and does some of the peeling skin come off into ur hands, so ur hands are also full of the peeling skin? this is normal? Im not taking the skin off myself, buty have noticed after showers and after applying lots of moisturiser and spf that some of the peeling flakes are on my hands…or after showers where there was peeling has now gone, so the waters taken the skin off this isnt gonna scar is it…i know ive been warned to not peel myself, but hope this isnt the same thing ineffectively…
Re: when you apply creams after peels...
i coudlve posted this on the other thread....sorry i forgot to just thought of it now. moderatoers can put it into that thread if its an issue. thanks.
Re: when you apply creams after peels...
Yeah, that does happen after a shower etc. As long as it's peeling naturally and you're not tugging or pulling at it at all it should be fine..
Tempting as it might be to quicken up the process by peeling off the loose skin yourself you must not do it - that can and will cause scarring.. Just slather on loads of moisturiser when it's getting too dry and the peeling/flaking bits are bothering you..

nooo, im not tugging it offmyself, its already doing that byitself, just now i went gym, came back had shower, and then applied the sunblock and moisturiser again and i can see the skin flakes in my hands after i put the creams on face, obv some RUBBING will be involved as im applying on face, but im not tugging at it myself..hope all is well thanks...
Re: when you apply creams after peels…
when applying a lotion, r u just patting it on or rubbing it in, because the rubbing in effect does remove the skin flakes too, so isnt that same thing…
i think skin looks better today, fresher, but still lots of redness…and its day 4…:]
Re: when you apply creams after peels...
VERY gently rub it. If skin peels/flakes on its own while you're GENTLY rubbing it...that's fine. Just don't pull on anything.
Good to hear it looks better & sounds like you're actually peeling. Keep up with the routine and hopefully the peeling with be done in a few more days.
