The directions say to rinse off after 20 minutes. I have used it w/o doing so as I went to bed to sleep and I was fine. My friend said she use it and this product burned or stung her skin. I guess it depends on your skin sensitivity. I would say you should follow the directions on the label to be safe.

Definitely wash it off. I wouldn't even do it after 8 minutes. I would start with 1 minute and do it gradually more every time you try to get your skin used to it.

Use GooGone or acetone. Let it soak in for a few minutes and it rubs right off.

I used a small piece of gauze just folded a couple of times it tend to soak some in so as you apply to pad brush on to skin staying away from eyes ans mouth just a light coat on the face starting out it will sting and burn but that is natural means it is working say 15 minutes and wash off with baking soda that nautilizes the acid may not peel the first day but it will start peeling, I wait a day or so befroe another application

Thank you...was having a mini meltdown. Sadly I didn't think I'd have this reaction and didn't plan for this appearance. I did a 30% glycolic peel a few weeks ago and there was no one minute of downtime. It just made me glow. Do you think it's better to let it get very dry so it will maybe peel faster or reapply my moisturizer to keep it hydrated? I look so crazy and have to work on Rodeo Dr. tomorrow. :(

Mix it with a facial cleanser. That's how I use it. I wet my face first then mix the crystals with a liquid face soap then rub on my face. You only need a pinch of the crystals for one application. It lasts a long time.

You should stop for a few days before using this product, then resume again a week to 10 days after the peel has been done. Thank you!

Lol I have posted my whole skin care regimen which includes using this product along with others I purchased from Amazon, which totally helped me to clear moderately severe acne that I had been suffering from for over 10 years. Anyway, I guess it was too long to post or Amazon didn't like that, but to answer your question, I start with a clean and dried face before using this product and peel off after. You may rinse off any residue that's left after you peel it off.

Hi there, I used this product and initially it seemed ok but to be honest, I have purchased this so many times from other places over the years but this particular one has ruined my skin...which has never happened before. This batch made my skin very itchy and dry and the peeling hasn't happened as it usually does. Maybe it was the batch that I purchased...not sure really.

Areas of the body peel at different rates... Its normal for a TCA peel to take up to 2 weeks. Youre fine as long as you dont see puss or experiencing pain. Keep it moisturized with something thick like aquaphor but make sure your not agitating it. Please do not scrub it prematurely. That will do more bad than good and potentially cause hypo/hyper pigmentation. Let it heal and slough off on its own. Hope this helps. <3

Apply to a clean and dry face and neck, leave on about 15 minutes, then removes with a warm wet wash cloth and I apply the vitamin C and E hydrating serum and then the face cream. Hope that helps!

I make sure my face is very CLEAN,, I use alcohol to get rid of any traces of oil. I use a very good moisturizer after the procedure. I also use a glycolic acid skin peel, I can put anything on my face, so if you want to try that also, you may want to start with a low % acid, then use a good moisturizer, cheaper than the lunch time peel..

It is a strong peel, I recommend that you do half peel and half water. I use 1 tablespoon of peel and 1 table spoon of water and dilute it, then apply it with my finger tips to my face and I use the left over on my knees and elbows :-). My skin is very sensitive so I leave it on for 3 minutes then neutralize with baking soda. I hope this helps.

There is no down time; however it's important that you don't leave it on longer than the recommended 3 minutes. I use water and baking soda to neutralize the peel first (splash it on my face for a minute or so) and then I rinse with plain water. I apply it with pieces of guaze. Good luck!

Rubbing Alcohol just helps get the acid to the pores.. I've done with and without.. Just apply the acid (using a brush is best bc cotton swabs waste a lot of product) and wait between 1-10 mins. Do this 1-2 times per week. If the acid is getting really intense on your face, turn the blow dryer on low cool and blow on your face. When you are done, wash your face with warm water and baking soda helps to stop the stinging immediately. Hope this helps.

After the microdermabrasion, make a facial with bentonite clay & braggs apple cider vineger. You can order them both on Amazon. This method will take 5 years off of your face the first time u use it!
