The Red Carpet Event Peel

Formulation Science

Five active peeling agents
Engineered for zero-downtime glow

Unlike aggressive medium peels that cause sheets of flaky skin, the Illuminize Peel utilizes balanced high-molecular weight hydroxy acids for gentle, uniform cellular renewal.

Gentle Surface Exfoliation

Mandelic Acid (AHA)

High-molecular weight fruit acid for non-irritating cellular renewal

Derived from bitter almonds, mandelic acid penetrates the stratum corneum slowly and evenly. It dissolves dead cell bonds without causing burning, redness, or post-peel sheet shedding.

No. The SkinMedica Illuminize Peel is famous as the "First-Time Peel" and "Event Peel" specifically because it produces microscopic exfoliation without visible sheets of peeling skin, heavy crusting, or redness. You can return to work or attend major social events immediately.
