Tis' the season to peel
When you think about getting a “peel,” you might immediately imagine a painful or harsh chemical treatment gone awry. We’ve all seen the movies of a “peel” gone wrong. Someone who was hardly in need of a peel was coaxed into it because of an upcoming date or other important event, walks into the salon looking fine, and leaves with a burnt, sensitive and alarming complexion. Best to file that into the “never do unless absolutely desperate” pile.
Fortunately, the “chemical peel” is going the way of the flip phone and Myspace. Today, the peels to take note of and that actually create a ton of good without the awful side effects are more holistic and natural.
One such peel is the Vitamin A Peel that we offer at Beauty Journey.
