Dermaplaning followed by the Double Peel™ gives your client that porcelain, glass-skin finish in one session — and it works across skin types when you read the skin and adjust timing.
In our latest Monday with Mr. Lulu session, celebrity esthetician Giezi Chacon walked through the full protocol live on a model (phototype IV). Giezi is originally from Venezuela, works out of Florida, and has more than 20 years in the treatment room. Below is everything she covered: the order of steps, the exact products, her timing, and her answers to your questions in the chat.
Why pair dermaplaning with the Double Peel™
Dermaplaning takes off the top layer of dead skin and the vellus hair in one pass. With that out of the way, the two peel phases that follow work on a clean, even surface — and the serums after them sit right where you want them.
Giezi's go-to moments for this service:
- A client with a party, an event or a photoshoot coming up
- Anyone getting their makeup done who wants it to sit flat and smooth
- Clients asking for brightness and that "glass skin" look
It's also comfortable. There's no pain with the blade, and on the model the first peel phase registered a 2 out of 5 for sensation.
The myth Giezi gets asked about most: no, the hair does not grow back thicker. Dermaplaning cuts the hair at the surface. It doesn't touch the follicle, so the hair grows back the same.
What makes this protocol different
Two peel phases, oil then water. The Salicylic Resurfacing Oil works in the skin's oils first. Then the Lactic Azelaic Powder Peel works in the water phase. Two exfoliations with different jobs, each one gentle enough to tune.
Waterless, activated in front of you. Every powder is mixed with water at the moment you use it, so the actives are fresh when they meet the skin. No preservatives needed, nothing sitting diluted in a bottle.
Your cleanser is your neutralizer. The Probiotic and Azelaic Powder Cleansers do triple duty: prep, oil removal after dermaplaning, and neutralizing both peels. Fewer products on the trolley, fewer steps to remember.
You stay in control. Contact time runs 2 to 5 minutes depending on the skin, and you can neutralize any area again the moment your client feels too much. Giezi uses this protocol on every skin condition, including sensitive skin and active rosacea, by adjusting timing and listening to the client.
Built for skin pros. The peels and pro serums are sold only to licensed estheticians, with Mr. Lulu Education behind you for protocols and support.
