AFA Clay and Gel Peel

Description

Duration: Approx. 30 mins

Our AFA Clay + Gel Peel is a dynamic two-step process combining AFA Clay Peeling with the standard AFA Gel Peel. This unique approach introduces an additional layer of deep peeling before the AFA Gel Peel, optimizing the overall treatment.

The AFA Clay Peel serves as a preparatory step, working to close + tighten pores while enhancing the effectiveness of the Gel Peel. This synergy between the two peels ensures a comprehensive + revitalizing skincare experience!

Ideal for: Blemished, congested + textured skin.
