Mandelic/Salicylic Peel

My favorite MUAC peel. I've used their mandelic, glycolic (40%), and lactic acid (40%) peels before, but this one is my absolute favorite for its acne-obliterating effects. For background, I have dry, hormonal acne-prone skin and have been using a prescription retinoid on and off for the last few years. The retinoid is wonderful, but every now and then I need some sort of a …Read more

This is a wonderful peel. It is very strong and it burns. I am always very careful to take it off my face after 5-7 min. When initially using it it needs to be removed much faster because this peel has potential to cause chemical burns. It stops pimples right in their tracks every time. It is fantastic. However, since it is so strong and I am not super acne prone, I only use it when my face is …Read more

i love this! i have a very open pores and now after 3 weeks, i noticed some changes.

Over this past summer, I had a terrible breakout. I have always had decent skin up until that point, with a moderate amount of closed comedones and a few zits here and there, so this breakout was quite distressing. Seemingly overnight, I had terribly clogged pores and multiple red, angry zits on the lower part of my left and right cheeks/jaw and on my chin, with a few on my forehead for good …Read more

Holy moly- I can't believe my skin! I have hormonal breakouts once a month and they have totally diminished. But that's just the start- my tone is even, oil production is back to normal ( hence my makeup stays perfect all day) and my ginormous pores are almost gone. Seriously my skin looked like the skin of an orange. Huge pores everywhere and now my face is so smooth! I've only …Read more

You would think, having the driest, most bumpy rosacean face ever that I would hate this but no, I love it! I used it regularly about a year ago and then moved and it got thrown in a box. I just unpacked said box and said what the heck, and tried this peel again. Three days later I was looking in the mirror and wondering why my damn face was so smooth and calm. It's this stuff, I tell …Read more

Ever since I lost a whole bunch of weight and turned twenty, I've had a pesky bout with hormonal acne. My periods started to become a monthly thing and not something that occurred once in a blue moon; the responding acne that arrived with them became something of a surprise that not only I found unwelcome but was not at all trained to control. Nor accustomed to. In other words, it …Read more

This is the strongest peel I own at the moment, and I have nothing bad to say about it! It does make my face peel/flake a littl bit around the 4-5th day, especially around and on my nose.
It does burn a little when I have it on, but I fan my face when I use it, which ake it much easier to bare.
I have been using the product for about 9 months now, and I love it! I would not hesitate …Read more

My skin loves this peel. I have also tried the lactic acid and mandelic acid peels from MUAC, and I liked the results I got from those, but this one has given me the best results. My skin issues are mainly acne breakouts, some acne scarring, and getting a smooth surface. The day after I use this peel I always notice how radiant my skin looks - it doesn't usually look radiant, ever, but this …Read more

This is product experiment #2 on the Makeup Artist's Choice (MUAC) peel. I started out with the 25% Mandelic for my very sensitive, aging, acne-prone skin. I got good results (please see the review for this where I documented each peel session) but was ready for something a little more agressive.

I was hesitant to use this one, but decided to order the same based on the fact …Read more
