This facial exfoliator was little pot of "dynamite" and full of surprises! When I initially opened the 100g screw top tub, my senses were flooded by a wonderfully creamy, fruity fig scent and the thick cream inside didn't look like an exfoliator - there were no visible exfoliation particles and I actually wondered if I'd been sent the wrong product in the wrong packaging.
I tentatively patted a finger onto the thick cream and rubbed my fingers together ... utter bliss! I couldn't wait to get this stuff onto my face!
The tiny bamboo particles really do offer a gentle, fine, yet thorough exfoliation. After gently massaging the exfoliator on to my skin and rinsing off with warm water, my skin felt so smooth and yet pampered at the same time.
A little goes a long way and the 100g pot lasts a while even though I exfoliate my oily skin twice a week. If I had to improve one thing about this product it would be the packaging. A flip-top squeeze tube would have been more practical than the screw-top tub.
It may look a little on the expensive side but its definitely worth it and as I said before, a little goes a long way. It's New Zealand made and looks like it's suitable for all skin types.
I'd definitely recommend and purchase this product again!
This is an effective yet hydrating exfoliator. On the positive side: it left my skin smooth and clean, while hydrating it as you rub it into your skin. I love that its natural and NZ made. On the down side, it was rather sharp in exfoliating, and it hurt a little as I rubbed it in. I guess this means it's doing the job and I know I have very sensitive skin so that might not have helped. On the whole, an effective exfoliator which left my skin fresh, clean and smooth but the exfoliating hurt just a little.
