Do you already have your favorite facial peel? Fantastic! Then you surely know that this is one of those products that can really... transform the look of our skin. Regular exfoliation helps remove dead skin cells, making the complexion smoother, more radiant, and perfectly prepared to absorb active ingredients from the next skincare products. However, you must remember that the effectiveness of this product will largely depend on how well it is matched to your skin type.
In our online store Ladymakeup, you can choose from different types of peels — from gentle enzymatic formulas to more intensive acid and mechanical peels. Check out the specific products we have prepared for you and choose those that will help you effectively improve skin texture, support its regeneration, and simply give you a healthy yet fresh look.
Why is it worth reaching for a face peel regularly?
Yes, a peel is a very important element of a conscious skincare routine. Used regularly (but not in daily care), it can significantly improve the condition of the skin and affect its appearance. However, you must know that the action of such cosmetics is not limited to exfoliation alone! See how peels support the functioning of your complexion and why they make every serum, cream, or mask applied afterward work better. Peels:
provide thorough cleansing of the epidermis surface, removing impurities accumulated on the skin and cosmetic residue,
unclog pores, which helps reduce the formation of imperfections,
regulate sebum production, which is especially important for oily and combination skin,
reduce the visibility of pores, making the complexion look more even,
smooth the skin, improve its softness and overall appearance.
A huge advantage of peels is that they can be successfully matched to a specific skin type. Regardless of whether you have sensitive, problematic, or excessively dry skin, you are sure to find a product with us that will suit your individual needs. Regular use of peels brings a range of benefits for both
the health and appearance of the skin.
What else does regular use of peels provide?
Systematic exfoliation is not only a matter of aesthetics, but also real support for the natural processes that take place in our skin every day. You should know that these products are extremely effective at stimulating regeneration. Exfoliation stimulates the skin’s natural renewal processes, making it firmer and more regenerated.
Many peels can even effectively brighten various types of discoloration, even out skin tone, and restore its natural glow. If recently you have noticed that your epidermis has become gray and looks very tired, maybe... you haven’t exfoliated in a long time?
At the same time, it is worth mentioning that many women wonder how often to use a face peel? This is a very individual matter, but most often 1-2 times a week is recommended as the optimal frequency. To make sure that the peel you choose works as well as it should, observe your skin’s reaction after use. All the products we offer can be successfully used throughout the year. However, remember how important daily sun protection is. Especially after exfoliation, when our skin becomes more sensitive to the sun.
How to match a peel to your skin type?
We have already drawn your attention to the fact that choosing the right facial peel is very important. After all, every skin is different, and therefore — different ingredients may work better on it. Sensitive skin will react well to one type of exfoliation, combination skin to another, and normal skin to yet another. In our store you will find many types of peels. From those that work extremely gently, to options that intensively exfoliate dead cells and do a very good job of smoothing the skin’s surface. If you are wondering which facial peel to choose, consider not only the effect you want to achieve, but also how your complexion reacts to different active ingredients.
Enzymatic peels
First up are enzymatic peels, which are an absolutely excellent choice for sensitive, dry and irritation-prone skin. They also work great for couperose and acne-prone skin with active breakouts. Their action is based on plant enzymes that dissolve dead skin cells without the need to rub the skin.
Products of this type provide a gentle exfoliating effect, while not causing irritation or damaging the skin’s natural protective barrier. Depending on the cosmetic you choose, the ingredients may include papain, bromelain, or various fruit-derived enzymes. In addition to exfoliating ingredients, these products are often supplemented with supporting ingredients designed, for example, to effectively protect the skin against free radicals, nourish it, or soothe it. Enzymatic peels are primarily recommended for those who want to deeply, yet still gently, cleanse their skin. A huge advantage of enzymatic peels is that they are extremely safe for everyday use, as they do not cause irritation or mechanical skin damage.
Mechanical peels
The second option you can choose is equally popular mechanical peels. Designed for people who tolerate contact with noticeable abrasive particles well. Mechanical peels work especially well on normal and combination skin. They are recommended for thick and rough skin that needs intensive smoothing, pore cleansing and improved circulation. At the same time, such products are not suitable for sensitive, couperose or acne-prone skin, as they may lead to excessive irritation!
We can distinguish fine-grained peels and coarse-grained peels. This term refers, of course, to the different particle size of the abrasive substances that, depending on the product, are placed in a gel, cream or more oily base. The most commonly used abrasive ingredients include ground seeds and nuts, such as apricot kernels, peach kernels and walnuts. Natural particles of sugar, salt and ground coffee are also very often used. In addition, corundum, clays and various ground herbs. Here too, the exfoliating action is very often enriched with more soothing, nourishing and moisturizing ingredients.
Acid/chemical peels
Finally, chemical peels, also referred to as acid peels. As the name suggests, their innovative formulas are based primarily on the use of AHA, BHA and PHA acids. In these facial peels you may find glycolic acid, lactic acid, mandelic acid, salicylic acid, or azelaic acid. Very often also lactobionic acid and additional active ingredients that help reduce discoloration and care for a moisturized yet radiant complexion. Acid peels are absolutely ideal for people with acne-prone, oily, but also mature skin! It is worth emphasizing that many of the listed ingredients are excellent at stimulating collagen production, smoothing fine lines, and effectively brightening sun spots.
Here, it is very important to choose a peel whose composition matches what your skin needs at the moment. Is it lacking radiance? Or maybe it needs strong smoothing?

How to care for your skin after using a face peel?
Many women do not know which cosmetic to reach for after using a peel in their further skincare routine. It depends! In fact, you can use a peel and then simply choose a cream that is suited to your skin type.
It is, however, wonderful to combine the action of a peel with a mask or a concentrated serum. Why? In this way you will apply even more beneficial ingredients and thus improve the appearance and tone of the skin. And after using a stronger or gentler peel formula, the complexion is better able to absorb active ingredients, so this is the perfect moment for a more elaborate skincare routine!
