 Maybe if we all bombard EDS with these email requests, they will just have to comply! |

I can't wait to try my blemish serum and antiox serum!!! They just arrived. However, I am hesitant to use them until I can transfer them in Mini vials (so that i don't open them often, yeah I know regardless they oxidize!) I wish I could get mini vial samples from EDS because I re-use them!!  |

I used the Green Apple Peel Sensitive (was able to get a sample at a good price) for the first time last night. I saw some improvement in my acne scarring but then I put on the Juice Organics (from CVS) antioxidant serum and by mourning WOW! I'm so glad I found this web site.
I've only had acne (and only on my chin) since I had my children 5 years ago. I started using Arbonne's NutriminC line and the acne cleared but the scarring was still there after 5 years of abuse.
I started using Pure Luxe cosmetics (cream to powder foundation) after reading reviews on here and it helped to conceal it because it actually stayed put all day but the peel and serum rocks for diminishing the scars.
Thanks |

| I too have had GREAT results for scars. I had this one bright, BRIGHT red mark on my cheek leftover from a really bad break out months ago. I'm so pale and this thing was so red, even when I caked on concealer, you could still see it from a mile away. So frustrating! But now, after a couple months of regularly using the Green Apple Peel and the Blemish Serum (I dab the serum on the mark--- couldn't hurt, right?), my marks have faded to the point where some days I don't even wear make up, because my skin tone is so even. Whew! |

| Would it be a bad idea to try the Green Apple Peel if I'm using products with Hydroquinone? |

| I really like the Juice Beauty cleansing milk. I have normal/dry/sensitive skin and this just cleans the skin nicely without leaving a film on it. I have not had any breakouts from using this. I've also tried the Green Apple Peel for sensitive skin and it is wonderful. It smells great and it works. I'm looking forward to trying more Juice products. |

I unfortunately haven't had as much luck with the green apple peel & the blemish clearing serum like everyone else. They don't seem to be doing anything for my skin  I quite like the exfoliating cleanser, even though it could be a bit more grainy & it seems to leave greasy film on my skin. But it still left my skin feeling really soft & smooth. I also like the lip plumper just as a balm/gloss as it doesn't actually plump my lips at all, but it does hydrate well. |

Geeze, I'm seriously going broke since I've joined this site 2 days ago 
Since joining, I've purchased JM Age Intervention Eyelash grower, HA pills with Biocell, oils and creams to make a homemade mask for the hair, and a few others I cannot seem to recall at the moment, and now this? haha!
In all seriousness now, I'm going to get the Green Apple Peel, but I'm debating on which serum to combine it with. Is the Juice Beauty Antioxidant Serum or the Juice Beauty Green Apple Antioxident Serum better. Can someone actually tell me the difference in use for these? |

ariesxtreme - since you've already spent quite a bit, you could try Juice Organics brand instead. It's supposed to be pretty much the same product as it's made by Juice Beauty. They even have trial kits at CVS so that would be a good start to see if you like their products.
By the way, I didn't know they had more than one antioxidant serum. |

| ariesxtreme-- the general consensus seems to be that the Juice Organics Antioxidant serum sold at CVS works as well as its more expensive sister the one from Juice Beauty, so I would definitely recommend looking into it. On the other hand, I've heard that the JO Apple Peel is NOWHERE near as effective as the Juice Beauty one, so I would definitely say to go ahead and get the JB Apple Peel no matter what--- it's a must-have in my cosmetics cabinet. HTH! |

| Thanks Liz! I was pretty sure about both of those, but I didn't want to write it since I wasn't sure. I've only tried the antioxidant serum (trial size) and it didn't blow my dress up, so I never purchased it. I would still like to try the JB peel at some point, but I've got WAY too many products in my arsenal as it is for now. |

Yeah they seem to have two, but will take the advice and maybe just go to the local CVS and and get that serum and buy the Apple Green Peel, thanks girls! |

For those of you using the peel how often do you do it? The directions say once a week, but it doesn't seem that strong enough and I might be able to pull off twice a week.
also can you harm your skin if you do it too often? |

| if I am not mistaken the serums at cvs do not contain the dmea or the CoQ10 or the alpha lipoic acide, so they def would not be the same without those ingredients (I am recalling jb's response to email asking same). I've been using the juice green apple serum with all above ingredients and they are great. Not sure if the regular version has those in it, so that might be the difference. |

I have the sensitive one and usually use it once or twice a week. I also sometimes do an extra spot treatment on blemishes or scars on another day instead of giving myself a full face treatment. I've been using it for about a month now and haven't had any irritation from over use so I don't think I'm doing any damage by using it more often than the suggested one time a week. Maybe I'd have more of an adverse effect if I used the regular strength peel. I'm also interseted in finding out how often others use it. |

I've been using the regular one twice a week, but I'm sure I'll go down to just once a week after a while, or maybe just spot treat.
I've used the Juice Beauty Peel and the Juice Organics one, and I can not tell the difference between the two in terms of results or anything else actually. |

| My skin is healing from previous hormonal break-out havoc + purging and at first when I got GAP I thought it was good but no WOW - my skin ALWAYS felt baby butt smooth afterward and any flakes would just roll off with my wash cloth. But the more I use it now - I use it regularly every othre day (I use the regular strength) and I feel I can't live without it anymore. With my healing skin everything is drying up and I need all the super exfoliation or else those dried up skins may once again congest my pores. I use ISC Active Serum every night, Microfoliant every morning and this every other day and NO it has NOT been over-exfoliating for my skin because I'm just so happy it seems to be working - slowly but yes it's working and my skin is healing very nicely. It's a combination but I feel my skin is much better since I've increased my usage of my GAP and I can't ever imagine just using it only once a week anymore. I don't tingle from it or get red anymore either and I leave it for a good 30 minutes each time. Usually I follow with a clay mask before or after my peel when necessary - works great! |

| a question to all, does the green apple peel have to be applied all over the face or just locally where you have acne marks? |

You can apply it all over your face (avoiding the eye area). |
