Read the full description
The strongest exfoliating cleanser in the active range. 5% AHA works on the dead skin layer. 1% BHA works inside clogged pores on your body. For rough texture, KP-prone skin and body breakouts. Fragrance-free.
What it does and how
- 5% AHA (glycolic + lactic) — loosens the dead skin sitting on the surface. Glycolic reaches deeper; lactic is gentler.
- 1% Salicylic Acid (BHA) — oil-soluble, so it works inside the pore.
- Niacinamide — helps skin look more even while you exfoliate.
How to use
Apply to wet skin and massage gently, focusing on rough or uneven areas. Leave on for 30–60 seconds, then rinse thoroughly. Use 3–4 times a week, or as your skin tolerates it — not daily. Follow with a moisturiser. Use sunscreen on exposed areas while using this product and for one week after.
What to expect
With consistent use, rough, bumpy texture can feel smoother. How much, and how fast, varies from person to person. If bumps are red, sore or spreading, see a dermatologist.
Cautions
- For external use only. Avoid contact with eyes.
- Don't use on irritated or damaged skin.
- Stop using if irritation occurs.
- Use sunscreen while using this product and for one week after.
- Patch-test on a small area first.
