Without sounding like a broken record, allow me to share that I recently came across yet another Buzzfeed article product winner, and I would like to share this product with all of you.

I am in my 30s, and I still experience acne. It positively sucks, and while I’ve tried just about every bloody product under the sun at this point, I am willing to experiment a bit here and there if a product offers excellent reviews. When I learned about Dr. Melaxin’s Peel Shot Glow White Rice Peeling Ampoule, and then took a gander at the excellent ratings it has received, I figured it was worth a shot, seeing as the product retails for about $30, which is significantly cheaper than most of the skincare products available these days, anyways.

This stuff is intended to exfoliate the hell out of your skin without causing any irritation, and my God, it does just that. I tried it out for the first time the other night, and because I was so impressed by the amount of dead skin cells it pulled out of my pores, I actually called Blaine into the bathroom to witness these effects.

I don’t necessarily think Blaine even knew what he was looking at, but he was a good sport about it.

Here is a description of what the product claims to do, via its page on amazon.ca:

• “Deep Pore Care & Radiant Skin – Enriched with ‘Pentarice,’ this ampoule removes dead skin cells, blackheads, and impurities for a visibly brighter, clearer complexion, while pore-tightening ingredients refine the skin.
• “Niacinamide & Rice Extract for Radiance – Infused with niacinamide, it revitalizes and brightens the skin, visibly reducing pore size, smoothing texture, and diminishing blackheads.
• “Deep Hydration with Rice Bran Water & PENTAVITIN – Providing over 90% of rice’s nutrients, rice bran water and PENTAVITIN deliver intense hydration and gentle exfoliation. Skin feels softer and plumper, maintaining moisture throughout the day.
• “Comprehensive Exfoliation System – A blend of AHA, BHA, and PHA agents supports skin’s renewal cycle, refining texture and boosting radiance without irritation. This multi-level exfoliation process clears away unnecessary dead cells to reveal smoother skin underneath.
• “Balanced Hydration & Clarity – Rice extract and niacinamide, rich in natural moisturizing factors, help balance, soothe, and hydrate skin for a refreshed, clear appearance,” the web page states.

I cannot recommend this product enough.
