The Ole Henriksen Micro/Mini Peel System is one of the best home facial peel kits out there. It leaves your skin feeling really smooth and has lots of natural ingredients, so it’s not harsh. Here’s a little tip – don’t use the measuring spoon and the kit will last longer!
To be honest – I have only used this once – but here’s my experience.
The almond polish was a little bit rough on my skin – it stung & left my skin quite red (and I don’t usually have sensitive skin). The lemon peel felt very nice and cooling after the scrub – went on easily & had a pleasant smell. Finally, the mask which is supposed to comfort the skin – was again very stingy and irritating for the first 10 or so mins – but then I think I got used to it and I didn’t notice anymore.
Overall, after using it – my skin felt very soft and supple – but was very red. The next morning – the redness had settled out & my skin doesn’t seem to look very different – but it still feels very soft & smooth to touch. I’m sure with more treatments I’ll notice a visible difference.
I agree with the earlier post – don’t use the measuring spoon – you end up taking way more product than you actually need that way. Also, I would suggest you do this at night or something when you’re not planning on going out – because it left my skin very red and irritated.
