#2 Dr. Dennis Gross Alpha Beta Ultra Gentle Daily Peel
User Ratings
8.8
Overall Ranking
B +
The Dr. Dennis Gross Alpha Beta Ultra Gentle Daily Peel 2-step treatment gently exfoliates and smoothes skin for a more radiant appearance. Although it’s a ‘daily’ peel, our skin quickly dried out and got flaky when we used this product every day. We found that using this peel at night a few times a week really helped even out our skin, but it didn’t do much to help minimize the appearance of pores. When I went a week without using this product, my skin freaked out and broke out.
Pros
- It's very gentle
- 2 easy steps
Cons
- My skin broke out as soon as I stopped using it
THE BOTTOM LINE
This peel from Dr. Dennis Gross is super gentle and effectively smoothes the skin. If you’re like me and struggle to follow a consistent skincare regimen, you might want to consider other products on this list.
#3 Volition Beauty Apple Cider Vinegar Resurfacing Peel Pads
User Ratings
8.6
Overall Ranking
B
Volition Beauty Apple Cider Vinegar Resurfacing Peel Pads is a daily peel that exfoliates, brightens, and tones the skin. We were hesitant to try this product at first because we thought the vinegar might irritate our skin. For me, it was refreshing and felt like a good detox! Some of the other women who have more sensitive skin experienced redness. Other women couldn’t get past the strong vinegar smell.
Pros
- Refreshing detox
Cons
- May irritate sensitive skin
- Unpleasant scent
THE BOTTOM LINE
Volition Beauty Apple Cider Vinegar Resurfacing Peel Pads can be a great detoxifying skin treatment. For those with sensitive skin, you might want to patch test before using to prevent potential irritation.
#4 Hanacure All-In-One Facial - Starter
User Ratings
8.5
Overall Ranking
B
The All-In-One Facial – Starter from Hanacure is a multi-action treatment designed to remove impurities and improve skin’s complexion. After using it our skin felt firmer and was glowing. It even helped smooth out some of my wrinkles on my face! Although I was pleased with the results, I was disappointed that this one-time facial cost $30.
Pros
- Oil-free
Cons
- Only a single application
- Pricey
THE BOTTOM LINE
We were really pleased with the results of this product, but didn’t think it gave us the best value for our money.
#5 SK-II Facial Treatment Mask
User Ratings
7.9
Overall Ranking
C +
The SK-II Facial Treatment Mask offers a cool, calming sensation while moisturizing the skin. Every time we used this product, our skin immediately felt smoother and looked brighter. For the price, we were expecting a bit more than what we got. Our biggest frustration was the facial mask cutouts- they didn’t match up with our faces, making it difficult to fully relax.
Pros
- Cools and calms the skin
- Softens skin
Cons
- Face mask cutouts don’t align with face
THE BOTTOM LINE
We were thrilled with the results of the SK-II Facial Treatment Mask, but at around $16/ facial, other products on this list provided us a better value for our money.
