Hi Dee! 
That Paula&#039;s Choice product sounds like a really nice multi-acid blend. 
For how often, the manufacturer says once a week and that&#039;s a fine starting point. 

But honestly, it helps to just see how your skin responds first before locking into a schedule. If your skin is calm with no lingering redness or sensitivity between peels, once a week is usually fine. If not, space them out. Some weeks I do a peel, some weeks I skip it. 

As for the 20% glycolic - once you&#039;ve been doing the Paula&#039;s Choice peel for a while and your skin is handling it well, that&#039;s a good time to try it. I&#039;ve always been able to do a 20% glycolic once a week without any issues, and to me 20% isn&#039;t too strong, but it just takes time for the skin to acclimate and everyone is different. Maybe try it every 2-3 weeks at first and see how you do.
And always wear sunscreen daily when you&#039;re peeling. I hope that helps!]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Hi, I just discovered your YT channel a month ago and started my at home chemical peels with an 8% glycolic acid peel (Paula’s Choice which also includes other acids for a total 25% AHA peel). How often do you recommend using this type of peel? Instructions say once a week but not sure if this is overdoing it. And how often do you use the stronger (20%) glycolic acid peels?]]></description>
