Aesop Purifying Facial Exfoliating Paste 75ml

Aesop succeeds at combining both beauty and brains – a mash-up of old school philosophies and new tech disciplines – that result in products which not only work marvels, but look rather lovely whilst they’re at it… Purifying Facial Exfoliant Paste is the perfect product for those who love a thorough cleanse and polish – sufficiently ‘scrubby’ to feel like it’s done something, without leaving your face feeling over-exposed. Brilliant for men as well as women (it helps prevent ingrowing beards), this is a bathroom cabinet must-have; brightening everything up nicely, and soothing senses with essential oil of lavender. Aesop’s range is balanced between nature and technology, because that’s where they’ve found the best skin care benefit – the fact that their botanicals smell heavenly and have Vogue-worthy packaging is a happy bi-product of the brand’s dedication to prolonging skin health and wellbeing.

A beautiful, cream-based exfoliant developed to polish and purify most skin types (except the very easily aggravated), Aesop’s Purifying Facial Exfoliant Paste stars ultra-finely milled river-bed quartz suspended in a lactic acid-rich emulsion. Delivering both chemical and physical resurfacing, the quartz particles gently ‘scrub’ the skin – stimulating circulation to oxygenate healthy cells, and lightly slough away dirt and debris – while lactic acid simultaneously breaks the bonds which bind dulling dead cells to skin’s surface, leaving your face feeling velvety smooth and soft. Ideal for congested, lacklustre complexions, this eliminates pore-clogging grime which in turn, reduces likelihood of breakouts – skin quickly looks clearer and brighter, with refined texture and renewed luminosity.

Dispense half a teaspoon of Purifying Facial Exfoliant Paste into the palm of your hand. Work over face and neck, including the lips. Avoid the immediate eye area. Allow the Quartz and Lactic Acid to gently exfoliate by employing minimal pressure. Rinse thoroughly with warm water, then follow with your preferred Aesop toner and hydrator.
