What’s All The Hype About?
Beautycounter’s Overnight Resurfacing Peel is one of Beautycounter’s Hero products because it works amazingly well to get rid of dull skin and reveal brighter, healthier, and more youthful looking skin!
Anti-aging can be SAFE. We do not need to risk our health to get the skincare benefits we are looking for! The word peel can sound a little bit scary to some, but I promise, it’s not! The Overnight resurfacing peel is a “no peel” peel that works to clear away dull skin cells with the help of a proprietary multi-acid complex.
Key Ingredients:
Glycolic Acid: improves the skin texture, resurfaces, and exfoliates
Lactic Acid: stimulates cell renewal promoting a smoother, radiant-looking complexion
Citrus Acid: helps refine and renew skin
Arginine & fatty acids: aid in conditioning and moisturizing the skin
Why is this product safer than other anti-aging products?
Retinol is a common ingredient used in many anti-aging products on the market today. Unfortunately, Retinol is not great for our health. Retinol is also irritating to those with sensitive skin. When using Retinol, you need to be very careful with sun exposure due to photosensitivity. Retinol is not safe for pregnant and breastfeeding women due to concerns for reproductive and developmental toxicity. Also, recent studies have shown that those using retinol are at an increased risk for skin tumors or lesions. Please visit the EWG website here to learn more about the concerns surrounding retinol use.
That being said, Beautycounter’s Overnight resurfacing peel does not use retinol in their anti-aging products. However, it works to promote cellular turnover to allow for brighter, clearer, and more youthful looking skin!
Step One:
Remove your makeup and cleanse your skin! My personal favorite cleanser is the Countermatch foaming cleanser. This works amazingly well to remove makeup, dirt, and impurities.
Step Two:
Next, tone your skin. I love using this toner from Beautycounter. The step helps to prep your skin for the treatment step!
Step Three:
Once you have cleansed and toned your skin, You can apply the Overnight Resurfacing Peel. You will want to use this product 2-4 times per week. Make sure to start off slow to see what your skin’s specific needs are. If you have more sensitive skin, start with just once a week. On the nights that you use your Overnight resurfacing peel, you will skip using your normal nightly serum. Add 1-2 pumps to clean face and neck. Let the product absorb for 3-5 minutes prior to moving onto the final step.
Step Four:
Lastly, you want to protect your skin with a good moisturizer. I love a thick night cream during the winter months. This moisturizer is my personal favorite.
In the morning, cleanse your skin as normal! You will not need to “peel” anything off.
