Multi-Use Exfoliating Powder
A multi-use enzyme exfoliant that gently buffs away dullness-causing dead skin cells and decongests pores for a refreshed, illuminated complexion. Skin feels instantly clean and purified, appears refreshed and more luminous after one use, and is noticeably smoother with less visible pores after 7 days.
Where does it go in my routine? After cleanser and before serums, moisturiser, and SPF when used in the morning.
How often should I use it? Daily or every other day if Illuminating Enzyme Polish is your primary form of exfoliation. If cycling in a routine with other exfoliants, use 1-3 times a week based on your skin's tolerance. This product can be used AM or PM, however, it is not recommended to use more than once a day.
How much do I need? Half a teaspoon of polishing powder, or more, depending on your preferred consistency.
Where should I apply it? Apply to damp skin, massaging over the face, neck and décolletage.

Enzymatic exfoliation is the gentlest form of exfoliation, making it an excellent option for anyone unable to tolerate chemical exfoliants (like those containing Glycolic Acid) or physical exfoliants (often known as face scrubs).
Like exfoliating acids, exfoliating enzymes work to dissolve the glue holding dead skin cells together. While exfoliating acids can penetrate deeper into the skin, enzymatic exfoliation only works on the outermost layer of the skin, promoting cell turnover without disturbing the skin's protective barrier. This makes enzymatic exfoliation suitable for sensitive skin types or anyone who prefers to exfoliate every day in a safe way.

Gentle exfoliating, leaves skin so fresh
I’m familiar with the way on how to use this product since I have used and lived the Anua. I got high expectations with this one but turns out the Anua is better, but that’s just for me. We each have different skin types and concern, and so I’d say it’s just a good product.
My skin feels smoother and looks more vibrant after using this. Doesn’t feel
Like it strips me skin but still feels so clean and smooth.
Smoother and more gentle than other microfoliants. Doesn't really foam, more clay like.
Smells glorious, berries. Works very well and does the job.
Does need to be removed with a face washer, cannot just rinse off.
This is a lovely, gentle exfoliating polish. It is a much finer powder compared with other exfoliating powders I have tried. It is very gentle and doesn't leave my skin red or irritated. I also like the option to leave it on longer as a mask. I normally only use manual exfoliation once a week but I feel like this is gentle enough to use more often.
