When it comes to exfoliation, Mother Nature has us covered naturally, without any nasty side affects to you or our majestic planet. For this reason, we recommend you avoid any products that contain micro beads. These are small pieces of plastic commonly found in facial cleansers, body scrubs and soap. They damage our oceans and waterways and affect our health when they find their way into our food supply.

Application
Frequency
What’s too much or not enough? Look at your skin closely in the mirror and you’ll know. If your face looks irritated you area exfoliating too often, so ease back soldier. On the other hand, if the skin on your face lacks lustre and appears dull, increase the frequency of your exfoliation. Complexion Polish is gentle enough that most people can handle using it once a week.
The Finish
After exfoliation we recommend feeding the skin some intense nutrients, found in our Love Your Face Serum.
