Ukrainian beauty brand Cocos presents its Lactic & Succinic Peel. This is an effective product for superficial chemical skin peeling with a pronounced anti-inflammatory effect. The peel is perfect for sensitive and ageing skin, but it can be used for all skin types.
The key active ingredient contained in the product is lactic acid. It has a more gentle exfoliating effect than most other acids used in chemical peels, which makes it perfect for overly sensitive skin. Lactic acid makes the skin smoother and lighter, produces a soothing effect, and prevents dehydration.
The effect of lactic acid is complemented by succinic acid, also known as spirit of amber. Succinic acid doesn’t have a strong exfoliating effect, but it is valued for its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. The ingredient neutralises the harmful effects of free radicals, stimulates skin healing and regeneration, improves collagen and elastin synthesis in the epidermis, and strengthens capillary walls.
Lactic & Succinic Peel 10% (pH 3.5) by Cocos is designed for delicate exfoliation and cleansing of ageing and dehydrated skin. If you’ve never used chemical peels before, such concentration is perfect to start with. The product prevents dull and lifeless skin, helps to reduce wrinkles and signs of photoageing, combats acne and prevents acne scars, normalises sebum secretion. It can be suitable for people who are hypersensitive or allergic to other chemical peels.
Directions. Apply several drops of product to clean, dry skin with your fingertips, avoiding the area around the eyes. Leave for several minutes, then apply chemical peel neutraliser and leave for 1 more minute. Rinse thoroughly with cool water. Leave the peel for 1 minute during the first application, than add 1 minute during each subsequent procedure, but don’t leave the product on the skin longer than 15 minutes. Use once a week for 2 or 3 months (10–12 procedures).
A light tingling or burning sensation during the procedure is a normal reaction to chemical peel, as well as red skin or flaking within 1–2 days after peeling. However, if you experience severe burning or other unpleasant symptoms, you should consult a doctor. To prevent allergic reactions, do a patch test on a small area of the skin (for example, on your wrist or behind the ear) 24 hours before the first application.
Do not use during pregnancy or lactation, shortly after tanning, or if you have couperose skin, herpes, bleeding disorders, diabetes mellitus. Do not apply to damaged or inflamed skin.
