This gentle, yet powerful scrub encourages cellular turnover to lighten and brighten the skin and refine texture. Utilizes retinol to encourage the breakup of clogged pores, while jojoba beads gently exfoliate dead skin cells to reveal renewed skin. The added power of kojic acid lightens dark spots and acne scarring.

How to use
- For most skin types, use this product with the Glycolic Cleanser 2 – 3 times per week. The Glycolic Cleanser breaks up the dead, keratinized skin, and the Retinol 2% Exfoliating Scrub/Mask polishes off the dead skin. The retinol also starts desquamating the follicle lining so impactions can purge.
- For sensitive skin or rosacea, use this product with the Green Tea Citrus Cleanser 2 – 3 times per week.
- For use as a mask, apply a thin layer and allow the actives to penetrate the skin for 5 – 10 minutes.
- Can be used as an at-home exfoliation mask.
- Add a minimal amount of water and rub gently in circular motions—no rough scrubbing. Then remove completely with water.
- Avoid getting into the eyes. Flush completely if contact occurs.
- Always use sunscreen when using this product.
Tips
Those looking for brightening and exfoliation for normal, dry, sun-damaged, oily, or acneic skin should try this scrub/mask. Sensitive skin clients can enjoy this product 1-2 times per week without irritation.
For those who like the results from Skin Script Glycolic and Retinol Pads, but found them too strong, this is an excellent alternative.
