ASAP Daily Exfoliating Facial Scrub & Daily Facial Cleanser with AHA
Let's start off with, my skin type. Super sensitive, acne-prone with oily T zone and a bit flakey in colder seasons.
The exfoliator has a very coarse gritty consistency; not everyone's cup of tea, but I find it an excellent way to make sure that every scrap of makeup is removed and de-clogged from my pores, while also massaging and removing the dead skin from the most outer layer.
The cleanser is very gentle yet effective (milky-gel consistancy). With the added AHA (Alpha Hydroxy Acids - used in chemical peels, microdermabration, and general smoothing and erasing fine lines and imperfections) in the form of Glycolic Acid which breaks down the substances that clog pores. Although this form of AHA is natural, it's strongly recommended that you should follow after rinsing off and drying the face with a nourishing moisturiser.
The cleanser boosts antioxidants, anti-ageing ingredients and helps to protect against free radical damage. The formula is oil-free and non pore clogging as well.
Some small points:
- Cleanser can be used with a Clarasonic.
- Ingredients are excellent for those struggling with acne as it will gradually combat the acne in a gentle progressive way. Its not harsh like Proactive for example, it may take a couple of months for there to be dramatic results, but a cleanse per day will make the world of difference to decrease production of acne forming.
I have used both these products for 5 years and am definitely not ready to remove these two staple products from my skin care routine!
