We all want to look our best always. Good looks give us poise and confidence, whether it is at work, at a party or on any other special occasion. A glowing skin is an intrinsic part of skincare. But how can you ensure that your skin looks radiant? Facial peels are the only sure shot way. They breathe a new life into dull skin and ensure a healthy glow. With so many facial peels available, choosing the right one becomes a difficult task. There is absolutely no need to fret as we have got you covered.

Retinoic acid peel

Don't be dismayed to see a chemical peel right on top of the list. A retinoic acid facial peel is a wise choice for people who want a lifting effect. It guarantees improved skin texture. The retinoic acid will drill the cells to perform better. The treatment will leave you with enviable skin. With a natural finish, it will instantly complement the make-up that you plan to put on.

Glycolic acid peel

It is the mother of all peels and it complements all skin types. Glycolic acid is ingested into the skin and it peels off the dead cells on the epidermis, which results in a glow. It is recommended for both young and ageing skin. The deep penetration offered by glycolic acid peel is long lasting and is perfect for special occasions.

It shields the skin against carbon, provides anti-ageing and curative benefits. The result of this peel can last up to 10 years, but it is a highly specialsed procedure that needs to be done right.
