What It Feels Like
A creamy polish with fine physical exfoliation and a noticeable cooling sensation from menthol.
After rinsing, skin should feel:
- Smoother
- Softer
- Cleaner
- More polished
- Refreshed
The cooling sensation is part of the formula’s sensory experience. If you are sensitive to menthol, this may not be your ideal exfoliator.
What to Expect
This is an exfoliating treatment, not an everyday cleanser.
Regular use can help improve the appearance of:
- Dullness
- Rough texture
- Flakiness
- Uneven tone
- Surface discoloration
Because it combines physical exfoliation with brightening ingredients, more frequent or more aggressive use isn’t better. Over-exfoliating can leave skin feeling irritated and compromised.
How to Use
- Apply to damp skin on the face or body.
- Massage very gently in small circular motions.
- Use a lighter touch on the face.
- Rinse thoroughly.
- Pat skin dry.
- Follow with moisturizer.
Use 2–3 times per week, depending on how your skin responds.
Apply SPF during the day, particularly when using a routine focused on improving the appearance of discoloration.
What to Know Before You Buy
- This product uses physical exfoliation, so pressure matters. Let the polish do the work.
- Do not use on broken, sunburned, actively irritated, or compromised skin.
- If you already use retinoids, acids, kojic acid treatments, or other exfoliants, introduce this carefully rather than stacking multiple exfoliating treatments.
- The formula contains menthol and aromatic ingredients and may not suit highly reactive skin.
- This product can improve the appearance of surface dullness and discoloration, but it cannot erase every type of pigmentation.
- Consistency and sun protection matter more than aggressive exfoliation.
