Dreaming of a smoother and brighter complexion? Well, wake up gorgeous, The Benefit Brightening Peel is here!
Give me the lowdown
Talk about skin with benefits! Packed with antioxidants, Vitamin C, Vitamin A and Salicylic Acid (to kick congestion to the curb and improve the overall texture of your skin), the Benefit Brightening Peel is amazing for peeps with sensitive skin, including rosacea! A pro at skin resurfacing while rebalancing the acid-base mantle, this brightening peel will help lighten, protect and correct your complexion, evening out your skin tone and generally making your skin feel like a million bucks! The treatment starts with a double cleanse before applying the peel which stays on your cute face for about 10 minutes, allowing those amazing active ingredients to absorb. The peel is then soaked off and serums and a rich moisturiser are applied. All Advanced Medi-Peels include customised clinical masks and a tailored LED treatment, which stimulates collagen production and kills the bacteria below the skin (you know, that nasty stuff that causes acne). The treatment itself is totally painless, however you may feel a slight tingling or tightening sensation when the peel is applied and some flushing afterwards, but this will subside within a few hours. Results are best seen between one and five days following your treatment and have a cumulative effect. Your skin will be noticeably brighter and smoother, with a huge improvement in tone and texture.
Is it right for me?
The Benefit Brightening Peel is an excellent treatment for redness, rosacea and congested skin types, as well as dull and dry skin and uneven tone and texture. Also fab for treating hyperpigmentation and photodamage! Before having this peel it’s essential your skin is prepped with one of our Vitamin A serums. This treatment is not suitable for pregnant or breastfeeding babes as it contains Retinol.

How many treatments will I need?
After a single treatment your skin will be noticeably smoother and brighter, however best results from a Benefit brightening Peel are seen from 3 treatments, spaced 4-6 weeks apart.
Is there any downtime?
Although there is no downtime with this vitamin A peel, you may experience dryness or light peeling for two to five days post treatment. Rest assured this is totally normal due to the increase in cellular turnover and can be easily covered with makeup!
Handy to know
After your Benefit Brightening Peel, it’s a good idea to avoid strenuous activities like HIIT training, rock climbing or mountain biking and swimming for 24 hours.
SC Pro Tip
When it comes to vitamin A peels and treatments at SC, we always recommend using a high protection sunscreen to prevent damage to the skin post-treatment, so be sure to use SPF30 or above on your cute face daily (and don’t forget to re-apply throughout the day).
