Product Review: Facetheory!

The Glycolic Acid Face & Body Scrub: Product Review

A bestseller & highly rated Scrub from Facetheory, offered in Mandarin scent & unscented is a gentle yet capable, results driven scrub that’s ideal for both face & body. It features 2% glycolic acid + 1% salicylic acid. The addition of natural jojoba grains combine to give you a non-irritating exfoliating treatment.

My experience: I first splash warm water on my face then proceed to gently massage in this thick, creamy scrub for about 1 minute. It sorta creates a pleasing paste like mask, which I then leave on for another minute. (Massage any leftover on the back of your hands - they’ll thank you for this extra step!) The light mandarin oil scent is divine & definitely adds a lot to this routine. Rinsing with warm water + cleansing cloth is the most efficient way for me to remove since it is a bit of a thicker formula.

This product contains alpha/beta hydroxy acids, so I’m sure to avoid using on the same day as any retinol routines. Since I have dry skin, I only utilize this one time per week.

For a noteworthy mini facial use this scrub after Facetheory’s Vitamin C Cream Cleanser then finish with their Relaxing Night Cream = a trifecta of skincare routines!

It’s also a wonderful body scrub - especially effective for back of upper arms which for me is a problem area that tends to get extra dry & rough! This scrub really helps with that - creating a smooth canvas to follow with one of my go-to moisturizers! I was initially interested in this scrub due to its multi-tasking versatility - I do love a good multipurpose product!

Would you use a product that designed for both face & body??

Dynamic Duo!! New Skincare Series

New Series

Dynamic Duos!! I’ve noticed lately that I have some products that are wonderful alone but when paired with a friend they become a total superhero team! So I thought I’d start a skincare series featuring some of my favorite Dynamic Duos...kicking off today with...

The Overnight Exfoliator + Hyaluronic Acid from Good Molecules!!

The Overnight Exfoliator: this nighttime treatment features a 10% AHA + BHA combo punch  to combat the visible signs of aging & blemishes! It claims you will wake up with smoother, more radiant skin... AND YOU WILL!! You might feel a bit of a sting upon application but that disappears quickly. I let it absorb, then immediately layer on their HA. The recommended dosage is 3 times per week, which is just about what I’ve been doing. I really appreciate the quality & efficacy of this affordable product - (1oz at $6.00 USD) making high quality skincare much more accessible!! ❤️

The Hyaluronic Acid: a lightweight, water-like serum created to draw moisture to your skin. This one contains three different types of HA and is the ideal weight & formula to layer with all your other products! I love to pair with the Overnight Exfoliator during PM routine for the perfect Dynamic Duo! ❤️❤️  I also layer with my morning serums as it helps my skin absorb other products like essence & moisturizer. Priced at $6.00 USD/1oz.

Tip: I love how the Good Molecules website offer suggestions on how to pair their products, creating a “bundle” for easier shopping.

Have you tried this brand yet? What’s your fave Dynamic Duo??
