Question about calming a client's skin after a strong peel
I had a client last month with redness that just wouldn't settle after a 30% glycolic treatment. Instead of my usual aloe gel, I tried a cold chamomile tea compress for five minutes before applying a zinc oxide cream. Has anyone found a better post-peel soother for sensitive types?

That sounds rough, a client with redness that won't quit is so stressful. Cold chamomile tea is smart, I've done that before and it helps. Have you tried a bit of oat milk or colloidal oatmeal? It's super gentle for calming things down.

Try a thin layer of plain petroleum jelly, it seals everything in without irritation.
