I've heard that you cannot treat your combination skin the same. I, for a while, just did an acne cream and used if a moisturizer if needed.


its different for everyone. everyone has different skin and reacts differently. if clean and clear isnt working then try something else.

Product Description

The Skin Obsession 40% Alpha Beta Chemical peels can truly stop your acne outbreak in its tracks. The Beta component, Salicylic Acid, is a common treatment for acne, but we have increased the concentration to a more effective level than you can get over the counter. In addition, we have the second component, the Alpha Hydroxy acid: Glycolic acid, at 40%, which helps keep your skin exfoliated and fresh, preventing the ability of acne to form under the skin and in the pores. The next step up from our 30% Alpha Beta peel, this peel can retexturize the skin, restoring the radiance of your youth. These easy to use peels combine the benefits of both the AHA's and BHA's, with little to light peeling at the 40% concentration. These peels are repeated monthly and this kit provides enough peel solution for approximately 6 months worth of peels. I get a lot of questions about this, so I will clear up the confusion now: The steps are actually backwards from the name, the medical establishment named it, not me! So you will apply the Beta acid first (even though the beta is listed second in the name) and the Alpha Acid goes on 2nd (even though it is listed first in the name) The bottles are labeled Step one and Step 2, and that will match the directions you are given with the peel, use step 1 first and step 2 second. Hope this clears things up for those of you who are really curious about that kind of stuff! Your skin will feel softer, look smoother, with improved texture and tone and reduced hyperpigmentation (sun damage). Those are the differences on the surface of your skin. With a peel of this strength, a full course of peels (8-10 peels) are needed to see optimal results. We include easy to understand instructions and a free sample of our best selling Microdermabrasion crystals.

Awesome Product!
I was shopping around for a light, less scary, chemical peel than the professional ones. This was exactly what I needed! I was sill nervous when it arrived and did my first treatment but I am VERY pleased with the results. The 2 little bottles re all you need (plus household baking soda) and that is literally IT. Not cream, no after care regimen, nothing. It is light enough to not do a huge nighttime lotion repair regimen that some offer, yet, it is strong enough to really peel the first thin layers of skin. I was not laid up in bed for days, jut dry patches that flaked off. I did start using thin cotton rounds instead of cotton balls though. The cotton balls seemed to absorb more than putting the product on my face. It is a tad painful... ouch. But within 10 minutes I was completely fine, NO after effects. Rinsing hurt worse than applying - just to give you a heads up. I believe the instructions say first step 3 minutes 2nd step 5, and I always do 1st step 2 minutes 2nd...
Great product!
I'm a 34 yr old black woman with caramel colored skin and have been suffering from cystic acne for years. My skin is combination, but mostly oily in the t-zone and just a mess of acne scars on my chin. For the past few months, I'd been getting a new, big, fat, cystic zit on my chin every week. I'd used glycolic acid in the past and read some reviews about peels, so thought I'd give this a shot. I've done this peel twice and saw results even just after the first. It does burn, but the second time wasn't as bad. A light scab forms over "bad" skin which peels off starting the 3rd or 4th day revealing brighter, clearer skin. I was a little red, but went out the night I did even my first one and no one noticed. Peeling off the old, dead skin does make way for everything that's bubbling below to make its way to the surface, so do expect some minor breakouts, but mine didn't do NEARLY as much damage and scarring as they would've in the past. Overall, a great...
Better than a dermatologist
This is exactly what I have been looking for to even out my complexion which has sun damage and hyperpigmentation from acne. The peeling works within a day or two and is not too extreme so that I can still go out in public and not look like a snake shedding its skin. My skin looked better after the first use, and after three uses once a week I started getting compliments on my skin. A dermatologist office quoted me $5,000 to resurface my face, but this stuff works just as good.

How Our Skin Changes As We Age

One of the most significant changes of the skin as we age is increased dryness. The hormonal changes that accompany aging can accentuate this. Mature skin tends to be dry and tight, with a rough, wrinkled texture and a dull appearance. A significant part of this can be attributed to a reduction in the water content_PG of the uppermost layer of the skin, a decrease in intercellular lipids, and a decrease in sebum secretion, all of which are needed for skin to stay soft, supple and smooth.

Consumer research carried out by Olay has shown that mature women consider moisturization to be a primary need. Indeed, many women find that when they reach menopause the moisturizer that they have used for years is no longer enough – our skin can still feel dry and tight. Mature skin has a greater need for good daily skin care, including mild cleansing and rich moisturization.

Recognizing the special needs of mature skin, Olay has created the Total Effects range of rich creams, fluids and mild cleansers that deliver maximum moisture nourishment.. The Total Effects line is specially formulated to harness the power of 7 vitamins and minerals to help your skin defy the effects of aging.

The aging zones of the face

Can you tell your age by your face? Do you look younger or older than your chronological age? What is it about your face that makes you look older or younger? With advancing age, there are several changes that occur in the color and texture of the skin. Most people develop wrinkles around the eyes (crow's feet), furrows on the forehead (frown lines), and tiny creases around the lips.

Most wrinkles have in common the underlying degradation of the collagen & elastin support structure from aging and cumulative damage from UV exposure. However, each of these wrinkle areas have their own additional causes. Crows feet are especially related to sun exposure, requiring the diligent use of sunscreen and protective eyewear. Furrows on the forehead are related to facial expression, meaning that people who frown or crease their brow are more likely to develop these lines. Tiny wrinkles around the lips, into which lipstick bleeds, are especially sensitive to bone loss or osteoporosis of the face. Some of these wrinkles are preventable, but others are not, yet these signs of aging eventually affect most people.

What can you do? Fortunately, there are a variety of treatments available to make your skin look its best. Sunscreen is a must, of course, every day on every sun-exposed part of the body, especially the face. Look for a product with UVA and UVB protection. UVA protection is especially important, in the form of microfine zinc oxide or avobenzone, to help prevent these rays of the sun from causing wrinkles and unsightly brown spots.

New effective anti-aging therapies for the face have been developed in the form of prescription vitamin A creams or in the form of over-the-counter vitamin E, vitamin B5 and vitamin B3 combinations. Advanced methods of accelerating skin surface renewal and achieving better skin texture are available through beta hydroxy acid exfoliating creams and the use of specially textured daily face cloths. To minimize lip creases, special treatment cosmetics can be used in the form of lipsticks that smooth peeling lips and improve lip moisturization. Intensive vitamin spot treatments are helpful in minimizing the look of brown spots or other discolorations.

Skin care science is developing many practical options to improve skin appearance. These options can help you look your best at any age!



Customer Reviews

A great multi-faceted moisturizing cream!
After searching for a moisturizer, a line tamer, and an age spot reducer, I found all three in Olay Total Effects Cream for Mature Skin! After three weeks, my facial lines have diminished, my age spots have faded considerably, and my skin is moisturized all day and night. This is truly a wonderfuyl product - so much so that I repurchased 8 more after using this product for only one week! I highly recommend this Olay cream, and I will continue to purchase it from Amazon's trusted seller, mujer320. What a great price for a marvelous product!!!
