Fruit Fiesta Peel

Rather than using expensive, harsh, risky chemical peels, try Nature's answer to anti-aging with natural alpha hydroxy acids, beta hydroxy acids and fruit enzymes.

Alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs), beta hydroxy acids (BHAs) and enzyme peels stimulate and improve circulation to the skin while sloughing off dead surface cells and removing impurities from the pores. AHAs loosen the binders that hold dead skin cells together in the stratum corneum, the outer most layer of the skin, while fruit enzymes and BHAs dissolve dead skin cells. With regular use, younger cells become more visible on the skin's surface, creating an improved skin texture. Brown patches begin to disappear. Wrinkles and fine lines are softened, due to the removal of dead cells. Dry skin is more receptive to moisturizing.

L-lactic acid from milk, L-malic acid from apples, L-tartaric acid from grapes, L-mandelic acid from bitter almond, peaches and apricots are all AHAs. Salicylic acid, from white willow bark, is a BHA that acts similarly to fruit enzymes by dissolving dead skin cells that have migrated to the skin's surface.

These AHAs, BHAs and fruit enzymes are less irritating to the skin, more cost effective and produce results similar to Retin-A, the acne-treatment prescription drug too freely offered as the solution to reversing wrinkles. Side effects from the use of Retin-A can be severe photo sensitivity and possible damage to the liver and other organs.

Acne responds well to the use of these natural acids and fruit enzymes that gently removes the thickened dead skin that forms on acne skin, thereby exposing the pores. This in turn allows the pores to distribute the oil (sebrum) that is created in the oil glands, instead of clogging the pore.

Hyperpigmentation is a condition of the skin resulting from an excess of melanin, a brown pigment produced by the skin's melanocytes. Hyperpigmentation, brown patches of skin, can occur as a result of repeated over exposure to the sun, (sun-burn) or hormone fluctuations caused by birth control pills or pregnancy. Over exposure to the sun can damage melanocytes, the cells responsible for causing the skin to protect itself by releasing more melanin (brown pigment) and consequently, creating a patchy tan.

During pregnancy, a form of hyperpigmentation (“pregnancy mask” - splotchy discoloration on the face) sometimes occurs due to the placenta's secretion of a hormone that, in turn, stimulates the melanocytes to increase melanin production at an unusually high rate. When pregnant, it is best to avoid long term sun exposure to minimize the possibility of the occurrence of these facial blotchy brown spots. The condition usually disappears after pregnancy, but in some cases, it lingers.

Anti-aging remedies using AHAs, BHAs and fruit enzymes have become popular because they increase circulation to the skin as well as stimulate collagen production that minimizes wrinkles. Another benefit of using these natural ingredients is their cellular renewal ability. As we get older, cell regeneration slows down dramatically, to about 50% of that of a younger person. Dry scaly skin is caused by the accumulation of old dead, dehydrated skin cells.

MyChelle Dermaceuticals has captured all of the above benefits, and more, with its Fruit Fiesta Peel which contains cherry puree, D-cranberry complex puree, pumpkin puree, apple puree, blueberry puree, distilled water,
L-lactic acid, glycerine, pumpkin enzymes, pineapple enzymes, D-glucuronic acid, L-tartic acid, L-malic acid, pomegranate extract, raspberry extract, bitter orange extract, mulberry bark extract, wild cherry bark extract, ginseng, blue malva extract, salicylic acid, honey, L-mandelic acid, red wine, red grapeseed extract, lycopene extract, rye polyglucose, natural orange and grapefruit oils, xanthan gum, and jasminol.

To treat severe acne or weathered skin, begin skin rejuvenating with Fruit Fiesta Peel once a day for the first three days, and then, just twice a week, to maximize results. All it takes is one to five minutes per application.

If your skin is sensitive, do a patch test first. Then, take one minute (that's all!) to treat your skin with Fruit Fiesta Peel.

Be sure to cleanse first with MyChelle's Fruit Enzyme Cleanser, or Honeydew Cleanser, formulated to make those dead cells more receptive to exfoliation. After gently rinsing off the mask, moisturize with either MyChelle's Pumpkin Renew Cream (for normal to oily skin) or Deep Repair Cream (for dry, mature skin).

Skin that is healthy looks better as a consequence of good nutrition. Remember that caffeine causes dehydration and robs skin (as well as the body) of nutrients that stimulate collagen production.

And, ALWAYS, drink at least 64 ounces of quality water daily to keep your whole body hydrated and functioning at its maximum ability.
