The Micro-delivery By Philosophy Review | In-Home Micro-dermabrasion Peel Resurfaces & Replenishes Skin

Saturday, September 11th, 2010

The Micro-delivery By PhilosophyPhilosophy have created an at home micro-dermadrasion peel. Micro-dermabrasion is usually something you would go to your beautician for.

What is Micro-dermabrasion?

It is a facial exfoliation procedure in which the top layer of skin is abraded away with ultra fine crystals of aluminum oxide or other ingredients. This process improves and smooths skin surface and can minimize imperfections, like blemishes, fine lines, and signs of sun damage.

What is a Micro-delivery peel?

It is similar to micro-dermabrasion in that it resurfaces the skin, it is just achieved using a peel with crystals and a activator gel rather than just dry crystals. Micro-delivery peel is also designed to replenish the skin with vitamin c, says Philosophy.

Philosophy's Clinical Results

Philosophy apparently carried out clinical trials and its results show that after just one micro-delivery peel, 82% of respondents agreed their skin appeared to be resurfaced; 65% of respondents agreed their skin felt brand new; 80% said their skin felt smoother and more refined.

Users Conclusions

Pros

  • Leaves skin feeling clean
  • Face feels baby soft
  • Natural glow
  • Non irritating
  • Exfoliates
  • Instant results

Cons

  • possibly cause a breakout. (only a couple of users have had this reaction)

Ingredients

Peptide/vitamin c crystals: peg-6, sodium bicarbonate, oleth-20, glyceryl stearate se, silica, magnesium ascorbyl phosphate, retinyl palmitate, ethylhexyl palmitate, citrus aurantium dulcis (orange) oil, tocopheryl acetate, sorbitan isostearate, tribehenin, palmitoyl, oligopeptide, isopropylparaben, isobutylparaben, butylparaben, methylparaben, propylparaben, beta-caroteneactivation gel: water (aqua), lactic acid, hydroxyethylcellulose, linoleamidopropyl pg-dimonium chloride phosphate, propylene glycol, salicylic acid, diazolidinyl urea, polyquaternium 10, methylparaben, propylparaben.

Directions

First apply vitamin c crystals to a clean dry face. Gently massage using circular motions to buff away dead, dry skin cells for thirty to sixty seconds; and then leave on skin for one to three minutes. Apply a thin layer of activator gel over crystals. After applying activator gel, a warming sensation and foam will appear. Leave on for one minute and then rinse.

To Sum Up

Micro-delivery peel seems like a superior product. Nearly everyone who has tried it found it transformed their skin from dry and rough, to smooth and soft.

I think if you are considering using this peel you should check ingredients to make sure your skin will be able to tolerate the content. As a couple of patrons found it made them breakout shortly after use.

The price is quite reasonable at $40 for a 2pc 1oz set or $65 for a 2oz. If you went to the spa for a micro peel it would cost over twice as much for one treatment, where as you can do this your self when ever.
