I tried this weekly treatment and didn't notice much of a difference in the tone or texture of my skin. It's a gentle exfoliator for sure, but I suspect my 40+ year old skin needs more. I would definitely recommend it to the younger audience it's intended for though. I appreciate the airless pump packaging.
I've been loving this exfoliating mask. Exfoliating toners and serums sometimes irritate my skin, even if the are gentle formulations. I put 1-2 pumps of this mask on my face once a week before showering, leave it on for 10 minutes and then wash it off. It never irritated, but by morning, my skin is smooth and breakouts are calmed down (if there's any). I prefer to include this product in my Show more
