Key Benefits
Daily facial cleansing alongside gentle exfoliation encourages the skin’s natural renewal process and leaves skin smoother and brighter. Without exfoliation, dead skin cells accumulate leaving skin looking dry, rough or dull. This cleanser combines both physical and chemical exfoliation alongside powerful anti-pigmentation actives to reveal polished, radiant skin and help disperse stubborn pigmentation. When water is added to the powder, it creates a creamy lather which leaves skin feeling polished and deeply cleansed. It is also adaptable to your needs, just vary the amount of powder used for gentle daily cleansing or deeper weekly exfoliation.
How it works
Radiance is measured by your skin’s ability to reflect light. When skin becomes pigmented, it is less able to emit light which leaves the complexion looking dull and lifeless. This dual-action powder-to-foam cleanser formula combines both physical and chemical exfoliants to buff away stubborn pigment from the upper layers of the skin. Gluconolactone, a polyhydroxy acid, chemically breaks down the bonds between dead, darkened skin cells making it easy for them to be removed. Meanwhile, bamboo microparticles work in synergy with volcanic perlite to mechanically buff away loosened dead skin cells to reveal the fresh skin beneath. The exfoliators are combined with oxyresveratrol, which inhibits the enzyme responsible for melanin production. This helps to slow down the creation of hyperpigmentation, leaving a brighter and more even-toned complexion.
