This makes my face SO soft
This 2 part exfoliating duo is the best I have found yet for my skin. My skin is super sensitive and I haven't had a problem with this product. While it being 2 parts is sort of an inconvenience, it works so well it doesn't bother me a bit! Definitely recommend this product!!
I absolutely love this duo and it's now a part of my weekly skin routine. I was skeptical to try this product as my skin is very dry, and many exfolitators tend to dry it out even more. This does not dry out my skin at all, however, due to my skin type I only use it once a week.
The crystals smell absolutely beautiful! A light citrus scent. The crystals are somewhat abrasive, so if you have dry or sensitive skin like me, make sure to test it out before purchase....and I'd probably recommend to only use it once a week. Be warned - the activator is a liquid! I thought it was going to be more of a gel like consistency but it was not...it ended up everywhere - haha woops!
Immediately after use, my skin feels so smooth and supple! After a few weeks use, my dry patches were completely gone, and the size of my pores were decreased in size.
I would reccomend this product to anyone who feels like they have lost radiance in their skin. If you want a quick and easy exfoliation, this product may not be for you. It is a two step routine, and takes several minutes if done properly.
I absolutely love this product, my skin looks and feels amazing after just one. After a month, my skin has a more even complexion, brighter and just overall looks healthier. This removed any dry patches/dead skill cells I had on my face and even toned down any excess shine and oil.
This is a two step process so it wouldn't be for somebody who prefers a quick and easy exfoliation but it is very easy once you get started. You also only need to use it once or twice a week (depending on how oily you are), and once you start you'll appreciate your results.
Your first step is to apply the "Crystals" which come in a jar, this has such a great scent. It smells like fresh citrus fruits and actually has Orange Essential Oils listed in the ingredients. This is a pretty abrasive exfoliant though, it does say it is safe for sensitive skin but if are easily irritated I would try a sample first. I do get some minor redness after but it goes away after just a few moments and I also do not feel anything, I am just red.
The next step is to apply the activator. This stuff is VERY watery/runny, so be careful when opening the cap. That is a negative about this product, it would be much better, efficient and cleaner if this was in a "pump" form. Anyway, you apply this to your face and initially it is very cool and refreshing but it will warm up slightly. This also doesn't smell as good as the crystals, it actually doesn't smell like anything. This is the part of the product however that will activate any anti-aging ingredients and benefits.
If you are somebody who is VERY sensitive, you are able to mix the crystals and the activator together so you don't get such an abrasive exfoliant. I've done this and the results are the same, you still look and feel so much smoother and brighter afterwards, you will just lose the citrus scent. Also, when you do mix the two together it will almost look like a chemical reaction, it will start to bubble and become more of a foam than a scrub or exfoliant but like I said, you will still get the same effect.
I actually received this product for free but it is $75 at SDM which is pretty expensive. I only use it once a week to try and make it last as long as I can. But, this doesn't compare to other products. You can feel this product working even deep into your skin and the results are immediate, I do not get this with other products (or atleast not as quick/well).
I love this product! I wish I could say it was worth the money, but $75 is a lot of money for something I could easily find a comparable product for at a drug store price. However, if money weren't an issue I would re-purchase this every time I run out as it leaves my skin feeling so soft and smooth and visibly clean. Comparable to results of a spa facial
I use this product about once a week. I find it leaves my skin extremely soft and keeps it clear of blemishes.
NeoStrata represents the only skin care products I use, and this in one of my all-time favourites. Once a week (Saturday morning's long, relaxing shower) I exfoliate with the Resurfacing Duo. I have extremely sensitive skin, and found the first few uses caused a mild burning sensation, some redness, and peeling. Now, I love the warmth created when the activator is applied, and can't believe how soft and smooth my skin feels afterwards. At 46, my skin has never looked better.
I used to have this and it worked very well for me. I would use it once a week and it made my skin look and feel fresh, clear, and smooth. The only thing stopping me from purchasing it again is the price... I have found other products ways to exfoliate my skin for much cheaper.
