💭Thoughts:
I liked that it came in a handy tube bottle as it is hygienic and also easy to dispense the exfoliator. However, as soon as I opened it there is a strong, almost sickly sweet fragrance that reminds me of both honey and the cough syrup brand Prospan. It has a light, white gel-cream texture that quickly starts to pill as you rub it in and this further acts as a gentle ‘scrub’.
I was initially worried that a product claiming to exfoliate in just 30 seconds would be too strong for my skin but it didn’t sting my skin at all and actually worked quite well. My skin was soft and smooth after without feeling tight or sensitised. Chemical exfoliators are able to penetrate the skin more deeply than physical scrubs and I hope that my blackheads and whiteheads will be resolved soon with regular use of this.
