"i was applying it nightly at first and realized it was causing my skin to peel a lot. switched to using it every 3-4 nights and exfoliated my skin every morning. after about a month i was able to put it on every night with no peeling issues. i also started only putting it on my problem areas (acne scars) rather than my whole face. flash forward 3 months later from my first night using it and my skin looks great. you have to be patient and find a regime that works for you. yes, your skin will peel at first..but you can also use it sparingly so your skin gets used to it. you don&#039;t have to torture yourself and use it every night at first. start slow but keep a schedule. i put it on once a week now. i&#039;m happy i stuck with it!"
