What the community says
Pros
- Very effective at smoothing rough, dry skin and clearing flakiness with a single weekly use
- Strong acid concentration delivers visibly softer and clearer skin, often called a game changer for texture
- Versatile use cases include body exfoliation and occasional spot treatment for breakouts
Cons
- High risk of irritation, burning, and redness, particularly if overused or layered with other actives
- Steep learning curve for timing and frequency—users must carefully limit application to avoid chemical burns
- Mixed results on hyperpigmentation and acne scars; many find it less effective than pricier peels like DE Babyfacial
