Absolutely changed my face for the better. I went through two horrible episodes of "adult onset acne" where I cried through painful chemical peels, dermatologist visits and many pills just to control my skin. After both those episodes, I was left with dark purple scarring on my cheeks that even microdermabrasion couldn't get rid of.

I gave these a try once my face had calmed and I was left with my ugly scars the second time around. ABSOLUTE GOD SEND. ALL my friends and family were telling me my face looked GREAT. It was because I wasn't wearing Studio Fix concealer, foundation plus powder just to semi-cover my scars. The scars went from a deep purple to a rosy hue and have continued to fade. I've used these for about a year now and will not skip a night without my pad. I noticed that if I forget to use them for about 2-3 nights, one or two pimples will begin to form again so it really does control my skin while fading my scarring.

I've been lucky that they have worked for me and are so inexpensive compared to the hundreds of dollars I would spend on microdermabrasion. Although I still use foundation everyday, it's Bare Minerals and I don't even need a concealer underneath to cover up the scarring. You can see my recent profile picture that with liquid foundation and powder, you can't even notice my old cheek scarring. Before, my pictures would look like purple clouds were on my cheeks.

I recommend this product to everyone I know suffering from the occasional breakout to bad scarring because with the low amount of acid, it really is safe and inexpensive for daily use.

I don't put anything on after I rub the pad over my face ( I use one pad every night) and actually find that after 30 min, my face feels moisturized and not dried out like all the other acne products I've used before (i.e. proactiv, retin A, etc.)

THANK YOU AVON!

I don't know that I would do without this! I had many scars and this has reduced them. I am so happy! :D Also, it is so cheap! I had doubts that this would work because I have tried so many other products (including the famous Bio Oil) and they didn't work for me. Only Con about this is that it can over dry the skin - so I use it every 2nd day. Love this! I have heaps of back ups of this so that when my relatives need them I can just give them as gifts (not even for any occasion) because some of them have pimples to and I want to share the joy!

I love the Correct & Fade Peel pads!!! I use them every night after washing my face and they get all the extra leftover gunk left in my pores. My face feels fresh and tingly after I use them, and I've recommended them to a few friends who have used them with good results.

The only downside is that they are drying if you use them TOO much (I found this out after using them in the morning and at night, and the skin on my cheeks became dry and irritated). Also, the top can be hard to unscrew if your hands aren't completely dry, but if you run the tip of a butter knife under the rim of the top, it will loosen and you'll be able to unscrew.

Unfortunately, it seems as if Avon has discontinued the product?!?! It disappeared after the lowest price sale a few catalogs back, and now it's in the Outlet catalog. I'm kind of freaking out ~ I'll be so upset if I can't use them! I just ordered 10, so hopefully they're just changing the packaging and will reoffer before I run out!

This great for freshening up and getting the dirt off at the end of the day when I'm not wearing makeup and too tired to cleanse properly, or after my cream cleanser makeup removal as a toner.


I love the light faintly fresh non-irritating scent. Its a very light peel, no irritation nor flaking and the glycerine in it leaves my skin feeling moist and plump after using it, never dry and irritated like when I tried the cheaper Neutrogena brand before. So even though it has only 30 not 60 pads of Neutrogena, if I wanted to buy again I'd only go for the Avon Clearskin ones.


After 2 weeks use I felt it unblocked my pores and my skin looked clearer, although I didn't notice any signs of fading my marks, I showed definite skin improvement.
After 90 days use, however, the pore-unblocking and skin clarity results weren't as definite as before. My old skin condition started creeping back and I suspected my skin was gradually becoming oilier and slightly more red than before. After a bit of research I discovered that this is in common with the use of all the acne type products, they're great for a kick start but not so good for long term condition of skin. So I am going to save these for special use only rather than everyday use from now on.

This did help take away some of the redness on my face but since I've been using it I have been breaking out a lot more. I used to only get zits every now and then but now I have lots of little red bumps on my skin. I have also discontinud using this because the alcohol smell of it is so powerful that it makes my eyes burn and I have to stop breathing when I use it just so I don't have to smell it!

I used this before I discovered the Nuetrogena Stress Free Control Treatment and I loved it. It w s the only thing at the time that helped clear up all my acne and fade away some old acne scars. It evened out my skin tone and made my skin smoother and softer. I had to take off a lippie for this because I think that the price is too high for somthing so little ($5.49 for a tube of 30 pads, I'm a poor college student so I can't afford it anymore) I had to buy new ones every month and it was getting expensive so I stopped. If it was on sale again, I would buy it in a heartbeart.

Age: 19-24   Skin: Very Dry, Dark, Warm   Hair: Black, Wavy   Eyes: Brown    

Been using this for 3 weeks.It's improved the appearance of dark marks on my face and greatly improved my skin's texture. My skin is incredibly smooth, with no more bits of dry/flaky skin. It's affordable and works well PLUS I havent had a reaction to it! (Yay me :)) Will definitley repurchase.
Ingredients: Aqua, denatured alcohol, butylene glycol, glycerin, glycolic acid, salicylic acid, thiodipropionic acid, ammonium hydroxide, disodium EDTA, propylene glycol, trioxaundecanedioic acid, parfum, triticum vulgare germ extract, bambusa vulgaris extract, perilla ocymoides extract.
Ok, 3 months gone now and this is still a great way for me to incorporate aha/bha into my skin care routine without overly stripping my dry skin. Does a fab job with those dry flaky bits.

I have two mauve/purplish scars from three months ago when I had two horrid cystic pimples. I was using a 10% glycolic acid toner and/or 2% salicylic acid pad on them and they stayed the same. Within a week of daily use of these correct and fade peel pads the area had significantly lightened. After two weeks of use, I would say that the areas have lightened by more than 50%.Product has a light scent and contains 1% salicylic acid, glycolic acid, Oxa acid, glycerin and extracts of bamboo, wheat germ and perilla. Pads are small but enough to do your face. I purchased the container of 30 pads on sale for $3.49. Paraben free.

I like the scent, its soothing and one pad moist is enough to cover the entire face. I have not seen any immediate lightening of my marks, and I use this every other day. I use this instead of a toner. this price is very low for a good product that doesnt burn I got it on sale for $3.19.

I just started using this, and will update later. Otherwise it feels good on my skin and is somewhat helping my acne.
