Product Benefits
Gently exfoliate without any irritation
Japanese peeling gel exfoliants use soft gel pearls to gently lift away dead skin cells without irritation or damage to your skin barrier.
Hydrating and brightening
Infused with hydrating ingredients that replenish moisture levels, keeping the skin smooth, supple, and refreshed.
Improve skin texture and radiance
Regular exfoliation supports softer, more even skin texture by removing impurities and encouraging cell turnover.
Suitable for sensitive skin
Japanese peeling gel exfoliants were developed as a gentle alternative to traditional exfoliants, making them suitable for sensitive skin.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the exfoliant safe for sensitive skin or rosacea?
Absolutely! Our exfoliant was made with sensitive skin in mind, including for people with rosacea.
It’s ultra-gentle, acid-free, fragrance-free, and doesn’t use any harsh scrubs or actives.
In fact, some of our most loyal customers are people who thought they could never exfoliate due to flare-ups or reactions. Many say it’s the first exfoliant they’ve been able to use without irritation, and they finally feel confident in their skin again.
Customers with rosacea make up a big part of our community and have achieved amazing results.
How often should I use the exfoliant?
We recommend 2–3 times per week, but it depends on your skin. Some people use it daily with no issues, while others find every few days is enough.
Do I need to use a cleanser first?
Yes. The exfoliant should be used on clean, completely dry skin. Use your usual gentle cleanser beforehand (any brand is fine), pat dry, and then apply the exfoliant.
The product doesn't form pearls when I use it
If the gel pearls aren’t forming, your skin is likely still damp. The exfoliant needs to be used on completely dry skin, as water stops the gel from bonding with dead skin cells.
The gel pearls are getting stuck in my peach fuzz
This can sometimes happen when you first use a peeling gel exfoliants and the issue usually resolves on its own!
Here’s how to prevent it:
1) Work in sections (e.g. cheeks, forehead, chin)
2) Rinse or wipe off before it dries out.
3) Use a warm, damp and soft cloth to gently wipe away the product.
Is it really my dead skin coming off?
The pearls you see are a mix of your dead skin and the product. The formula reacts with your skin’s natural oils and surface buildup to gently lift away dead skin cells and impurities.
Are the gel pearls safe to rinse down the drain?
Yes! The gel pearls are completely biodegradable and safe to rinse down the drain. They completely dissolve during rinsing and are fully treated in wastewater systems, leaving no persistent residue or pollution.

- Kate P.Verified BuyerReviewingStarter BundleI recommend this productRated 5 out of 5 starsFeb 27, 2026Nourishing
Wanted to simplify my skincare routine and these products have absolutely nailed it. They’re really nourishing on their own, and it’s easy to add actives when I feel like my skin needs a little extra. I’ve recently started a skin‑needling program and everything has paired beautifully with it. No irritation, just calm, hydrated skin. I’m already about to repurchase my second round of serums and moisturisers, and the exfoliant lasts ages, which is a bonus.
- Wendy G.Verified BuyerReviewingHydrating Gel ExfoliantI recommend this productRated 5 out of 5 starsFeb 27, 2026Indispensable!
I simply have to have this product in my routine now, it is so beneficial for my skin! My daughter in her thirties tried it at my suggestion and is now also a huge fan of how soft and cleansed it leaves your skin feeling and looking - nothing harsh or abrasive.
Don't ever change the formula Erica!
