My DIY 50% Glycolic Acid Peel Experience
Вставка
- Опубліковано 7 лип 2016
- My DIY 50% Glycolic Acid Peel Experience I woke up this morning and decided that my skin looked like total crap and needed some help before going on set. I've had the Carbon Skincare 50% Glycol Peel in my medicine cabinet for months and have used it a few times, but it's been several months and while giving myself a refresher on How-To - I figured I'd share. Definitely not looking at all pretty in this video!!! But we all go through it...
Carbon Skincare 50% Glycolic Acid Peel amzn.to/29swGOR
I don't think it gets me even close to the results I get at the dermatologist's office, but I'm also not spending nearly as much and I get to do it in the privacy of my own home. This is the only DIY glycolic peel that I have used so I don't know how well it compares with others on the market. Have you tried different ones? What do you recommend? Let us know in the comments!

Just a tip- I keep a salt shaker filled with baking soda in my medicine cabinet i use it as a handy way to store baking soda in the bathroom when I when do peels and (sometimes on a whim shake some on my toothbrush for extra whitening) but I feel the same way as you for the neutralizing solution I just shake some in my hands when I rinse the peel off and it works pretty good
Idk if youll see this comment. But I just have to tell you that I find you to be so inspiring! I'm 27 years old and although people tell me I have a long way to go I get scared of getting older because everyone acts as though it's the end and there's no stopping aging. But you give me hope! You are absolutely gorgeous! Your skin and body look so much younger than 50!!! Omg you look so good!!
I don't know who you are, but I love the realness of you!!!!! and you beautiful!
Beginners should ALWAYS start with 5-8% and NEVER go above 20-25% and let them sit on 2-4 minutes only!!! Always neutralize a mix of baking soda and water if you do this at home.
Thank you for being so real and unpretentious. I love your Personality. I know I've seen you in movies or on TV but I can't remember which ones. After watching this tutorial, I want to watch everything you have ever been in. Thank you for being genuine and wanting to share and help others.
I was never told by a doctor about my face turning red so easily and after watching many of your videos, you helped me to figure out I have sensitive skin too. Thank you so much! ❤️
Loved this video! I'm new to glycolic peels and was very nervous to use the 40% I just got, but omg u totally eased my mind!! Thank u!!❤️
I think women should know they can VERY SERIOUSLY SCAR THEIR SKIN starting out with a 50% Glycolic Acid Peel. All you have to do is google it. Beginners should always start out with 10%, and lactic acid is the gentlest, but glycolic is fine. There are countless threads of women who used too high of a percentage to start with, and they are frantically posting about pink raw skin burns, or oozing cracked skin where the pigment is completely gone, and they are scarred, some taking two years or never recovering their former pigment. I used a 10% lactic acid from Ebay (Beverly Hills M.D, and they say don't start higher than 10%), following their directions, except not using the cotton pad (same as you), and I couldn't get it off fast enough by two minutes. My skin was tight and red the next day. I just don't want someone to put on medical grade acid, that is un-buffered and have permanent scars.
Thank you for posting!!!
Jezebel1115 I have an 80 percent TCA peel. It will be a year before I work my way up
I use a 70% all the time. Leave on for 5 min and rinse with plain temped water. I am a licensed skin care specialist. Its not that scary if you follow the directions. Dont scare people for no good reason.
Don't be irresponsible. You're licensed? It should be taken away. People on UA-cam just search "Chemical Peel Burns". I'm sure someone has posted. They also shouldn't rinse with plain water, except maybe at a low level of 10 or 25% they can get away with only water. They should have a mix of half water and half baking soda to neutralize it when it starts burning. Maybe a half cup. Make sure to wear sunscreen for the next few days and try to stay out of the sun.
viclloyd1 I do 70% gycolic peels to and I buy it right from makeup artist choice snd they have great instructions that come with it. They only mention to use baking soda with the THA peels. I use water as well unless I left it on to log and it stings to much then I'll use my baking soda.
Great vid! I started with 15% and never did the neutralizer. Just rinsed with cool water. I now do the 30% once a month.
Congratulations on the movie!! I play a grandma in real life :-)
Me too, and love it
Being Grandma us THE Best role I've EVER had! It truly brightens my soul!!!
I love you Monique you are SO REAL! Yes there is no reason to pay cosmetic surgeons $300 - $2000 for simple things we can LEARN to to at home. Sure some people need to understand some of the safety aspects but if you start small and work up the skin will adjust. I am a man and posted dozens of facials on Facebook. Nobody cared at all. By the way I haven't seen any videos of you using those microdermic needle skin rollers yet. Would love to see what you think of those. I have a great toner I get on Amazon, I love and just add one bottle of 30% glycolic to it and it works great. I have 12.5 % TCA also but I don't use that often because it does require neutralizing. I found you can buy medical microdermabrasion crystals on Amazon also and get just as good results using them as a scrub with a puff pad as the machine at the cosmetic surgeon. When using peels, I try not to go all the way to the frosting stage with acids and use things like pure coconut oil as part of my moisturizing. Great for you to admit you were a smoker and quit. My dogs died last year and I started back. Trying to quit again. Smoking and damaging my face and body won't bring my babies back. Even though I am a man, I love watching your makeup videos too just for your character. You are so real and entertaining.
I'm sorry about your loss Brandt. You sound like such a sweetheart. I hope your doing OK...
I saw that same set in a series I used to watch called the Mentalist. Have fun and congrats. You are always beautiful.
I just did this peel, same strength, thanks for your tutorial! I was a little disappointed it didn't sting more lol.... maybe my skin is tough, or maybe I just have so many layers of hyperpigmented skin that it's protected ;) thanks anyhow!
I don't get that monthly visitor any longer ~ YAY!!
I'm moving Saturday through Thursday. Wish me LUCK!! My son and daughter must do all the work due to my injuries. I hope all goes well. Thank God I have the most WONDERFULLY, able kids who I'll do most the work. It's hell getting old!
I love how you break all the rules 😂😂 hilarious!!
You have such a youthful spirit. I enjoy you so much
I would not use alcohol all over my face. I love Thayer Rose Petal witch hazel.
Every doctor would say to neutralize after glycolic or will keep burning deep inside for at least 24 hours. You probably don't feel nothing on the surface of your skin, but inside it burning your cells. That's serious. Trust.
Please. The older roles in movies is what makes the movie. For example, I watched Black Swan last week and Barbara Hersey's role is what made the movie a success. She brought the sinister and creepy, not the black swan part. The younger roles are always the same in each movie but each older role has a uniqueness to it. This applies to the men also. Go ahead a rock your inner grandma.
LOL....I do it just like you with my fingers! I also don't use the neutralizing solution I am also lazy! Once a month I put on the 50% glycolic peel for 3 to 5 min. right before I get into the shower! I have never had a problem doing it this way!
Never used an acid peel, kinda scared to. But you did take some of the mystery away. I though your skin was going to be super red. I may give it a try one day. Congrats on the movie!
Thank you for being so real and direct! Today is my first time using 50% - peel. You just made me feel 100% secure. I did the test.. on my forearm did not feel or see anything.. so I went ahead and did another test under my chin and went ahead and did my neck. Felt normal stinging. Have no redness. My directions imply wait 48 hours before using on the face. After watching your tutorial.. I am going to go ahead and do it in 24 hours. I too, some times go around the rules. I think as long as I am not experiencing crazed stinging or bleeding that I should be ok doing it 24 hours earlier. Monique I also have purchased the 70%. - have you ever done more than the 50%?? Thank you so much for all the info!! You are Beautiful!! Bye 4 now! .
I am a licensed Aesthetician and we never use baking soda after glycolic treatments and I use 70%. I had never heard of it until you talked about it. You just need to rinse until there is no more tingle. I love you and your videos!
viclloyd1 I go to a professional and he uses a professional blend of bicarbonate spray. It's the same thing as the at home blend.
viclloyd1
Ahhh, you have such an awesome personality! Love your sense of humour.
To the other grannies:
Beware, Monique is coming 😂
All the best ❤️
Lol!! I was so freaked out when I found out I was going to be a grandma at 45!!! He's 8 now! And when he was a tot folks thought he was my son, I was that cool! Still am and you will be too. Have fun and thanks for entertaining as you share your expertise!
I missed this video somehow, so I watched it today! I've been using The Ordinarys 10% Lactic Acid + HA 2% for a while now, but I wanted to try something stronger. I ordered The Ordinary's AHA 30% + BHA 2% Peeling Solution from Beautylish several months ago, to be delivered to an American post office box in Buffalo, a fifty minutes' drive from me. It is not even able to be sold here in Canada, because its strength is considered to be, purely, professional grade only. Their peel is to be applied topically (I use a cheap elf make up brush that I've designate for this purpose), and washed off the face with water within 5-10 minutes. I was very nervous the first time I tried it, and it did sting a little bit, but my skin immediately looked better! I use it weekly now, and I'm about to order it again, I like the results of vibrant looking, brightened, and extremely soft skin so much! You might now want to try it, Monique! No muss, no fuss (no pre or post prep with this one), and it's super affordable as well ( $7.20 U.S.)! Canadian love, and hugs, missie, Sherrey💖
The background music makes this hilarious 💀💀
I love this lady. How come the rest of you ladies didn't tell me about her sooner??? That's so selfish. I'm subscribing right now. 😀
+Monique Parent You're very welcome & thank you for having a quality UA-cam channel with substance & gumption.😊😙
I've got some on my face right now and I've never used the neutralizer but will try today. Nice video and a you're a very pretty girl.
I think I will try this or something like this, now that I've seen you do it. I was a little afraid to try it...lol. Good luck with the new movie, I hope you get to post your Grandma "Look". As always, great video!!
I love your videos! I am a mom to 8 amazing people and Grandma to 3. Keep on keeping us beautiful!
Congratulations on your new film role. I hope you enjoy it and putting a little bit of yourself into the grandma!!!
Great vid and I love how genuine you are!
FYI dragging the dropper around your face is going to contaminate the product in the bottle.
you should squirt the stuff into your hand and then apply it from there.
I became a grandma at 37 so you have nothing to worry about!!!You are beautiful & young looking xo
I am always one BIG smile when watching your videos. I feel bad about you not having enough work. I would like to say a pray and light a candle for you at church, in that a nice steady job will come your way and pay really well. GOD Bless. your a hoot!!!
I THOUGH Frosting WAS JUST for the stronger stuff, tca? I've never seen glycolic, frost?
Girl! I applaud you!! Congrats on the not smoking 😃. I'm a smoker and have attempted to quit many times before, even used the patch ...still smoked with the patch on...gave up on the patches and well... I'm still smoking but I have cut back on how many cigarettes I smoke in a day.... eventually I will be smoke free😉
I am a great fan of yours even though I only found you a week or so ago. you always make me smile, thank you!
I worry about you using the dropper that way without the cotton pad as there is a more chance of it dripping into the eye which is dangerous. please do use cotton pad people especially with high percentage peel.
I use a home glycolic peel too 50% and my face is def smoother Thanks for being honest about sometimes not neutralising!😆 I always wondered ...!!
Your location looks amazing. What part of America is it in? I'm from the UK.
Your music is nice and this video is helpful
I think you are marvelous your definitely not “Fake” unlike many other stars. I appreciate you being real and always enjoy your lil quirks👍
Keep em coming gorgeous 💜
You might like Ren's calming mask instead of a peel. I got some as a sample from Sephora, I'm sure they'll give you freebies in store if they have them! They also usually have Dr. Brandt's peel which comes in a 2 step, also comes in minis. They're like little alcohol wipes and again, they usually have samples. But since you mentioned sensitive red skin, the Ren stuff might be more up your alley!
Also, OMG OMG OMG, get a fan to dry stuff faster! The small hand fans are great for drying things, especially makeups!
+Monique, regular witch hazel often has alcohol. Thayer's brand does not. It also has aloe which will heal your skin. :)
Congrats on the part 😃 I'm a gma and am still trying not to look too old. life is good no matter what your age! Thanks for your oh so helpful videos 😉
Being a grandma is so much fun! At our age, the wisdom we've come by coupled with a carefree attitude, is a great role for you to play.
P.S. Your outside shots make me home sick for Orange County!
l love your videos so much . I have it so my phone tells me that you have a video on and I watch all your videos. you are so cool and very informative. thank-you so much for sharing.😃
Monique - love your videos ... and your quirky personality! I've never given myself a peel - you inspire me to try it! Good luck with your acting - hoping you get more parts (that pay lots of money!!)
Thanks for this video - and for being a "rule-breaker" - I CAN TOTALLY RELATE!!!
you’re awesome Monique. thanks so much for that video
So glad I came across your channel! Love your realness - if that’s even a word? Can’t wait to see your other videos.
I was curious about glycolic peel. I found out this is basically alpha hydroxy. So Walgreens has a jar for about $10. It is a non-descript plastic jar. It is usually on the bottom shelf. You can use it easily. It works great!
Was your glycolic peel unbuffered? Should have been stronger. You look brighter and better after the peel.
love your chanel - I did the glycolic peel while following allong with you . OMG did it burn :) I had 50 percent as well . I had the bicarobate to wash it off and was happy with that . lol to stop the brunin and I placed palmers oil on it afterwards and the redness went completely :0 Oh yes and I subdcribed
Love your energy. You are a cool girl✌🏼️
Congrats on your film, I so enjoy all your videos, I have a lot of health issues so UA-cam has become very enjoyable for me and I do at times love to wear make up as I always have but you have given me so many good ideas. I love watching make up and hair tutorials best. 🌺
I'm up to 70% in gycolic and 65% lactic. I get my stuff from makeup artist choice and I just started buying their skin care stuff as well. They have super ingredients in their serums and it doesn't cost you hundreds of dollars. The Ordinary line of skin care is super nice to. Check it out. I'm a skin care junkie.
fun and informative
OH, one more thing... I was able to record your movie Evil Nanny yesterday. I plan on watching it tomorrow when hubby is out of the house and I can enjoy it without interuptions or distractions! Debra
I've been using glycolic peels for years, and I"ve never used a neutralizer..only water. I've actually never heard of that method...so...
www.glycolicsolutions.com this is where I buy my product..plus 10 percent glycolic night cream..and it.is.cheap. :P
have you tried Retin A before? It actually works.
I have tried it... My dermatologist believes glycolic is the best solution to rejuvanate the skin so that's what I stick with....but thank you..
Lotus THA peels are intense to. I like gycolic and lactic as well
Lotus mine used a professional bicarbonate rinse on my peels and then used water afterwards. I've seen lots of doctors use a neutralizer for all kinds of peels. It's a great idea to neutralize and then rinse with water anyways
You have great skin. You could do a TCA peel. They come up to 80 percent. You have to work your way up.
I love your bubbly optimistic approach fabulous you have a new subscriber :) hugs from England x
Thanks for reminding me to use my peel!
I thought it skin looked brighter! I have a friend here in England who's had peels for years,d/k exactly how long for cos she's much older than me, I don't know if it's the peels but her skin is completely baby smooth, no lines, wrinkles, sagging, it looks like a porcelain canvas!! Xx
I feel it's time for a peel myself. I have all the stuff. What a beautiful area you work and live in. Have fun in your Role cast as a Gramma. You would be a young Gram. Do you remember the Mama played by Vickie Lawrence on the comedic Carol Brunette show? She played eunis's mother. She really said it like it was which affected Eunice greatly.
And J.S.Bach!🎼🎶👂☺ So marvellous dear lady!👏 Thank you for the video😘❗Salute❕
It will open up your mind and you will be able to see the future
This woman is maddd fun to watch it's like watching a quick comedic flip & your quite the hottie too for an ex-smoker & a granma...lol
I actually like the way the peel feels! Very informative video. I been buying prep and neutralizer stuff until now. Thank u so much 4 helping me save some $$$
Hi Monique, I enjoy your videos so much! I look forward to watching each new one AND all the ones I've not seen yet. You are so real and down to earth and I'm sure a ton of fun to hang with. After the peel I think your skin looked a bit smoother, maybe fresher? Is fresh actually something one can see?? You know what I mean. Your skin looks FAB for fiftysomething. I'm 56, and a half, and I've got sagging around my mouth and under my chin :( Wish I had your skin. Anywho, keep the videos coming. Happy New Year. Big hugs! Debra
Enjoyed this video as I do all your others. I also "play" a grandma (AKA Nanna) in real life. It's the best role ever! And I plan to do it looking sassy and classy, thanks, in large part, to you!
Also steaming the face after cleansing to open the pores is a great way to help product to sink into the skin.
I didn’t think I would watch the whole video! But I did 🤨. You’re entertaining
Great video I found it very helpful for first time users of glycolic peels!!! Thanks!!!
Congrats on the movie, Monique! I'm a grandmother of 6 beautiful little people, and it all happened in the space of 5 years. When will the movie be released?
How many times a week/ month would you suggest using this? And... What's in your purse Monique????!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Dthe old days of grandmothers being frumpy are over! It will be a great role for you and most grandmas are pretty hip these days!
Can you use this on your neck? Thanks for sharing. I love your personality.
Thank you for reducing the angst re: a facial peel. I'll try it!
What about hair removal products for the face? Any recommendations?
+Monique Parent Thanks, again. Looking forward to more videos and tips!
which type of peeling would you mostly recommend agains strong wrinkles and dark spots?
Be sure to post when the movie is out! Hope to see it.
Congratulations on the film part! I'm sorry it wasn't longer with better pay...next time! You have reminded me of the glycolic peel I bought about the same time you did. It's still sitting in my drawer because I've been too nervous to use it. I watched some videos and the frosting and peeling that a lot of people experienced have not helped...some say to make sure you aren't planning to do anything for a week or more. ack! Maybe I'll dig it out one of these days soon. :)
LOL! Maybe I will look for a lower glycolic concentration :)
It took 2 months at 25 percent daily in pads and now my face is red and a couple of sores. So a break. Going up to 50 percent with breaks and a neutralizer. A tiny bit of difference though today I look like a lobster for the first time. I did them with the shower running so I could jump in after time was up. Never had any flaking or peeling at 25 percent. I'm lazy too. Do them and hop into the shower. Get it all done at once. No neutraluzer but bought for convienve if 50 percent is real strong. 2 months of daily use of pads is a lot but followed instructions. 1 to 3 times a day. Same chemical and cheap.
Does your skin peel a few days after you do this peel? Mine does..but you didnt mention it so Im wondering if it's just something specific to me. BTW I dont do the neutralizer either.I just hop in the shower and rinse it off. No harm , no foul. I used 70% glycolic acid on the backs of my hands and the age spots are now gone. Love that stuff!!!! I get my glycolics online from Sharon Marie Skin Care. Very afforable and a wide selection of items. She will help you with selections if you need it. I use 30 % on my body once every 2 weeks.
Yaaaay!! Happy about your movie role!! It is good to stretch and try something new. Enjoy!
...I too hate the "painintheassedness" of things sometimes! Classic :)
I've loved your video mum. I have bolt my products ( acid and serum) lets try
You're a pretty grandma & congratulations!
50%!!! I have gotta watch this. I've only used up to 20%, and just weekly but maybe i can handle more...
the Andalou Pumpkin Spice Glycolic mask works well...2x a week helps with retin a peeling
cold water is what I use to neutralize the acid
Beautiful job, Monique!
It's a pleasure to see you often. You are a beautiful and lovely actrice! Hugs from Holland😘
very pretty , funny, make me laugh and seem non stuck up. I do believe you to me highly intelligent.
hello
thank you for you video, was very interesting, I have a question, after you used the grycolic acid did you face peel, and if yes for how long peels.
thanks
Monique, you are a hoot! What is the name of the movie? I would love to watch it!
Thanks I love watching you. You tell it like it is. I am a working mom and can't always afford expensive makeup. You always have good ideas and don't always use pricy makeup, and still make your self look beautiful!
Congratulations on the new movie. You will be an awesome grandmother!
So practical and straightforward
You are just so cute and fun. Loved your video.
Aloha Monique! Do you know what the pH is of this product. Makes a huge difference in the quality of the peel. Thanks for the demo. :)))) You might like to try the TCA peels by Platinum. Excellent!!!! It neutralizes itself and done in layers. I love this product. Have fun in your new Gr'ma part. BTW...I'm a grma and love it!!!!
You rule breaker! Hahaha. I love your videos.
