    I cut it in to 4 squares
    Reviewed on February 19, 2016 by flylady on sephora.com
    I received this in the play box. The first time I used it I noticed it is a really big wipe so the second time I cut the wipe in four squares and taped the little packet real good to use the other 3 pieces later. One packet could stretch in to 4 treatments! Its not that expensive that you should save all that much money but its a lot of product in one wipe. I love the way it cleaned my face and I had brown spots disappear after 3 uses. I'll be purchasing this product for a clean in between Microderm appointments! Very nice!

    best product on the planet
    Reviewed on January 14, 2014 by cinderella87 on sephora.com
    This is hands down the best skin care product I have ever used. About four years ago I suddenly developed severe adult acne. I tried everything to get rid of it, and this is the ONLY thing that worked. Within two weeks of using it my skin had started to clear, and within 6 months I had perfect skin. I eventually stopped using it because of the cost. Fast forward a few years - A few weeks ago my skin started breaking out again and my skin tone has been extremely uneven. I am also getting married in May and want my skin to be at it's best. I went right out and purchased this peel again, and two weeks in my acne is gone and my skin tone is evening. I have red undertones and my skin can look really blotchy if I don't have foundation on. However, when I use the Dr. Dennis Gross peel, my skin looks great without makeup, and on an average day i just have to wear a very light tinted moisturizer. I'm in love!!!!!!!! This time I won't stop buying it - it really is wroth the cost.

    30 Day Results
    Reviewed on March 11, 2022 by Jesslaw on sephora.com
    I waited a full 30 days to give y’all an accurate review. This product definitely works, but it is a process. You need to wait the full 30 days to see actual results. I used this when I was suffering a major hormonal breakout when I started this treatment. You will purge, it does get worse before it gets better BUT you cannot deny the results! I wish u could be a spokesperson for this brand because it really is a life changing product. My skin was making me majorly depressed and this helped TREMENDOUSLY. I highly recommend, and follow the instructions exactly!

    Amazing Product
    Reviewed on July 22, 2016 by mobay914 on sephora.com
    I have found a product that I will use for as long as they keep making it. This peel is unbelievable and you won't know unless you try it! I use it whenever my skin feels lackluster or I have a few breakouts. I use the wipes at night and when I wake up in the morning I have flawless skin. I have stopped wearing face makeup because of this product and I used to use full coverage foundation. Do yourself a favor and pick up the 5-pack to try it out. You will not be disappointed! Also for reference I have extremely dry skin and it does not dry it out.

    Wow...
    Reviewed on March 6, 2014 by Kirklady on sephora.com
    A little on my background, I'm 22 and have been suffering from acne ever since I hit puberty at the early age of 10. I've tried just about everything, the most drastic of which was Accutane, which cleared my skin for a while but the side effects were so awful I had to quit it. Out of all the treatments I've suffered through, the only thing that has ever really changed my skin was eating healthy (funny, because my derm insists diet doesn't affect acne. Ha!). Anyway, though my skin isn't horrible, it's still bad enough to really drag down my confidence. I'm lucky to have finally mastered foundation application, which actually makes my skin look almost normal, but that isn't a solution to the problem! I bought these in the hopes that they'd even out my skin tone a little and maybe even help with the scarring. I've used four pads so far, and am impressed (wish I had taken before and after pictures!). It's not an overnight cure, but it has definitely reduced redness, flattened raised pimples, and given my skin a certain glow. Now, some other reviewers mentioned that this product worked great for a week or so, then they broke out horribly. I think it's worth mentioning that after my second night of using this, there's a very small cluster of pimples on the upper right of my forehead (which is why I deducted a star from the rating). I know this is what did it because I NEVER break out on my forehead, only my jawline, chin, and cheeks. But, other than that, my skin has showed no other signs of irritation, only improvement. In fact, this has proven gentle enough for me so use every night instead of every other day. I will definitely do a follow up review in a couple weeks or so (either here or on the extra strength version). But for now, I can say that I'm happy with the purchase!

    Love these
    Reviewed on February 4, 2016 by larlar320 on sephora.com
    so I was very skeptical that a) I would see a difference and b) that my sensitive skin would not feel as if it was burning off. Thankfully I was wrong on all accounts. I have sensitive skin and gambled by getting the universal. And I have to say it doesn't irritate my skin but I do feel a tingle when applied. I absolutely love these and have definitely noticed a difference in my skin. I will definitely be repurchasing in the future. I also took someone else's advice on here and cut the pads in half so they would last longer.

    SO worth the money
    Reviewed on January 18, 2021 by angelawys on sephora.com
    SO worth the money! Bought these (along with the Dr Dennis Gross face wash) after having serious flare ups with my skin, and my old products stopped working. I’ve only been using these for 5 days, and already see an extremely noticeable difference. Helping with my acne breakouts, pore size, and to even out skin texture. Worth the investment!

    RUINED MY SKIN!!!!!!
    Reviewed on May 24, 2014 by caramelgirl10 on sephora.com
    After carefully reading over reviews i was excited to try this peel to help fade my hyperpigmentation (acne scars). I have sensitive skin but the associates at sephora told me it was super gentle for sensitive skin and safe to use every night. The first 2 or 3 days were great! my skin was soft and glowing. By the 4th day i noticed small bumps started to appear on my cheeks. I kept using it cuz it wasn't a huge deal. By the 7th day, the tiny bumps spread and started making me breakout in areas I don't usually get breakouts! It was bad enough for ppl to ask me what happened to my face. I wish I NEVER used this product :( Its a month later and I'm still dealing with bumpy skin :( Regardless of what they tell you this is NOT for acne-prone or sensitive skin!!! BEWARE!

    Broke me out more
    Reviewed on May 19, 2020 by agcurioso on sephora.com
    I’m disappointed. I never write reviews but feel I have to share. I don’t know if it’s supposed to increase acne, but I wake up everyday with a new giant pimple because of this. I only bought the $17 one with 5 treatments and I was in love at first, but then started to break me out even more. My skin is not really sensitive at all. It made me pores look smaller but I feel as though this wasn’t worth the amount of acne I’m gaining currently.

    Okay
    Reviewed on March 18, 2021 by kim435 on sephora.com
    I was super excited to try these because I heard they help with acne scars but honestly have not seen much of a difference at all. 1st photo is before second is after, full 30 days. I can say this product made my skin feel tighter and brighter, after using them at night I would wake up and my skin overall would look better, but did not make much of a difference for dark spots or acne scars definitely not for the price.

    Soft skin but...
    Reviewed on March 28, 2014 by Armagh on sephora.com
    This definitely will make your skin amazingly soft and give you an immediate glow, but if you have even a hint of redness or rosacea (I have one tiny patch on one cheek) it really does hurt and seems to make it flare up. So while I think the product works and is great for people with non-sensitive skin, I wouldn't recommend it for those with skin that irritates easily, is sensitive, or has rosacea.

    Super Bummed
    Reviewed on November 23, 2019 by KaylaLeeBeauty on sephora.com
    I ordered these during the VIB Holiday Sale after having several girlfriends tell me they were great. I used them for 6 days/ treatments & as of last night the right side of my face is completely broken out with tiny red bumps all over my forehead, cheeks and chin. I have never been prone to breakouts other than the occasional pimple here and there. These tiny red bumps are under the skin and look awful. I am going to return them and hope to god that my skin returns to its normal state shortly.

    Swollen and itchy
    Reviewed on April 7, 2020 by Lisanne624 on sephora.com
    As some others have stated, this product made the entire side of my face break out in small, itchy red bumps. The entire cheek and chin area on that side is swollen and tender. I've only used two of the pads, so I will reduce the time between using and see if it helps. I have very oily skin and I was hoping this would help, but I seem to have just added another skin problem instead of solving the one I had.

    GAME CHANGER
    Reviewed on April 21, 2018 by meesh212 on sephora.com
    WOW! Completely BLOWN AWAY by these little miracle pads!!! My skin has NEVER looked & felt more amazing!!! Bright, even, smooth, soft, glowing. My husband doesn’t even notice or realize when I get Botox, but he has commented, more than once, how great my skin looks...which is, of course, the true testament (not really, lol). I was slightly worried about my skin becoming more dry from these, but the results have been the complete opposite. I’ve already purchased the one month supply!

    Absolutely Amazing!!
    Reviewed on November 10, 2020 by awiseman1 on sephora.com
    These are amazing! I have purchased the universal and extra strength from Sephora and directly from Dr. Gross. Amazing! I use them, mainly for hyperpigmentation and melasma, on my face and back. The melasma on my back which I've had for 5+ years and never thought would go away (which my derm wanted to charge $1000 a laser treatment) is almost completely gone!! My facial skin is much more smooth, soft, and even!
