Serious Skin Care Glycolic Retexturizing Pads
I really like these! thank you so much for encouraging me to give them a try as I have sensitive skin.
The first day I used it on my face it had a burning sensation with some redness. I kept it on for 30 minutes and then rinsed it off. Put on my regular mositurizer. The next day I swiped my face again without the side effects so I kept it on and put my mositurizer on over it. If you are really sensitive just take it slow so your skin can adapt. The redness dissipates quickly.
This is a great exfoliator, my skin is smoother with a more radiant appearance. A definite keeper!:womanhappy:

I’m glad u like them!! I don’t have sensitive skin and can use them once a day. Glycolic acid is the smallest AHA (alpha hydroxy acid) there is, so it penetrates well. I use the SSC Glycolic Pads everywhere – decollete, feet, and the area where the hairs get ingrown easily. :smileywink: They r also good to prep skin before self-tanning, as well as for removing self-tanning mistakes. :smileyvery-happy:

I forgot to ask if ur pads leaked in the box when u received them ?. Mine always leak, even though they r sealed. The one I just got was really wet and ruined my invoice!
I reported it and was offered an exchange, but I said no thank u, and the rep said she would credit $7 to my card for the inconvenience. I thought that was good customer service. :smileyhappy:

I need to give these a try. :womanwink:

Just an update on the SSC glycolic pads for all you sensitive gals out there!. It’s now day 6 and my skin tolerates it perfectly with no heat or redness. I swipe it on. 10 minutes later put my moisturizer over it.
I go to the dermatologist every other year to check and have them freeze off the “actenic keratosis”,
small pre-cancerous red spots. Well I had one pop up on my temple lately and have been swiping hard on it with the acid pad and it’s dissapearing. I love ths product!!!:heart::heart::heart:

I like glycolic and other acids on my skin daily. It makes a big difference.
-
? it sure does! The SSC is the first acid pad that worked for me and is now part of my daily routine. Skin is much smoother.:heart::smileyhappy:

HELP — Can anyone share their experience with the SSC “Extreme Facial Peel”?? I’ve made the glycolic pads a part of my daily beauty routine and now considering trying it I am fair skinned.
Thanks:womanvery-happy:

I just checked the ingredient’s list on the acid pads and No. 2 on the list is “Glycolic Acid”. Now I know why I love this product!:smileyhappy:
-
? nice to have you back and hope you had a great vacation.:smileyhappy: I have not tried the Gommage yet, but will let you know. Do you know how I can find out the percentage of Glycolic on the” Glycolic extreme facial peel”? Hope it’s at least 30 percent.:womanhappy:

Discount alert for the Serious Skin Care Glycolic pads & Gommage combo. They are offering it for $24.50 today for both – usually $39.50. I ordered it and just love this product. Highly recommend even for the “sensitives” out there.:womanhappy:

I LOVE SSC. I did a facial last night and I feel great!

The Serious Skincare products I am using are the GLYCOLIC Cleanser, Pads and Gommage. Everyone needs glycolic! :smileyvery-happy: I prefer the Glycolic Pads over the Vitamin A and Pure Peptide Pads. I also prefer the Glycolic Cleanser over the Vitamin A Cleanser.
I am weary of SSC’s moisturizers and eye creams due to the ingredient decks. I have tried their A Force XR Retinol Serum, which is very mild, perhaps bc it is mostly water. :smileyfrustrated: Now I use Dr. Graf’s Ferulic + Retinol Serum; it is excellent and anhydrous (contains no water). :smileyvery-happy: ? It is back in stock!
I am interested in their latest serum…can’t remember the name, but it was expensive and sold out. I got their Phyto Pumpkin Facial Scrub last year and thought it was ok. I don’t like scrubs in jars, bc when using it in the shower, water from your hand gets inside when u scoop it out. This particular scrub is a bit watery to begin with, so I did not order one this year. :smileyindifferent:

I have been trying the glycolic pads too and continue to get an ever-so-slight stinging sensation. I used it on my neck and dec and got a bit of a reaction and am sticking to using it on my face only. However, this pales in comparison to the reaction my neck and dec got from the SSC Retinol pads. No problem on my face but on my neck and dec I actually got blisters! Of course, to make sure it wasn’t something else, I had to try the Retinol pads on my neck and dec again and same horrible reaction. I didn’t realize our face skin was so different from other skin.

I love these pads too and received them in a Glycolic box of goodies Jen’s visit this Summer – glad I ordered two boxes:heart:. I actually cut the large pad in half and use each staurated piece a.m. and p.m.. I just ordered the pads and glommage combo on sale right now $24.95 as I am getting great compliments since started using these and don;t want to be without and price is great. I have very fair English skin but these pads do not sting and just leave a lovely soft sheen once face has dried. I’m also using the very expensive but worth it manual microwand once a week in conjunction – like a diamond foot file but teeny for the face:-).

Say it isn’t so! I have a friend who recently commented that she needs to do something to her skin and that mine had a nice glow to it. So I wanted to order the glycolic pads with gommage and give it to her as a Christmas gift.
Well, they are sold out now. Is this a classic in the SSC line and will it be back? Thanks.:womanhappy:
