If you use this product how often do you use it?  It is pretty strong but I do like it.  I aim for every other day.  Is daily too much?

I have used it and do like it. I used it 1 or 2 times a week. I think Dmitri says he uses it daily on his skin. I guess if your skin can take it, you can use it daily. Just use a very light touch and don't scrub too hard. My skin is slightly sensitive. I'd start out once a week.

I was not thrilled with it, but I did use the entire jar, once a week, but you can do twice if you want.

@bargainsgirl  - When I used DermaPeel, I used it twice a week.

Tina (Dimitri's sister) says she uses it daily.  A few years ago, some of us did a 30 Day Challenge. It's all about what your skin can handle, but your every other day schedule is probably good.  I did the 30 Day Challenge and also used the DermAppeal for awhile, but I ended up collecting more jars and tubes than I ever used up.  The fumes were unpleasant.

The odor is quite strong but not a bad smell.  I use it in the shower so it goes on a wet face which dilutes it a bit.  Seems to work fine that way.

Great stuff, just don’t get it in your eyes! Too much menthol. I would use it every other day if it weren’t so strong smelling and irritating to the eyes. Twice a week is probably good for most. I use it on my face, but it is also a great exfoliant for the neck, chest and hands in the shower. The DermaPeel for the body is good, too, if you have extra money to spend. I ❤️ Dimitri and don’t look my age thanks to him.

@bargainsgirl   Like a menthol or peppermint or something like that.  It is strong.  In fact, it usually stings my eyes when I use it on my face.  That said, I DO like the product A LOT.

The strong menthol irritated my lungs and I felt the peel left a film on my face. A large component of it is just baking soda.
