A vitamin packed serum, Green Beauty Youth Boost Facial Serum firms, illuminates, evens skin tone, and smoothes the appearance of fine lines.  Also contains Swiss apple stem cells, clinically proven to reduce the appearance of wrinkles.  Green Beauty was created created to be pure, authentic, beautiful, luxurious, natural and organic.  In a clinical trial over 4 weeks, 100% of subjects showed a visible improvement in wrinkle depth and crows feet.  This serum also makes a great primer as it left my skin silky smooth, a great canvas for foundation.

Phase 1:  Cosmelan 1 Mask is applied in office and left on skin for 4-10 hours depending on severity of Hyperpigmentation and skin color.  

Phase 2:  For at home maintenance Cosmelan 2, the mask is removed with Cosmelan Facial Gel Cleanser and followed by Hydra-vital Factor K Cream.

I am not promoting "skin bleaching".  This peel is for reversing hyperpigmentation to achieve a more even skin tone.
