KEY INGREDIENTS

L-Mandelic Acid

A softly exfoliating AHA with BHA power, mandelic acid is able to work both on the surface of the skin and within pores for deep but gentle exfoliation. The prefixed 'L' indicates the ingredient chosen is most biologically compatible with your skin, meaning optimal results and minimal irritation.
L-Lactic Acid

A gentle AHA that softly exfoliates your skin, while deeply hydrating for a nourished complexion.
Salicylic Acid

Decongesting and exfoliating from within the pore, this BHA breaks down the clogged oil and skin cells that can contribute to enlarged pores and blemishes.
Glycerin

A natural humectant which traps moisture within the skin to leave it hydrated and comfortable.
Mangosteen Peel Extract

Rich in natural antioxidants, mangosteen helps to protect the skin from free radical damage which can trigger premature ageing.
Full Ingredients & Precautions

THE SCIENCE BEHIND THE FORMULA

A dual-action cleanser, Surface Radiance Cleanse uses both AHA and BHA power to gently break down impurities and slough off dead skin. AHAs L-mandelic acid and lactic acid, work on the upper layers of the skin to free dead skin cells so they can be easily exfoliated away. Salicylic acid, a BHA, works deeper into the pores to help break down blockages which can lead to enlarged pores and imperfections. By gently exfoliating the upper layers of the skin, the skin's exfoliation cycle is supercharged, resulting in a visibly fresher and clarified complexion.

FAQS

What's the difference between Surface Radiance Cleanse and Pore Cleanse Gel Intense?

+
Both gel cleansers have features in common, with both containing active AHA and BHA ingredients. These ingredients are best suited for normal to oily skin types up to twice a day or, for sensitive to dry skins, up to once a day - or whenever a deeper cleanse is required. The core difference is related to the type of benefits each cleanser brings to your skin. While Surface Radiance Cleanse is designed for skin smoothing and brightening benefits as well as targeted action on dullness and uneven skin texture, Pore Cleanse Gel Intense is specifically designed with oilier skin types in mind. It works on reducing unwanted shine caused by excess oil while visibly minimising pores.
Can I use Surface Radiance Cleanse during pregnancy?

+
As general guidance, this product does not contain any ingredients which we would recommend to avoid during pregnancy, unless advised by your doctor.
Can I use my vitamin C serum after Surface Radiance Cleanse?

+
Absolutely. In fact, we recommend you do so to enhance the smoothing and brightening results of this formula as much as possible.
When can I use Surface Radiance Cleanse?

+
You can use Surface Radiance cleanse up to twice a day - once in the morning and once in the evening. We recommend twice-a-day use for normal to oily skin types. For dry or sensitive skin, we suggest using up to 2 times per week.
