Early verdict · Few reviews so far

What the gurus are saying

The creamy formulation stands out for being gentler and more moisturizing than typical acid exfoliants, which makes it especially suitable for drier skin types. Gurus found it effective for multiple concerns at once (evening out redness and texture, fading dark spots, and clearing blemishes) and note that those whose skin tolerates it can use it daily. The formula keeps skin comfortable while it works.

"This formulation is not only great to tone down redness but it's also great if you have texture and if you have dark spots as well. But if you're blemish prone and you're dealing with acne, then this can be another ingredient that can really help to clear up your blemishes as well. So it really is a product that does many things, [...] and you can use this every day if your skin can tolerate it."
