I quit using the scrubs because of broken capillaries on my face.

I'm a "scrub" junkie. I have a scrub for every day of the week. However, recently, I had the thought that IF I "peeled" instead, I wouldn't need to scrub at all. {#emotions_dlg.confused1}

Is that Y you "quit using scrubs" ..?

I quit using scrubs after my rosacea flared big time. I haven't had an issue w/enzyme peels.

I quit using scrubs because I now have to be careful to not create broken capillaries and the scrubs were not working very well. I felt like they were just excessive pressure and pulling & tugging on my skin. Using the Glycolic peel works much better!! I love the results. After I let the peel dry/absorbs (sometimes I wait an hour) then I apply whatever products I think my skin needs. I don't need scrubs anymore.
