And only then undergo a full course of peelings of different effects: superficial, superficial-medium.

Patient reviews
A patient shares her experience of using the Compliment black mask peel off mask in this review. He notes that it is removed in one piece, even showing a depilation effect - it removes small hairs. At the same time, a noticeable pain is felt.
The girl from this review thinks the mask from the Compliment black mask peel off series is good. Recommends using it no more than once a week to avoid skin injury. Those with sensitive skin are not advised to use this product.
A patient talks about using Liquid Pumice Foot Scrub in this review. Among the advantages, he notes the smoothness of the skin, composition, structure, smell and price of the product. He also notices the downsides - it doesn’t remove the “roughness”.
Compliment Cryoeffect gets good reviews. So a girl who has used it on herself several times notes the following results: the skin is refreshed, toned, and smoother to the touch. The only downside is that the peeling microparticles are too sharp, which can injure very delicate skin. Recommends the product for use.
The Compliment peeling series can be an alternative to salon care. But not if the skin is very neglected and is all covered with blackheads and other troubles. Then, to achieve the desired result, you will have to use peeling for a long time.
When choosing cosmetics for mature skin, you should not expect miracles from the product in the form of powerful lifting and smoothing out wrinkles. In this case, only plastic will help. But as a home remedy used regularly, Compliment can significantly improve the condition of the epidermis and improve its health at the cellular level. This is evidenced by numerous reviews from those who have already experienced the effects of affordable cosmetics on themselves.
