Consumer reviews of Serum Vegetal peeling from Yves Rocher
Ksenia, 36 years old, Krasnodar:
For a very long time I could not get used to sleeping with my face smeared, due to which I did not get the desired effect. But it was worth the patience! The crusts from inflammation began to dry out faster, the skin tightened, became smooth and fresh. There were a huge number of wrinkles (a consequence of frequent stress), now I look much younger and more attractive. I recommend!
Lydia, 29 years old, Perm:
I really liked this product, the effect is noticeable after the first use, the skin is fresh and smooth. I recommend to all! The price, of course, is high, but if you consider that this is a super-economical cosmetic that lasts a long time, then the cost of the product becomes quite acceptable. My recommendations.

How to properly apply herbal peeling?
Yves Rocher's herbal peeling can be safely called “salvation for the lazy,” since it does not even require separate rinsing. The procedure is extremely simple:
- We carry out evening cleansing of the skin from makeup and impurities in the usual way.
- Shake the bottle thoroughly and distribute the product over the face.
That's all. We will wash it off during the morning wash. When applied, the product forms a thin film on the face, but it does not cause skin tightness and does not cause discomfort during the night.
You can use the serum no more than 2 times a week. The product has a cumulative effect; you should not expect a magical smoothing of wrinkles after the first use. Based on reviews of Yves Rocher facial peeling, we can conclude that pronounced results appear after 2-3 months of regular use.
