During the Thanksgiving Holiday my sister and I decided to test out a couple samples I received from Sephora. Its Ole Henriksen's Micro/Mini Peel System. This 3 step system includes:
1. Almond Polish: an at-home microdermabrasion system which uses oat kernel flour, bamboo stem powder, honey, orange peel, and almond to abrade the skin, removing the dead skin cells from the outermost layer of the epidermis, and allowing the next products to penetrate the skin up to 50% more deeply
2. Lemon Strip: a gentle yet effective at-home acid peel system including alpha-hydroxy acids, lactic and glycolic acid combined with orange and lemon extracts and aspartic acid (helps prevent hyper pigmentation). Acid peels are effective at erasing fine lines, reducing acne scars and pigmentation from melasma, while also firming and smoothing skin.
3. Chamomile Comfort which includes bisabolol, borage seed, evening primrose oils, chamomile, and azulene, will help sooth skin after the more active treatments.

Me and my sister before we begin the peel! (shes so excited!)
Step 1: Applying the Almond Polish! The texture is very grainy. We definitely felt our skin was much smoother after this step! Then we rinsed it off after a few minutes.
Step 2: Applying the Lemon Strip. It had a very soft slick texture to it. It felt nice to rub on our skin after the scrub. We waited a few minutes before applying the Chamomile Comfort. (Remember..do not rinse this off before step 3!)
Step 3: We then applied the Chamomile Comfort which was pasty and dried up very fast so its best to do this one quickly. We left the mixture on for 30 minutes before rinse.
And there you have it. Our skin looks vibrant and feels very soft and smooth. For best results, use once every 1-2 weeks and don't forget to wear lots of sunscreen! I love Ole Henriksen!
Now she's happy!
