First topic message reminder :

Ok. I received my lactic acid about a week ago from lotioncrafters. It came in 2 days!! Quick shipping! Anyway, I'm still watining for my mequinol and Retin A.
I applied the lactic acid last night. My skin is really resistant so I did a test with pure lactic acid and I didn't feel a thing. So, I put it on my face and neck with a wet towel. 88%. It tingled very little. It seemed a bit oily and when it dried, it felt kind of rubbery. The next day the right side of my face started peeling alot. No peeling on the left. But I had already significantly lightened from Makari and Nadinola, I didn't think I would see a big difference, but it is at least a full shade lighter where my skin peeled. The new skin had a supple glow to it. Oh, I forgot to add that I applied more makari/nadinola about 5 hours later. (after the LA dried).
So far so good. I reapplied to the the left side of my face that hasn't peeled. I look two colors. lol [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] Some of it got on the area that had already peeled and I had to immediately get it off of that area b/c it burned like [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] . So don't apply this to any peeled areas or open.
I plan to start on my body tomorrow. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

she takes them at gun point

I 'borrow' them

Okay, great.. Alizee love, are you using the same neutrogena that GG is using? The pink grapefruit one? If so, how well is it working for you?

It is a body wash but not grapefruit and it works well. There really isn't a smel left on you but it works and cleanse.

So your just using if for cleansing thats all?

Well it exfoliates I think and treats acne

Okay, all the best with that.. I'm just trying to imagien how I am going to apply the lactic acid all over my body with a microdermabration brush...

No expert from what I know you can use a cotton ball to apply the peel to whatever area of clean skin and then rinse it off, it isn't something you pour onto a wah
Sh cloth and scrub with; or I don't think it is.

Anywho hope you find success and I'm going to bed now

lol Night

Yasmynn,

How is everything going now ?

Maharani, how do I apply the lactic acid all over my body and how long do I keep it on for? And do I use the microdermbration brush to remove the peeled skin?

thank you so much.. can't i use a sponge or something? and do i have to let it sit and then wash it off? and what do i use to remove the skin that has peeled off?

i'ma using the paint brush for my arms.. cover more areas and thr sponge will soak most of the acid :/

it depends - give it at least 4 to 5 mins..if it's your first time..

don't remove it by hand :/

you can use retin a - the day after.. that should help

Thank you, much appreciated!!

would hate to get that in my eyes, it's really big. i used one of those once worked nice

Oh its an actual paint brush. I thought it was like a make up brush

actual paint brushes is like scratching the skin if you move to fast, ouch

Wouldn't a cttom ball work just as well? And no I'm not finding ways to yse my ill gotten gains lol

never use cotton balls before but i would imagine they would work a lot better than a brush

The thing is with the cotton balls they absorb a lot of the solution which means you end up wasting a lot.
