Is your skin in need of some major buffering, brightening and clarifying? An exfoliator should be part of you daily skin care regimen – but which one you might be wondering? Consumer reviews suggest Pixi Beauty has a wonderful product called ‘Glow Tonic’ – however, the main comment or concern was that the concentration within was only 5% glycolic acid.
This provided a great foundation of toner or mild exfoliator – especially for those with sensitive skin. However, consumers wanted more – the ability to have a product similar to that of a peel that would be able to give them a clearer, healthier glow with each and continued use.
Pixi Beauty heard the cries, and responded with this product – the Glow Peel Pads.

Glycolic acid is a type of alpha-hydroxy acid, is often regarded as a bit of a miracle ingredient amongst dermatologists. This is because in addition to acting as an intense non-physical exfoliator, to help skin shed dead skin cells, it can also help to ward off the first signs of fine lines and other aging properties.
As mentioned-above, each pad contains Vitamin E and Aloe Vera, but in addition to those two ingredients, Rose Water. Depending of course on your familiarity with rose water, this might seem like an odd addition, but once you understand its benefits – you will see why this is a bonus.
Rose Water has anti-inflammatory properties and helps reduce redness in irritated skin. It can help reduce eczema and helps remove oil, dirt and toxins from clogged pores. It can help hydrate and revitalize the skin as well as aid in healing due to its antibacterial properties.
With its antioxidant benefits, rose water also works to strengthen the skin can regenerate skin tissues. These details are clearly important when you are using an exfoliator of 20% concentration.
So, not only are you getting a high concentration of the glycolic acid to clear away the impurities and dead skin, but you are also receiving quality ingredients to help protect and heal the skin from any irritation.
Directions For Use
This product can be used daily, according to manufacturers in the evening hours. Several reviews did indicate that they do not use the product daily due to the exfoliator nature of the product, and with its higher concentration found it a bit irritating – although effective.
Apply the Glow Peels Pads to the face and neck, tops of hands, and other external areas, and leave on the skin for 203 minutes.
Rinse immediately following the wait time with cool water. This will help neutralize the peel. You may feel a slight burning or tingling feeling.
Upon application if you should notice any irritation, it is best to rinse of immediately. In the event that the irritation spreads or continues, you should consult with your skin care professional.
It is highly suggested that consumers use a SPF through the day time, because, a product containing glycolic acid can have you more susceptible to the sun light.
