. 2013; I just ordered my second bottle (just as the first is about to run out). This product is excellent. It has undoubtedly enhanced my skin care products and the balance, texture and look of my (now) clear skin. A tiny amount is all that you need. How I use it: Usually, during my morning shower, I blot my wet face with a towel and apply it to barely damp skin - to maximize the effect and longevity of the product - I also leave it on for a minute or so. In the first day(s) of use, the skin may react to the power of this product, by sensation or with a minimal dry patch (so protect against the onset of discoloration with sunscreen if this happens) [Also, always be mindful of how or if you [over] apply around the delicate under eye area]. These comments are not at all to alarm you, only to express my experience. That being said, regular 1x daily use, of a pinky-fingernail-size-amount is all I use. You can visibly see a difference after use - skin is tight and there is a glow to it, really. I will likely buy this time and time again. My use rate is at ~ 4 months per bottle. It is something special in my limited regimen of skin products. If interested, my daily skin regimen consists of this product, the Rodan Fields anti-age/redefine or reverse line + sun block and topical pure hyaluronic acid [via amazon through Timeless Skin Care]. After 10 months of a commitment to use the Rodan Fields line 2x daily,Hyaluronic Acid Serum 100% Pure Refill 8 oz combined with 3-6 months using this product and the regular use of the topical pure hyaluronic acid, my skin is pretty much perfect, now, really! These products do not cause me to have blemishes, uneven or imbalanced skin; just the opposite. [This comes after a lifetime of living in So. Cal. and years and years of struggling with blemishes, hyperpigmentation and uneven skin]. {I came upon this cleanser as an initial step for the Pineapple Pumpkin Enzyme Skin Peel- Enhanced with Papaya Extract & AHA [from Perfect Image], which I use rarely; The cleanser is recommended by perfect image for their pre-peel regimen.} However, I love to use it daily. I hope that this helps someone who is looking to make their skin balanced, clear, tightened, admirable and youthful. PEACE!

I've only been using it for about a week now but I must say, I really love how smooth my skin is getting. Right now, I'm following the directions for the 5-7 days of use to prep for my at home peel, which will be tomorrow. My skin is no stranger to chemical peels. I usually go to an anesthetist to get mine done professionally but I'm currently going to an accelerated nursing school which doesn't allot enough time for me to stay home for the healing process. So, this is a great product to manage my skin in between treatments. My skin clogs easily so, I needed something to facilitate removal of the all the dead skin keeping the bacteria inside the pores to wreak havoc.It's too early to tell but so far, I have had no bad reaction to it. And I have sensitive skin. No new pimples have emerged. Prior to using, I had hormonal pimples around my chin and also had a weird reaction to something which caused tiny pimples around my cheeks and forehead. Made me have sandpaper-like skin which clear from afar but looked very rough in the sunlight and up close. I feel like this product helped smooth it out by sloughing off all the skin keeping those little buggers in and also flattened out those hormonal pimples. My face looks a lot brighter too.My only quarrel with this product is that, it doesn't lather as much as I want it to so I wash my face with a simple face wash for sensitive skin before using this product. Salicylic acid penetrates better anyway when there is less oil on the face so in my opinion, I feel it would be fore effective to wash before using it. I know what you're thinking. Cleanse your face before you cleanse your face?? That's crazy talk! It gives it that clean feeling. And of course, moisturize after!! I usually use this product once daily at night and use a moisturizing serum afterwards. I also use the St. Ives face scrub in the mornings to scrub off the dead skin that the salicylic acid dried out... But I scrub ever so gently! Don't want to anger the face.I'll update when I get the chance but, so far so good. Keep in mind though! My skin is used to products like this so, results might vary for other people and might be harsh if you haven't used strong salicylic acid products before.
