"Hi my name is Mary Thinnes and I am a skin care expert. The next topic I am going to discuss with you is chemical peels and chemical peels are good for any conditions in the skin ranging from hypo pigmentation to acne skin to mature and aging skin, sallow skin, skin that looks dull and drab and for instance a vitamin C peel can actually tighten, lighten and brighten the skin so chemical peels are good for a variety of different skin conditions and also for achieving certain goals like I mentioned for sallow skin if they want their skin to look more alive and bright then you definitely would want to go with a vitamin C peel. Also keep in mind when getting a chemical peel to make sure that you don't go too close to the eyes because actually the chemicals can run underneath the surface of the skin and also someone's lashes can pick up that chemical and it can carry into their eye which is not good. Also chemical peels should not be done over permanent makeup and I just want to say that as a side note because it will actually lighten the color and cause you to have results from the permanent makeup that you didn't want to have before. That being said that is chemical peels."
