this has convinced me (Reply to this comment)

that I don't want to try microdermabrasion at my beauty salon. The salon owner has been pushing me to try it, but something in the back of my head tells me that my skin, which breaks out if over-stimulated, would not react well.

I'll stay with my Modern Friction (Origins) and I also started that 2-step product from Avon that I told you about. I really like it!!

Do all the microdermabrasion kits suggest using them several days in a row to start? That sounds like it would be very irritating to the skin!

I so should have went the gentler way ... my brand loyalty with Neutrogena has been shaken with this product ...

The product did give me the skin of a 15 year old ... pimples galore!!!

Thanks for the comment.

It does! Every 5 nights to "stimulate surface cellular renewal." It stimulated high school pimple breakout for me ... and I don't have sensitive skin!

Craziness!
