Hi all,

I have a question about the TFEM, how long do you leave it on. I was doing the directed 5 min., but I heard from someone that you can leave it on up to 30min. I do feel that I can go past my 5 min, since I've been using it for awhile now, but I don't want to 'burn' my face more than I should. smileys/smiley7.gifthen I would look like this guy permantly!

Thanks!

I think this may vary with each individual. I, like you can only leave
it on for up to 5 mins, but mostly I can only stand to go about 3
before I feel like my face is going to burn. My skin looks great the
next morning though! I wonder if they(corporate) are going to change it?

I can leave iton longer - it depends on what I am doing while it is on. It barely burns my face now & I just have a slight color change!! I'm actually kind of disappointed, I feel like I need to feel the "BURN" - ha ha!

me too, I started using it in the shower- definitely feel the burn again!!smileys/smiley36.gif

I'm another one who can leave it on longer. It "burns" less now. I need that "tingly" or I don't get my full fix!

LOVE IT!

I leave it on anywhere between 3-5 minutes. One girl in our nation puts it on and she leaves it on overnight! I do have to say, I don't know how it doesn't get all over her pillows and what-not, but her skin looks amazing.

That is so funny. I can only go 3-5 mins myself.

I can only leave it on 5 minutes but I have to say that the REAL BURN for me comes after I rinse it off! Very hot for about 15 minutes after, I always figured because of the water activating and all the water used to rinse. I have also read that it continues to work for about 45 minutes to an hour after you take it off. smileys/smiley2.gif

I tried this and OMG I thought I was having a reaction-lol Did not like that feeling, but I'm sure I'll do it again. I think I left it on for 2 minutes. My husband came home and asked "what the hell happened to your face?" smileys/smiley36.gif

Yeah, my hubby wondered what was wrong with my face too! Now he knows. So, when my face is all red, he goes, "A-----?" smileys/smiley4.gif

And he notices it the next day...he says how soft it is!

I can't believe someone would leave it on overnight!!!!!!!! I think my face would BURN COMPLETELY OFF! smileys/smiley36.gif
