Product Review: Juice Beauty Green Apple Peel and Hydrating Mist

Juice Beauty Green Apple Peel and Hydrating Mist are part of an organic line of beauty products sold at Sephora. The peel contains no parabens or pesticides, but does contain citric juice and several vitamins such as Vitamin E, C and A which are beneficial to sensitive skin care. Juice Beauty's Green Apple Peel has a slight hint of an apple scent, but contains lemon, white grape and pineapple juices. The mist is usable after the peel treatment, or anytime throughout the day. Juice Beauty's mist spray acts as a moisturizer and is a product rich in beneficial antioxidants. I used the facial peel and found it to be an excellent product for smoothing the texture of my face, improving skin tone and brightening my overall appearance. The mist was soothing, and made my skin bright and soft.

About Facial Peels
A facial peel is a beauty treatment that exposes new skin cells by stripping off the damaged outer layer of skin cells. The intricate process uses Alpha-Hydroxy-Acid (AHA) and glycolic acid to stimulate young skin cells' membrane to produce collagen. With a facial peel, women and men can fix uneven skin stones, remove sun damage and other skin imperfections, as well as improve the elasticity of their facial skin. Most people think of expensive chemical peels and treatments at a dermatologist's office. The truth is, you can have an effective and inexpensive facial peel right in the comfort of your own home with the help of Juice Beauty Green Apple Peel.

Ease of Application: Excellent
Juice Beauty Green Apple Peel applies quickly and easily. The entire process took less than 15 minutes, which made it a convenient beauty treatment without pesky appointments with a dermatologist. I washed my face using my favorite facial cleanser. I applied the peel gently with my fingertips, avoiding my eyes and lips. I covered my face and neck area with a light layer, as I did not want to apply too much and have a negative skin reaction. I went about my morning, checked my email and waited close to 10 minutes. I rinsed my face off with water and removed any remnants of the facial peel with a clean washcloth.

Skin Reaction: Mild
The label on Juice Beauty's Green Apple Peel warns that a tingling sensation might occur while using this product. I did not sense anything and I'm quite used to my skin reacting with other treatments such as micro-dermabrasion. I did have slight redness on my cheeks and forehead after removing the peel. My face slightly tingled after washing but there was no other bad reaction.

I followed up with Juice Beauty's Hydrating Mist, applying 2-3 sprays on my face and neck area. The spray was cool and soothing, immediately relieving and removing any tingling.

The Results: Younger and Firmer Looking Skin
I noticed positive results within minutes. My skin was firmer and toned. I told a friend that I looked like a 18-year-old. My skin was beautifully bright and my skin tone was even. Juice Beauty's Green Apple Peel delivered every promise made on the package. I noticed that my face was soft and moisturized. There was no dryness or need to apply any other beauty product.

Tips and Recommendations
I would recommend Juice Beauty Green Apple Peel to women in their late 20s and up, especially if they are noticing skin cell damage. The peel definitely made a difference in my skin tone and appearance. The formula is sensitive, so it would be a good choice for most skin types. I would recommend it to women looking to remove discoloration, uneven spots or anyone wishing to exfoliate their skin and remove dead skin cells. I would not recommend it to pregnant women, as the product does contain hydroxy acid and penetrates into skin. New moms would benefit from Juice Beauty's Green Apple Peel, especially since pregnancy changes skin appearance. I would just advise that you pamper yourself after you have given birth.

I had no negative reactions to the facial peel but my skin is used to chemical treatments. My mom on the other hand experiences reactions, irritation and slight burning when using chemical treatments on her face. I would recommend that you test your skin before applying the product all over your face. Also, allow your skin to rest and relax after treatment before heading outdoors. Your face might have slight redness to it, so do not head outdoors moments after using Juice Beauty's Green Apple Peel.

I stopped using my micro-dermabrasion treatment in order to start using the facial peel. I would recommend that you use only a facial cleanser and no harsh exfoliating products when using this peel. Too much skin cell change and stripping can be harsh to your face.

The instructions on Juice Beauty's Green Apple Peel recommend that the product be used once weekly. I am not sure if that much would be necessary, especially if you have strict cleansing, exfoliating and moisturizing skin regimen. Wearing sunscreen daily will also protect your skin from spots and damage, so you may not need to use Juice Beauty Green Apple Peel as often. Using the organic facial peel less often will make the product last a little longer.

Juice Beauty Hydrating Mist can be used as many times as you'd like. It is a great product to take on a trip and keep your skin moisturized while traveling. I would suggest spraying no more than twice with each application. Rub gently any excess over your face and allow it a few seconds to dry. You will notice that this mist soaks into skin within seconds, but there is no need to apply lotion or any other moisturizer over it. You can apply sunscreen, especially if you are going outdoors.

Juice Beauty Green Apple Peel retails around $45 and Hydrating Mist sells for around $22. Both beauty products are made with certified organic ingredients such as antioxidant-rich juices and vitamins.
