Alpha Night Peel

1. In the evening only, on clean dry skin, apply three to four drops to the face, neck and décolleté.
2. Massage in gently and keep well away from the eye contour.
3. Wait five to ten minutes before your moisturiser, so the acids can do their work first.
4. Start two or three nights a week, then build up to every other night as your skin adapts.
5. Apply your SPF the next morning without exception.

Can I use it every night?

Build up rather than start there. Alphascience recommends two or three nights a week for the first two to three weeks, then every other night, then nightly if your skin stays comfortable. Sensitive skin is better off staying at two or three nights a week for good.

Can I use it alongside my retinoid?

Yes, but on alternate evenings, never the same night. Combining a 10% acid formula with a retinoid in one routine raises the risk of irritation and dryness. A simple pattern works: peel on Monday, Wednesday, Friday, retinoid on Tuesday and Thursday.

Will it sting?

A brief tingle on the first few nights is common with acid serums and usually settles within a week or two. If stinging persists, or you see redness and flaking, drop back to every second or third night. Persistent discomfort means the frequency is wrong, not the product.

Can I use it on my neck and décolleté?

Yes, the brand includes both areas in its instructions, and both benefit from regular exfoliation. Apply sparingly and build up more slowly than on the face. The skin there is thinner and tends to react sooner, so give it an extra week or two to settle.
