Hi guys,
I just bought the Green Apple peel.....hoping I will love it! I have very fair skin, combo-oily, acne prone, with alot of little red mark from recent and old acne. I have heard miraculous things about the effects on scars and acne. I am always a skeptic, but I'm also always trying to find a better way to clear skin without having complete laser therapy.
I am not asking for a miracle, just something that might give me skin that I can at least live with....do yout think this will do the trick?
I have tried soooooo many products with these same claims, I can only hope this one delivers! |

we have the same skin and I LOVE JB Green Apple Peel. I just used it last night before I went out and I love what it does to my skin. I will repurchase and I cant say that about many masks. I hope you enjoy it too! |

Thanx Olivia! I like to hear good things, especially after I splurge
I hope it work too! Otherwise, I may be forced to make a trip to a derms office. The acne is pretty much under control, just one or two every once in a while....but I have soooo many scars on my face. I refuse to leave the house without my makeup on. I have been doing this so long, I don't even remember what it would feel like going out to get the mail sans-makeup.
Even during (and after) the births of my two little ones, I kept makeup on my face, knowing there would be pictures!!! And for me to care about that while in labor.....well you get the picture |

I love this mask as well. I'm on my third jar and it's still working just as good as it did in the beginning! |

I've got a sample size, and I'm so glad I didn't spend money on a full size product because it did nothing to me. So, I think it's better to get the sample first. |

I was expecting more from the apple peel because of all the raves. It is fairly effective, although not miraculous in my experience. However, I think you can get good results over time with weekly use.
If you want to try it, you can ask for a sample at Sephora. My sample lasted about 3 applications. The sephora guy gave me a sample of both regular strength and sensitive skin. |

I have really bad acne scars too...i also love Bliss Liver Spot Peel. It has really lightened my scars...it involves a lot of peeling and general bad skin days for the results to really be visible but in the long run it is worth it. Also I just repurchased BE foundation and it has also helped with the acne. I know it sounds terrible but I dab some on my zits before I go to bed and it seems to kinda shrink them or dry them out so I feel better having "makeup" on...its kinda like treatment too! Ha~ |

chellsta - There was some discussion on this a while ago, so you might want to do a search. If I recall, everyone determined that the JO product is not quite as effective as the JB product. HTH! |

Yup, Juice Beauty Green Apple Peel is a keeper! I use the "full strength" and it really removes the dead skin. Then, when I put my foundation on, it gives such a nice finish! |

Hi guys! Thanx for responding. I still haven't received it yet, but I will definately keep you guys posted.
Oh, and I re-read my original post. Maybe asking for skin I can at least live with would be asking for a miracle..... |

I got the same message. Looks like we'll have to wait 2 weeks. |

I bought mine because of the rave reviews and have only used it about 3-4 times. It stings, my face goes really pink and blotchy.
Should I stick with it though? |
