Exfoliation is one of the most helpful procedures for the skin. You can do it yourself. We'll show you how to perform a Hollywood peeling at home.

Autumn is the ideal season for peeling. You don't have to visit a salon to rejuvenate your skin. You can perform a nice peeling on your own and save a lot of money. Skin renewal at home is inexpensive and produces results that are equivalent to those obtained through expert procedures. Do you not believe me? And what do you believe decreased a woman's freckles and age spots in the previous century, when cosmetology had not yet reached such heights? In addition to egg white, soda, and lemon juice, the women' armoury included even more daring techniques. The young girls were well-versed in peeling. This was known as skin peeling back then.

Hollywood peeling

It is not known for certain whether the beautiful women of the Hollywood Hills use this technique to care for themselves, but we can guarantee that this is an effective way to make the skin glowing and clear. Hollywood peeling, like any other, causes intense and accelerated death of the cells of the stratum corneum, which are then rejected. Thanks to active exfoliation, the skin of the face is renewed, becomes fresher, acquires a delicate pink tint, gets rid of enlarged pores, comedones and wrinkles. Skin relief is smoothed out.

Hollywood peeling is an ideal solution for oily and combination skin types. This procedure normalizes the activity of the sebaceous glands and has a drying effect.

You should not peel your skin at home if it is dry, sensitive, thin, and has a tendency to develop allergic reactions. It is better to consult a specialist if you have serious skin problems. For example, if there is pronounced pigmentation, only a beautician will select the appropriate type of peeling for you. An incorrectly chosen peeling technique can provoke an increased formation of pigment and its deposition in the epidermis.

Contraindications to facial skin peeling are also increased hair growth, pustular diseases, dermatological diseases.

Test for possible allergic reactions before peeling. Apply a couple of drops of the composition to the inner surface of the elbow joint or the skin behind the ear. If irritation, itching and other signs of an allergic reaction do not appear on the skin after 15-20 minutes, the drug can be applied to the skin.

How to peel

For the exfoliation procedure, you will need calcium chloride (5%). This is a drug in ampoules. In medicine, it is used for bleeding, allergic diseases, labor disorders, poisoning with magnesium salts, and inflammatory processes. Moreover, calcium chloride is an excellent chemical peeling. After application to the skin, the composition causes microtrauma, and then intense peeling. You can buy calcium chloride at any pharmacy.

Exfoliation of the facial skin with calcium chloride is a course of procedures. To obtain a pronounced effect, it is recommended to carry out at least 3-4 sessions. You need to peel once a week.

In addition to the drug itself, you will need baby soap, cotton pads, and a moisturizer with a soothing effect on the skin. Wash your hands thoroughly before the procedure.

  • Thoroughly cleanse your face from makeup, impurities and grease.
  • Soak a cotton swab with calcium chloride and treat your face. After the first coat has dried, apply the second. You will need at least 3 - 4 layers.
  • Apply lather to your face. At this stage, flakes will form on the skin.
  • Rinse off the composition from your skin with cool water and apply a soothing cream to your face.

The appearance of a slight burning sensation during the procedure should not bother you - this is normal. But if you feel itching, spots have appeared on the skin, this is already an allergic reaction. In this case, it is better to refuse peeling of the skin with the help of calcium chloride.
