Helen Adie –
This was one of the first Dermalogica products I was introduced to years ago and I still find this the most effective and gentle exfoliant I have ever used. Despite it’s name I use it just once or twice a week and it leaves my skin feeling beautifully smooth and soft. Only a small amount is needed for each application so it lasts well!
