Hydrating Gel Exfoliant
Our Hydrating Gel Exfoliant is a Japanese "Peeling Gel". It works by gently binding with and lifting away oils, dirt, and dead skin cells when massaged into the skin.
Unlike traditional exfoliants, there's no stripping acids, harsh abrasives or environmentally damaging micro-beads - just super gentle and ultra-satisfying exfoliation.
Our exfoliant contains water-soluble polymers and mild exfoliating agents. When massaged into the skin, the polymers bind to oils, dirt and dead skin cells, balling up, and in this process, they gently lift and roll away surface debris and dead skin cells. It's a mechanical action, but much gentler than traditional scrubs. The gel pearls you see are a combination of the product itself + oils, dirt, grime and dead skin cells.
Exfoliation is essential to removing dead skin cells and promoting cell turnover. However, traditional methods have often leaned towards abrasive scrubs or strong chemical exfoliants. While effective, these methods can be too aggressive for some, leading to skin irritation and damage.
Our Hydrating Gel Exfoliant is a gentle and effective alternative to traditional exfoliants, that will leave your skin smooth hydrated and glowing.
They are an especially great option for people with sensitive skin, acne-prone skin, rosacea, who typically have to be very cautious when exfoliating (if they can at all).
Use every 2 - 3 days.
- After cleansing, dry your face and gently massage a few pumps of product into the skin.
- The gel will form small pearls as it gently lifts away oil, dirt and dead skin cells.
- Rinse your face with warm water to reveal smoother, hydrated and glowing skin!
- Follow with your regular skincare routine.
