Fantastic Exfoliator for Smoother Skin
I’ve had my fair share of surprises with lesser-known beauty brands, but this product truly impressed me! Despite some products only relying on buzzwords, this one actually delivers amazing results.The texture is similar to Pascalite, a fine clay, but without the typical clumping you'd expect from clay. It leaves a soft, almost salt-like feel, but without the rough, abrasive texture of salt. I’m usually cautious with exfoliants, as some can be too harsh for my skin. I honestly didn’t even realize this was an exfoliant at first—it feels more like a gentle cleanser. It leaves my skin feeling refreshed, not irritated at all, which is exactly what I want and the best part is that this doesn’t make a mess and rinses off easily.I feel like I’m getting great value for my money because the product is made entirely of dry ingredients—no water added. This means the bottle is packed with active ingredients, rather than diluted by water, making it both more economical and eco-friendly. After using it just once,my skin feels significantly smoother, even better than when I use exfoliating brushes or other scrubs. Even rough spots and old scars feel softer.I have occasionally sensitive skin, so I’m always cautious about trying new products. But as I get older, I’ve noticed signs of hyperpigmentation, and I decided to take the plunge. I’m so glad I did—my skin had no reaction other than feeling amazing! I sprinkled a bit of powder into my hand, wet it slightly, and massaged it onto my face, after a good cleansing it rinsed off easily, with no scent or residue left behind.Though I’m going to be cautious about how much I use due to the price and volume, this is definitely going to become a staple in my nighttime routine. Highly recommend!

Chemical and physical exfoliation are effective, grains a little tough to use
I had a couple of facials where they used chemical exfoliants and I really liked the results, so I've been looking for something similar. I'd never heard of this brand and the combination of a chemical and physical exfoliant appealed to me. Using both (albeit not in the same products) has really helped my skin improve lately, mostly by getting rid of dark spots caused by sun and age.I do have sensitive skin so I was a little wary. I've been using this every other day for a couple of weeks now. Initially I did feel a slight tingle during and after use, almost a stinging feeling, but I think that was my skin getting used to the chemical. It did the same when I first started using retinols. I'd recommend this for anyone--try it once, wait a few days to try again, and see what happens.I have a similar cleanser that comes out as grains and must be mixed with water. The benefit of this is you can make it more or less gritty, depending on how much water you use. The drawback is that it's near impossible to use in the shower unless you turn the water off. And with this coming in a glass bottle, I'm never going to bring it in the shower for fear of dropping it.I've used it mixed with varying amounts of water. One time I had it pretty much completely dissolved so it was quite foamy and not really gritty. I've also had it quite gritty and less foamy, and then sort of in the middle with respect to both.To use it, I wet my face with warm water, then pour this in my palm. I gradually add drops of water, rub my hands together and apply to my face. I rub in circles with my hands and then rinse. I use my usual glycolic acid toner, a serum, and moisturizer. You will definitely see foam as you mix in the water and rub in your hands. If it's grittier than you want, add drops of water and keep mixing until it dissolves and gets foamier.After a couple of weeks of use, dark spots on my cheek have faded a bit. I've had the same results with serums and after I started using retinols and glycolic acid. I feel like this one has worked more quickly than all those. I'm still wary of using it more than 3-4 times a week, but will definitely keep using it.Other than the grains being tough to use and it being packed in a glass bottle, the price is of course a bit of a drawback. You only use about a teaspoon, so it'll last quite a while. And I don't know of any similar products, so there isn't necessarily a cheaper alternative. I personally would probably buy this again, I'd just wait for a sale.

Wow!
Sometimes you get surprises with unknown brand beauty products. They’ll say the buzzwords, but don’t do anything. This product delivered excellent results though! I’m very impressed.The texture feels a lot like pascalite which is a very fine clay. However, this product does not clump like clay. It also leaves a nice soft feel almost like salt, but yet doesn’t have the rough, coarse texture that salt has.I’m careful with exfoliants as sometimes they are way too harsh. I wouldn’t have even realized this is an exfoliant if it wasn’t labeled that way. It feels more like a cleanser really. Which works for me! Leaves the skin feeling great and not irritated at all!It also doesn’t make a mess like clay does. Washes away easily.I feel like you’re getting extra bang for your buck with this product because there is no water in it, it’s dry ingredients. If the water was pre-mixed in then you would get way less of the active ingredient to fit in this bottle. No water is more economical and earth-friendly too!Will order again, excellent product!

An effective cleanser
Overall I found this to be a fairly effective product. As the instructions say, you put about a teaspoon of the product in your palm, add a tiny bit of water and mix it before using. You have to be careful to not use too much water as if you do, it tend to just become foam and is less effective as an exfoliator. When used correctly, though, it does seem to work well to make your skin smoother.While the product is fairly pricey, there are quite a few uses in it, which helps. There really isn't any scent, so it won't compete with any other scented products that you might choose to use.

Easy to Use, Works Well
This product is easy to use. Just add a little powder to your hand with a bit of warm water, rub into a lather, and apply to your face and scrub. It's comfortably abrasive and leaves your skin feeling smooth and clean. It doesn't have the greatest smell, reminding me of wet flour, but it washes off cleanly and does a great job.
