Not Stripping At All!

This exfoliant is silky, and has a nice blend that doesn’t leave my skin feeling irritated or flakey. It also smells fresh and tropical so I look forward to using it on my exfoliating nights. Doesn’t leave my skin red like others can – and I’ve noticed my skin is smoother after just a few uses. Layers with other products really nicely too.

FAQs

Got questions? We've got you. Here are the most frequently asked questions about our Refining AHA + BHA Exfoliator.
Do I need to rinse off my exfoliating toner? Plus

No. This is a no-rinse exfoliating formula. Once you’ve swiped it over your face with a reusable round, let the remaining product absorb and follow with your serums and moisturiser.

How often should I exfoliate? Plus

Start with 2–3 times per week in the evening. If your skin is used to acids and feels comfortable, you can adjust as needed. If you have sensitive or reactive skin, keep it to 1–2 times per week and always patch test first.

Can I use this if I have sensitive skin? Plus

You can! This product contains a gentle blend of active exfoliating acids, specifically formulated to be kind to sensitive skin.

We do recommend patch testing and starting with a low frequency, as with all actives.

Avoid using it on broken, very irritated, or freshly compromised skin, and always stop using it if you experience discomfort.

Can I use this with retinol, vitamin C, or other actives? Plus

To keep things gentle on your barrier, we suggest not layering this exfoliator with other strong actives in the same routine (for example, high-strength retinoids or strong acid serums). You can alternate nights; exfoliator one night, retinol, or vitamin C another for example.

Will this help with blackheads and congestion? Plus

Yes. The combination of Lactic Acid (AHA) and Salicylic Acid (BHA) helps dissolve dead skin on the surface while also getting into pores to loosen oil and debris. Over time, this can visibly reduce the look of blackheads and congestion.
