Can you leave the peel on for an extended period of time?

It's not thick, like a gel, it's a thin like water. When you first put it on it stings a little, and then after about three minutes the stinging goes away, so although I don't think it's bad to leave it on longer, I don't think it does any good because it sort of self neutralizes.

You can leave the product on your skin for up to five minutes. But I would not recommend any longer than five minutes. You will run the risk of burning your skin.

Chemical Peels all have the same instructions, you cleanse your face before applying it. you leave it on for 2-3minutes then gently wash it off with cold water. If you have a neutralizer you add it on before washing it off. You DO NOT!!! go outside for 24 hours after applying a peel, also have sun screen/ Sun block on always. Now I don't know what your trying to get done. there are different uses for peel such as Acne, wrinkles, discoloration, dull skin ect. I'd suggest star out with exfoliating with a soap and exfoliating scrub then do a 30-40% Peel.

Keep it refrigerated; it will last for months. I only use a small amount on specific "spots".

This peel is for people who are used to peels especially 10 or 15 percent strength glycolic acid. If you buy this peel PLEASE follow the directions to the TEE!! Do not leave the peel on any longer than listed initially and use a good sunscreen..... preferably spf 30 or higher or you will burn terribly in the sun. Also the longer you leave on the peel, the more it will frost and the darker the treated or frosted areas will be. If you decide to leave it on for 3-5 min before rinsing, take time off from work or you will have weird stares from people!

It is not a literal "peel". The instructions on the insert say to rinse your face after 8 minutes with "copious" (meaning a really large) amounts of water, so it's just a rinse, you don't have to peel anything off. Good luck!

You sure can! That is one fantastic aspect of the thing. Granted, you need to rinse the peel out, but it makes things a lot easier.

I often leave mine on continuously overnight and for several days. Just ensure your heat setting is not too high.

I left mine on all day all night. It was gooey when I removed mine the next morning. So for me, "no". If one is just wearing it for couple hours, yes!

As far as I can tell, no. It is not something that one could peel off. However, it's pretty unobtrusive. We love this pot!!! Best one we've had in years. As for some of the reviews about discoloration or whatever, we use a little Bar Keeper's Friend and the pot looks like new.

It is usually not advisable to use peels close to mouth, but if you have used peels before, you can try to use it first leaving for only a minute and gradually increase the time. But in my opinion not more than 3 minutes. Wash is as soon as you feel too much irritation and always remember to use a good SPF moisturizer. Hope it helps.

Hi there..actually, I don't ever leave it on for it to get red...For me, I leave on for approx. 10-12 min. I've been use to this and I am Hispanic. I tend to wash with cool water and I can tell rather quickly I have a 'glow'. Now, about the 2nd or 3rd day, I am peeling just a bit. Not a lot, but a little exfoliation does take place. I hope this works for you. In fact, I have one more application and I need to order some more.

Yes you can. As long as you do it within the 7-day period before it falls off.

it should just peel off if done carefully, I would suggest applying a little warmth to soften theadhesve

Yes it does, but the peeling happens slightly over time and is not major, so you can do it the night before you go to work.

There is no down time; however it's important that you don't leave it on longer than the recommended 3 minutes. I use water and baking soda to neutralize the peel first (splash it on my face for a minute or so) and then I rinse with plain water. I apply it with pieces of guaze. Good luck!

Yes, it has started to peel off. I will most likely have to remove it soon.
