Choosing a Peel:
Glycolic: stimulates collagen growth more effectively than any of the other peels. It's small molecule allows it to slip beneath the epidermis to reach the collagen fibers below and results in 15%-25% thickening over 12 weeks. Glycolic acid generally causes little or no visible peeling.
Lactic: works on the surface of the skin to treat tone texture and pigmentation. The Lactic acid molecule works to pull moisture into the cells and exfoliate surface cells which helps to perfect the skin's surface and restore the skin's natural glow.
Glycolac: With a combination of Glycolic (25%) with Lactic (35%) it provides hydration and tone improvements of the Lactic with the increased collagen stimulation of the glycolic. It is generally well tolerated because the lactic and glycolic work on different levels or the skin.
Salicylic: a great kertolytic which means it helps loosen the bonds between skin cells to promote exfoliating. It is the only hydroxy acid which is oil soluble which allows it to penetrate into clogged pores. It can be used more frequently than the other peels without must risk for irritation.
BHA+: Hands down the best peel for acne and oily skin. You should expect some visible flaking of the skin 2 days after using the peel. This will help with active acne blemishes as well as old acne marks and a variety of other skin problems.
HQ+: This peel is best for pigmentation and acne scarring. Similar to our BHA+ peel with added ingredients which to help to fade pigmentation differences and even skin tone. If you suffer from old acne marks age spots or melasma this peel will be the most effective in helping you.

Greatest eye cream ever!
This is the only eye cream/serum I plan on wearing. It does not swell my eyes out and drift into them as I sleep. I always said I would never wear eye cream and that they were a waste of time. Once I found Regenerist Eye Serum I was hooked.

IT WORKS...In the last few years I noticed that my heels were getting dry and cracked (not acceptable in my book). I used all different kinds of pumice stones and creams with no real success.
On a whim I ordered the "Ped Egg". I followed the instructions exactly and to my complete amazement it worked! I saw a huge improvement with the very first use. Follow it up with pumice if you need to and some kind of creme or lotion to keep in the moisture.
I have to say that I was skeptical but am really very pleased and happy about the results produced by using the "Ped Egg".
HELPFUL HINT: If you order from their website they'll offer you "Extras" and charge a ridiculous amount of money for each item. My suggestion is to do as I did and only order ONE Ped Egg (no extras). Because when you get the product you'll find a leaflet in the package that offers additional Ped Eggs with FREE SHIPPING.

Mavala Stop doesa wonderful job!This product is amazing. I've been biting my nails for more than 15 years (I'm almost 22) and I managed to stop completely in three weeks.
Mainly I had to become aware of what I was physically doing so I could stop doing it. Because of the horrible bitter lingering taste of Mavala Stop I gradually became aware of what I was doing and could consciously think about my actions. It forced me to be conscious of my bad habit. Secondly the nasty taste removed any enjoyment or stress relief I got from biting my nails since it was so incredibly unpleasant. I became very wary very quickly. This combination of factors made it possible for me to stop which I thought I could never do.
The taste is really horrible. It's like acetone (nail polish remover) bitter rotten wood and some sort of fish put together. It has a very chemical taste with a sweet undertone that makes for a horrible experience. The taste is also very durable and lingering. If you licked a nail painted with Mavala Stop it would take a few minutes to get the taste out. The taste was so bad in my opinion that getting it off of my teeth lips and tongue when I slipped up stopped whatever I was doing or thinking about. It's very very gross. Two coats of polish will last for more than one full week before rubbing off. It can help to freshen it up during the week to keep the taste at full unpleasantness.
It ruined finger foods for me during the time I used it. My fingers periodically touched my lips while I was eating and the nasty taste would rub off slightly. This made me lick my lips a lot to remove the taste quicker-- it's easier to get it over with quickly than to try to avoid it on your lips--which made them lose moisture and chap badly. So you should also buy some lip balm at the same time. If you touch a nail with a fingertip it will rub off there too and from there can transfer to coffee cups pencils hors d'oeuvres etc. Wash your hands before you eat anything that might touch them.
There were no English directions packaged with the product. I don't think this is a problem since the directions are pretty much obvious (Shake. Paint nails. Gag at taste) but it might be a concern for some people. A great deal of other languages were represented in the instruction pamphlet including German Portugese Spanish French and a number of Asian languages.
Mavala Stop has a shine comparable to clear nail polish but not as shiny as premium or ultra-shine clear nail polish. Your nails will probably not look natural but if that's a concern you could probably lie and say it's just a nice buffed manicure. It could easily be worn over nail polish and would probably work like an extra protective topcoat. The shiny quality rubs out over time. At the end of a week it will be duller and more matte but also less effective.
The bottle holds roughly the same amount as a regular bottle of nail polish but Mavala Stop seems to be of a slightly thinner consistency. I recommend carrying the bottle with you in a pocket or purse so that if you must do something to your nails it can at least be a touch-up. Washing your hands seems to dull it out more quickly and removes some of the taste but not all by far. It does not wash out with water and soap but the power is reduced.
The only reason you would fail with this product is if you can't bring yourself to enforce it. You have to make sure you put it on and touch it up. The temptation of not putting it on or letting it wear off quickly is certainly there. I would advise getting someone else involved who will scold you or remind you about it.
I would recommend this product to anyone. The price is worth it as it works very well. I am very pleased with the result.
