After attending a woman’s show, I came home with several samples of the BeautiControl products to give the face an instant lift. These can be purchased separately and used as you wish, and the product I want to tell you about is the BeautiControl BC Spa Resurface Multi-Acid Resurfacing Peel.
This product comes in a small round container, and it holds 30 pre-moistened pads. These pads are white, have a nice cloth like feel to them, and are very durable. I have been tempted to use them more than once, as when I throw them away they still seem quite wet.
What BeautiControl Claims
BeautiControl BC Spa Resurface Multi-Acid Resurfacing Peel pads are intended to “exfoliate the skin to help reduce the appearance of line, wrinkles, and age spots”. They naturally encourage the turnover rate of skin cells, leaving you with younger looking skin. The pads contain several different acids, including aplha, poly, and beta-hydroxy acids.
How To Use The Pads
The instructions say to “Swipe pad over clean, dry face using semi-circular strokes”. You should avoid the skin around your eyes and lips, and you need to let the product dry on your face for 10-20 minutes. Then you can rinse it off with warm water and dry your face.
My Experience
I thought the BeautiControl BC Spa Resurface Multi-Acid Resurfacing Peel pads would be abrasive, but the cloth is smooth and they smell like alcohol. When I use this pad it reminds me of a doctors office. I always set the timer for about 15 minutes and let the ingredients do their thing. While I am waiting, my skin does have a slight burning sensation, but it is tolerable. The acid exfoliator help to loosen the dead skin cells on the face. (The next step is to use the Microderm Abrasion Cream to remove the dead skin cells that have been loosened).
Because the BeautiControl BC Spa Resurface Multi-Acid Resurfacing Peel pads contain these alpha hydroxy acids, the product warns that you really need to take precautions to wear a sunscreen while out in the sun, because the acids can make the skin more sensitive and susceptible to sunburn.
After using these pads, followed up with the use of the Microderm Abrasion Cream for the face, my face felt softer than it has felt in years! When I do this in the morning, my skin still feels like velvet by the end of the day. I have used a variety of face scrubs and creams to exfoliate my skin, because I have a somewhat uneven skin tone due to melasma. I have been very pleased by how easy this product is to use, and although it is expensive, I feel it has helped my skin to look younger after just one application. That is pretty impressive. I am looking forward to seeing what could happen after I have used these products for several months.
The 30 count container retails for $50.00 and can be purchased online or through a BeautiControl representative.
