What is the difference between APEEL DAILY, APEEL CORRECT and APEEL LIGHT NIGHT
APEEL DAILY is applied in the same method as APEEL CORRECT when you first start out. The name daily means that the skin will peel a bit each day rather inconspicuously.

APEEL CORRECT is applied as directed and produces a peel in about 48-72 hours usually when you wake up or go to bed after a shower you notice that the skin is lifting. Most of it glides off with your fingertips or a compress with warm water.

APEEL LIGHT/NIGHT is a leave on treatment designed to be worn at bedtime. This is good for first time peelers or those that are on maintenance.

How do they differ from TCA COMPLEX?
TCA Complex is a rapid exfoliant that abrades the topmost layer of skin almost on contact and peels within 72 hours . It can be controlled in application from a single swipe up to a several minute layering. It is recommended for all skin types with best success on more oily skin that is seeking scar reduction and surface imperfections such as pores or hyper pigmentation.

I have read about HA SOY LIFT on message boards and eBay. Is it really as good as they say it is?
No. It is BETTER! This product incorporates the power of antioxidants with the power to plump and smooth. It took a long time to come up with a compound that was affordable. One single ingredient in this product cost thousands per kilo and it contains 5 active ingredients.

I compare this product to creams that are sold in Sweden for $1200 per oz. The technology isn't new but the cross combination is. I recommend this to any woman or man over 25. Mandatory for my sisters 40-55!

Quite simply: It changes the texture and elasticity of the skin. It is actual skin technology. Using this after a peel is twice as good! It can be used above and below the eye and on the chest and entire body. I just received a letter from a gal who applys it overtop of her powder eyeshadow. The next day I did it myself and WOW she really invented a new method of application! I was astonished how smooth my lids were all day long!  I cannot say enough about it!

Do you send out a treatment plan with my order?
I send out a User Guide that tells you what each item does basically. I also offer a starting guide to show you how to do one application. Based on that 1 treatment you will adjust your future treatments using more or less or the same amount. Its very simple to use. You must read the guide twice to fully absorb it and never share you final application method with anyone because nobody uses this line the exact same way! I mean SURE you can tell anyone you want, but please remind them that you worked hard to devise this plan and encourage them to start off slow and increase their dosage the exact same way you did!

You will see results after 1 treatment. Most scars and lines are up to 4 or 5 micron deep. One peel usually will uncover  .02+.05 micron of skin. For every 2-55 successful peels you will abrade 1 full micron (factoring back in new skincell turnover where your skin actually regrows).

TCA Latte is my very special booster peel. You can use it alone or expedite any peel in my line without any fear or concern of going too far. Be careful using it after APEEL CORRECT because APEEL usually has a second peel lurking right behind the first one! Applying TCA LATTE too soon would cause you to peel several times and maybe even sting heavily on application. This is a sign that your skin growth is too immature to withstand LATTE and you would simply use a cold cloth and gently wipe it off.  Even if you go too far using both of these products  you will land upright, on your feet with beautiful skin. I"m just trying to spare you any uncomfortable moments!

I have very sensitive skin. Can I do A Peel?
Many people consider their skin to be sensitive when it is usually an imbalance that is continually altering their cellular metabolism. My recommendation is to start slow and try to build up the skins naturally occurring DNA by using Royal Jelly in compress form as often as possible. After 1 full skin cycle you will see and feel a difference in the skins tone and texture. Next you can move on to some rapid exfoliation. Apeel Light/Night or Apeel Daily.

Can I use Hyaluronic Protein during the day and at night?
You can use HA Protein any time you want. I do encourage you to use it in compress form, as directed. This provides maximum penetration and allows the protein to absorb 1-2 micron below the stratum level. Due to the potency of HA PROTEIN you may have to add a few drops of water for daily wear under makeup.

I'm in my 40's and I cannot stand to look in the mirror anymore! Any help for me?
Don't buy up a lot of items at one time. You won't be able to use them all at one time. It can also be overwhelming to have 6 bottles at one time.

I'd rather you got 1 or 2 products and let me prove this method of anti aging to you over the next few weeks. Start with a Apeel Correct Resurfacing. Your choice if you want to do a kit or not. I recommend a kit that has Hyaluronic Protein. I also recommend HA SOY LIFT. Rest assured if you buy only 1 of these two, you will receive a free sample of the other one with your purchase.

I'm acne prone and oily with pigment problems too. What is my first step?
First and foremost: If your acne has not been diagnosed by a physician, it is my recommendation to seek a hands on consultation to make sure that you and your skin tissue are healthy. Many times I see clients who have allergies or medications that are inhibiting their cellular metabolism. Sometimes very small adjustments need to be made in order to stop the stages of acne from occurring.

Back to Top

I have used every acne product on the market without any success. What can I use?
I suggest that you start with ROYAL JELLY. This is your first step towards speeding up the rate at which your skin metabolises bacteria. Oil is not your enemy. Almost every acne product on the market addresses the symptom of acne, not the problem. Stopping the flow of oil to your skin leaves your skin malnourished, dehydrated and chemically dependent. This is how acne marks are formed. Skin that turns purple or red after an outbreak of acne is from the lack of protein within the epidermis/stratum corneum lining. By using acne creams like benzoyl peroxide you are inhibiting the skin to repair itself. Face it, once a pimple pops you are left with a sore that requires scar tissue repair, collagen, elastin, melanin etc. Without these reparative proteins your skin is healing on its own which is why the scar is translucent and becomes atrophic. Most skin can recover from a pimple without pocking unless the body has been stripped of its natural occurring protein. This also means you begin to wrinkle and get lines even at 20 years of age the skin will wrinkle.

Oil is essential in transporting the correct antibodies to fight off bacteria infected sebum. The more you use chemicals to stop the oil, the harder your skin will work to produce it which accelerates your outbreaks. I call this man-made acne because you are causing about 90% of the trauma by over washing the skin or treating it with medications.

Back to Top

What can I do about my acne right now?
The first thing I do to anyone with acne is forbid them from any facial skin washing for 1-2 weeks. No soaps no cleansers no lotions no potions. This allows the skin to build up natural protein and antibodies. Facial cleansing is limited to warm and cool wet wash clothes and a mild solution of home-made salt water. You can mix ½ tspn of table salt to 1 cup of hot water. Dissolve. Soak a clean wash cloth in solution and hold it to the effected areas 1 time each night at bedtime. Salt is a bio identical component that skin tissue recognizes. It is also a natural antibiotic that will not interrupt the process of metabolism. This is a perfect pre treatment to do prior to using your Perfect Complexion Royal Jelly and APEEL light or Daily.

Remember: Your skin is an organ. It cannot move without hydration. Interrupting this natural process will lead to long term skin issues from rapid aging and premature wrinkles to skin cancer.

Once your skin begins to function on its own without the help of chemical oil reducers, you will be able to step up your treatment to incorporate a Peel once per month to address scar reduction.

Back to Top

Is TCA CLEANSER and ALOE CLEANSER the same thing?
Yes. TCA Cleanser is formatted with concentrated levels of Aloe Barbadensis. It is a skin treatment that can be used daily or twice per week and should never be used with a peel or resurfacing product.

Back to Top

Should I use Salicylic Acid, Lactic or Glycolic?
Only use Alpha hydroxy or Beta hydroxy if you have used them with reasonable success. I do not recommend these acids for anyone seeking improvement for aging, scaring or acne for the first time. I feel a responsibility to my customers and salons that offer AHA/BHA service, to provide them with the purist medical grade peel on the market. Do not use these acids with TCA or Apeel products.

Back to Top

Can I use my night cream and other products?
My answer is no I'm afraid. With so many products out there being sold I have no way to advise proper integration into this line. Most every night cream or day cream on the market is loaded with preservatives and parabens.

This is the industries way of keeping us chemically addictive to their lotions and potions that claim to be anti aging. In actuality they are compounded with the smallest amount of active ingredient in order to give us a glimmer of hope and to keep repeat sales coming in. I tell my clients to try it my way for 30 days. If they still feel like they need to incorporate cream into their regime, then please feel free. I don't want you to feel like you have purchased products that will get thrown away. Just put them away for a few weeks.

Algae Extract and Mugwort Extract (Artemisia Vulgaris): Patented complex of a proprietary algae rich in amino acids and polypeptides combined with Mugwort. Reduces inflammation, redness and stinging of sensitive or irritated skin. Inhibits Prostaglandine release in the inflammation cascade. A patented extraction and manufacturing process yields a specific polysaccharide that calms irritation and promotes healing.

Aloe Vera: Aloe, native to Africa, is also known as the "medicine plant." Extensive research since the 1930's have shown that Aloe Vera has a dramatic ability to heal wounds and burns at a rapid rate. Its healing power comes from increasing the availability of oxygen to the skin and by increasing the synthesis and strength of tissue. Its dramatic healing properties are due to its amino acids, the building blocks for the formation of new cells. Aloe reduces inflammation, swelling, redness and itching. Its moisturizing activity enables water retention at the epidermis level, due to presence of polysaccharides and mucilages.

Alpha Lipoic Acid: It is an essential component of the energy-producing part of a cell called the mitochondria. It increases the cell's energy production, which allows the cell to take in more nutrients, remove wastes and replace damaged components. It is a powerful water-soluble and oil-soluble antioxidant that fights free radicals within the cell, as well as on the outer cell membrane. No other antioxidant can do this. It increases the effects of antioxidants Vitamins E and C. It is also a powerful anti-inflammatory. It prevents the cell from producing the pro-inflammatory chemicals called cytokines that damage the cell and accelerate aging.

Arctostaphyios Uva Ursi Leaf Extract (Arbutin): Derived from the Arctostaphylos Uva Ursi plant, it contains an active substance known as Arbutin. This active is a natural hydroquinone sugar complex that stops the production of melanin by suppressing tyrosinase, the enzyme that converts tyrosine into melanin in the skin. Clinical studies have confirmed its ability to inhibit melanin synthesis, in vitro and ex vivo.

Arnica: A perennial mountain plant used since the Middle Ages against contusions and bruises. It is known for its regenerating and healing properties. It also stimulates blood circulation and aids in the promotion of new tissue growth. It has anti-inflammatory and antibacterial qualities that reduce swelling and pain, improving wound healing.

Beta Glucan: Immune-stimulating, it enhances the skin's natural defense mechanism and protects against invasion by toxic agents such as pollution. A powerful bio-active wound-healer that causes new tissue to be generated to replace damaged tissue. Excellent moisture-binding properties form a thin cohesive film that protects against transepidermal water loss. This increases skin firmness and causes a flattening out of fine lines and reduces rough texture. Protects against UVA oxidative stress, which is damaging because it reduces the number of antioxidant molecules in the skin.

Bilberry: Closely related to American blueberry, cranberry, and huckleberry fruits. It contains Lactic Acid, an alpha hydroxy acid that dissolves the lipid bonds between skin cells. This exfoliation helps to reduce pigment buildup in the stratum corneum and stimulate cellular renewal. Leaves the skin smooth and soft.

Ceramides and Soybean Extract: Biomimetic lipid matrix that repairs and maintains the functionality of the skin's epidermal lipid moisture barrier. Reverses transepidermal water loss, dehydration and dryness - which lead to skin sensitivity. Increases skin firmness and elasticity.
Ceramides are a key ingredient of the stratum corneum barrier lipids, along with cholesterol and essential fatty acids. They influence the water holding capacity of the skin and also provide structural integrity via the formation of a molecular scaffolding called the lamellar bilayer. In a compromised barrier and in aging skin, there is a loss in ceramide levels that causes skin permeability (penetration of irritants) and dryness of the skin. When this occurs, there is a decrease in barrier function and the water binding capacity of the stratum corneum. Similar conditions can be brought on in any skin type at almost any age by stress, sunlight, surfactants, low humidity conditions, etc.

Chamomile: The flowers of chamomile provide volatile oils containing alpha-bisabolol and matricin (usually converted to chamazulene), as well as bioflavonoids that contribute to chamomile's renowned ability to soothe skin sensitivity and inflammation. Called the "Physician of Plants," it accelerates healing and diminishes discomfort of skin allergies, including redness, itching and pain. Its anti-inflammatory property is especially beneficial for skin sensitivity, including inflamed acne.

Citrus Bioflavonoids: Substances that occur naturally in the pulp and peel of citrus fruits. Bioflavonoids are important for several reasons. First, they work synergistically with vitamin C to protect and preserve the structure of the capillary blood vessels and promote better circulation. Secondly, studies show they enhance vitamin C absorption and help maintain collagen. They also inhibit enzymes associated with inflammation.

CoEnzyme Q10 (Ubiquinone): Found in every living cell and plays a critical role in the production of energy within the cell for building new cells and tissue. Clinical studies have shown its antioxidant property, protecting the cells membrane. CoQ10 protect keratinocytes against UVA oxidative DNA damage. It also protects against collagenase damage, safeguarding the natural firmness of the skin.

Collagen Growth Complex™: A cutting-edge patented compound that has shown to increase the synthesis of the dermal matrix. It is a peptide composed of amino acids that act as "feedback peptides," selected natural messengers that act specifically on the cells of the dermis, signaling them to synthesize connective tissue composed of collagen I, III, IV and polysaccharides (Glycosaminoglycans and Hyaluronic Acid). Improves the appearance of wrinkles and skin elasticity.

Comfrey: Comfrey has a long, consistent history of use as a topical agent for healing of wounds. Its remarkable power to heal tissue is due to its Allantoin content that aids in the regeneration of damaged skin by stimulating new tissue growth. As dehydrated skin is usually sensitized, this active will sooth and calm the skin.

Copper PCA: An oligo element with anti-inflammatory and sebo-regulating properties and a catalytic action in the keratinization process of cells. In normal skin, this process is completed in 8 to 12 hours whereas in deficient skin, the process may take up to 3 days.

Glycolic Acid: An Alpha Hydroxy Acid that diminishes corneocyte cohesion -- it dissolves the lipid bonds between the cells at the lower levels of the stratum corneum. Corneocyte cohesion refers to the intercellular cement or "glue-like" bonding between the cells. The most penetrating AHA, glycolic acid delivers the fastest results of smoothing and retexturizing the skin. It is an excellent adjunct for treating aging skin, acne and hyperpigmentation.

Gota Kola: Also known as Centella Asiatica. The plant is considered in Indian Pharmacopoeia as a "magic herb" with its healing property. Studies completed in the 1980's demonstrated that Gota Kola shortened the healing period for chronic wounds, prevented scarring and increased the tensile strength of the skin by stimulating collagen synthesis. Has a soothing action on skin inflammation and accelerates healing.

Grape Seed and Pine Bark: Flavonoids called proanthocyanidins that protect and strengthen fragile capillary walls. They are powerful antioxidants that inhibit skin-aging enzymes from breaking down collagen and elastin. They also prevent lipid peroxidation and protect against the hydroxyl radical, the most dangerous radical that destroys cell DNA.

Green Tea: Caffeine and other xanthines present in this extract have been shown to reduce skin irritation by suppressing inflammation and counteracting irritation. It greatly soothes and calms skin sensitivities. Polyphenols, also present in Green Tea, exhibit powerful antioxidant properties that scavenge lipid peroxidase radicals that attack cell membranes and lipids between skin cells where moisture-retention occurs. Extensive testing in Japan found that Green Tea inhibits the transport of mature melanosomes from melanocytes to keratinocytes, as well as inhibits tyrosinase activity.

Horse Chestnut: Traditionally, many of the aerial parts of the horse chestnut tree were used in medicinal preparations. Extracts of the seeds are high in the active constituent aescin, which has been shown to promote circulation through the veins. This has made both topical and internal horse chestnut very popular in Europe for the treatment of varicose veins. Aescin minimizes capillaries by reducing tiny openings in capillary walls that leads to increased capillary permeability and edema. It strengthens capillary walls that increase contraction to push the 'pooling blood' through the capillary, minimizing them. Horse Chestnut also possess anti-inflammatory properties and has been shown to reduce bruising and edema (swelling with fluid) following surgery or injury.

Horsetail: Strong astringent properties, it helps refine the pores. Rich in minerals, it also increases the skin's defense mechanism.

Clinically proven for its exceptional healing properties on irritated skin, dermatitis, burns and blemishes. Maintains moisture, softens the skin and builds up the skin's protective barrier. Rich in Vitamins A, E and F, it stimulates cellular regeneration.

Sodium Hyaluronate: Hyaluronic acid is naturally distributed throughout the human body where, among other noteworthy properties, it holds water in the intercellular matrix of dermal connective tissue and contributes to the elasticity of skin. However, as we age, the skin's hyaluronic acid content diminishes, resulting in a loss of elasticity in the skin that visibly manifests itself in wrinkles. When applied to the skin, Hyaluronic Acid forms a cohesive film in a manner similar to the way our own hyaluronic acid holds water in the intercellular matrix of dermal connective tissue. It is a strong humectant, holding 1800 times its weight in water. Because it is a large molecule, it does not penetrate deeply but its excellent water-binding ability gives suppleness and plasticity to the epidermis where dehydration occurs.

Sodium PCA: Exists naturally in the skin as a component of the natural moisturizing factor (NMF). Derived from amino acids, it is considered a high performance humectant due to its moisture-binding ability. Restores moisture, leaving the skin smooth and hydrated.

Time-released liposome, it increases oxygen uptake in cells, stimulating cellular respiration and renewal. Contains Superoxide Dismutase, a powerful free radical fighter that protects the skin's defense mechanism, protects against inflammation and cell energy.

Titanium Dioxide: Is a non-chemical sunscreen that remains on the skin's surface and scatters UV light, protecting from both UVA and UVB sun rays. Gentle to the skin, it does not cause sensitivity or irritation.



Vitamin C (L-Ascorbic Acid): Aids in the formation and maintenance of collagen, the protein "cement" that is formed with ascorbic acid as a required cofactor. Helps improve elasticity and firmness of the skin while diminishing fine lines and wrinkles for a more youthful appearance. An antioxidant, it helps prevent oxidation of water-soluble molecules that could otherwise create free radicals, which may generate cellular damage. Regenerates Vitamin E, reactivating its free radical scavenging abilities. Lightens pigmentation marks and prevents new melanin formation. Promotes a clear, more even skin tone.

Vitamin E: Also known as Tocopheryl Acetate and is considered the most important oil-soluble antioxidant as it protects the cell's membrane and intercellular lipids from free radical damage. Improves the skin's water-binding ability and prevents transepidermal water loss.

Vitamin K: Also known as Phytomenadione, it is a critical nutrient needed to aid in coagulation of the blood. It has shown to improve the appearance of distended capillaries and dark circles by reducing capillary fragility and strengthen capillaries to prevent leakage.

Willow Bark: From the bark of the Willow tree, it contains a very high level of Salicylic Acid, a Beta Hydroxy Acid that has excellent keratolytic activity - it helps dissolve the top layer of corneum cells. This exfoliation helps to expel follicular impactions and prevent formation of additional impactions. It helps lighten existing pigmentation. This cell renewal is accompanied by a general improvement in the appearance of the skin. The smoothing effect results in a reduction of fine lines and wrinkles.

Witch Hazel: Extract of Hamamelis plant that has astringent and purifying properties due to tannins. Used for congested follicles as it removes excess oil without drying the skin. The presence of flavonoids stimulates microcirculation and inhibits free radicals.

Zinc Oxide: Is a non-chemical, natural mineral sunscreen that forms a protective barrier over the skin. It blocks virtually the entire UVA and UVB sun rays making it the most complete block known. It's also known to soothe and heal skin irritations.

Zinc Sulfate: Reduces this secretion, which is rapidly absorbed by the pilosebaceous system. As a sebo-regulating agent, it inhibits the enzyme responsible for the formation of DHT, a key hormone involved in sebocyte metabolism. It accelerates healing and promotes normal keratinization of the corneum layer.
