Thanks to Reviva Labs for sending me this to review!
This is not your conventional exfoliator, you apply it, wait 3-5 minutes and peel it off.

I left this on about 6-7 minutes and didn't have irritation, I don't find it to burn my skin or tingle, but it did irritate my eyes slightly. I believe it's the scent because my eyes can be quite sensitive.

I'm not a fan of the scent, it smells like a cross between fresh peppermint, and pepper to me.

However the scent is no big problem because the product itself really worked for me.

I would suggest if you plan to use this to set aside 20 minutes just because peeling it off can be a little time consuming (fun though!) Once peeled off my skin instantly looked brighter!

I had a slight tan and sunburn, this did remove my tan, but it also lightened my sunburn from being red to pink, my skin also looked more dewy.

Usually the problem I have with exfoliators is that they don't remove all of the dead skin, since my skin is quite dry it tends to be flaky (yuck) & usually any exfoliators or cleansers will dry out my skin worse, this didn't.

The texture is quite thick and grainy.
I feel like this does double duty because it exfoliates as you apply it with the grains, but it also helps remove the skin once it's dried and peeled off.

Advantages

Brightens
Exfoliates well
Not tested on animals

Disadvantages

A little pricey, but it will last you a while
Scent

Overall I recommend, it does what an exfoliator should do.
If you have any additional questions about this product feel free to ask.

  1. I feel so dumb.

    You have written (Out of 5) under your star rating. I thought the 5 was an S and it was out of stock! I couldn't figure out why you kept reviewing things that were out of stock :) I'm glad I understand, things make much more sense now!

    I didn't find it to irritate my skin, but of course you have to be careful and peel it off, not scratch it off as I have done before haha :)
