Before applying, be familiar with precautions. Cleanse the skin thoroughly. Gently patch the skin dry. Wait five more minutes for the skin to be completely dry (water neutralize acid). Apply the peel evenly with an applicator ( you can spray on cotton or fingers and gently pat the skin. Leave on  for 3-10 minutes - depending on skin sensitivity -  you can gradually increase how long you leave it on - best every 2 weeks or every 5th peel treatment - whatever comes first. Avoid the eyes. Skin around the brow, nose and mouth area is most sensitive, you may want to avoid it. Remove peel by flushing thoroughly skin with cool water. 

May repeat treatment 1-3 times a week. Don’t repeat the treatment if skin feels irritated - wait till it’s fully recovered.

Lactic acid can cause purging. Lactic acid
speeds up your skin cell turnover rate - this makes microcomedones turn into acne and blemishes more quickly, causing a sudden rush of breakouts on your face.

A physical Sunblock must be worn daily. Its best to avoid prolonged sun exposure for 1-week post peel.
