Why Good Skin?
- Health:
Healthy skin serves as a barrier against infections, prevents dehydration, and regulates body temperature. It’s an indicator of overall health. - Self-esteem:
Having skin issues like acne, eczema, or scars can impact self-esteem. Achieving good skin can boost confidence and improve mental well-being. - Appearance & makeup application:
Good skin provides a smooth canvas for makeup, making it easier to apply enhancing skins appearance. - Long-term effects:
Taking care of your skin can prevent premature aging, wrinkles, and other long-term skin issues. - Comfort:
Skin conditions like dryness, itchiness, or irritation can be uncomfortable. Having good skin can reduce such discomfort.
So how do you get this coveted “good skin?” One way to enhance the appearance and nurture the health of your skin is through facial peels. We asked our experts to break down some common questions and help us understand: What’s the deal with peels?
What’s the difference between a peel and a regular facial?
While both facials and chemical peels aim to improve the skin’s appearance, chemical peels provide deeper exfoliation and can target more specific skin concerns due to the strength of the active ingredients. Facials, on the other hand, are gentler and provide more relaxation along with surface-level skin improvements.
The biggest point of difference is the actual physical change people feel and see in their skin. Unlike many peels, the peels that JUUT feel gentle while they are on the skin but are absolutely effective. People are always amazed by the difference in their skin’s appearance.”

So, what kind of peels does JUUT offer?
At JUUT we use a skincare brand out of Australia called Ultraceuticals. Ultraceuticals is known for its scientifically-backed products that combine potent active ingredients with advanced delivery systems. These products and practices are frequently developed in collaboration with dermatologists and skincare professionals to provide the most efficacious treatments.
JUUT offers a variety of Ultraceuticals peels targeting numerous skin conditions including acne, brightening, hydration, and aging.
Mattify & Clear
Our facial peel called, “Mattify & Clear” is a mandelic peel that deeply cleanses and clarifies. This treatment helps to effectively exfoliate the complexion leaving it looking and feeling smooth, clear and even. Suitable for oily, congested and problematic skin!
Hydrate & Firm
The lactic peel, used in our service called, “Hydrate & Firm, is ideal for skin showing early signs of aging – including fine lines and wrinkles. This peel helps increase hydration and provides firmer, more supple looking skin and is suitable for normal and dry skin.
Radiance & Glow
The lactic peel, used in our service called, “Hydrate & Firm, is ideal for skin showing early signs of aging – including fine lines and wrinkles. This peel helps increase hydration and provides firmer, more supple looking skin and is suitable for normal and dry skin.
Refine & Hydrate
This gentle facial peel treatment refines the surface of the skin, leaving it looking plumped, rejuvenated, brighter and glowing and is the best peel for sensitive skin.
Why are peels beneficial in the winter?
While both facials and chemical peels aim to improve the skin’s appearance, chemical peels provide deeper exfoliation and can target more specific skin concerns due to the strength of the active ingredients. Facials, on the other hand, are gentler and provide more relaxation along with surface-level skin improvements.
It is best to stay out of the heat and sun after getting a peel, making winter and fall the best time to get peel treatments. After being in the summer sun, peels in the fall and winter can help erase any damage you have caused your skin from the sun. Additionally, getting a peel during the winter months will help slough off dry, dead skin, which will keep your complexion bright and help at-home products work better.”

What type of skin conditions can peels improve?
Customized peels are extremely effective at treating a variety of skin concerns as seen in the images above. This includes skin conditions like dryness, visible pores, and fine lines. Specifically, our Ultraceuticals peels are tailored to target:
- Dryness
- Fine Lines and Wrinkles
- Loss of Firmness
- Uneven Texture
- Discoloration
- Visible Pores
- Acne
- Dullness
Your esthetician will prescribe a treatment plan to achieve your desired outcomes for long term, visible results after a free, thorough consultation.
Any final words about the Ultraceuticals difference?
Ultraceuticals was made and tested around one of the harshest conditions in the world – the Australian sun. It is science based skincare and developed using optimal concentrations of scientifically proven and potent ingredients. These products and treatments have been developed to ensure optimal skin results while balancing ingredients that are environmentally considerate when possible. Ultraceutials is considered a cosmeceutical, meaning it has a physiological change in the skin and helps the skins barrier while products penetrate deeply. While other lines can use ingredients that may give you good results they are not always the best for your skin’s overall health and can cause damage to your skins barrier.”

If you’re looking for effectiveness and to give your skin top-notch care, Ultraceuticals is an affordable brand that actually makes a physical change in your skin concern. Their moisturizers are formulated with ceramides and hyaluronic acid plus many more innovative ingredients. Prevention Magazine has already awarded Ultraceuticals twice this year for Best Beauty Products for Women over 40! I strongly recommend everyone try an Ultraceuticals treatment.
