What makes the Light Skin Peel different from a standard facial scrub?

Unlike a physical scrub that relies solely on abrasive particles to buff the skin’s surface, the Light Skin Peel Mild Exfoliant combines multiple exfoliating mechanisms in a single formula. Salicylic acid works as a beta hydroxy acid to dissolve the bonds holding dead skin cells together and unclog pores from within, while papain, a natural enzyme derived from papaya, works at the surface to gently digest and lift lifeless skin cells without harsh abrasion. Sweet almond seed meal contributes a gentle physical element that buffs texture as the mask is removed. The kaolin clay and zinc oxide round out the formula by absorbing excess sebum and drawing out impurities during the drying phase. The result is a multi-action exfoliant that works on more than one level simultaneously, which is why it can deliver visible results while remaining gentle enough for use two to three times per week.
