"This micro-resurfacing skin treatment has natural enzymes and volcanic micro-minerals that will exfoliate skin without irritation, revealing a smoother and more radiant complexion."
This is another product that came in my first Beauty Army box and that I had also never heard of until receiving it. Apparently CellCeutical products are popular among the celebrity and Hollywood elite crowd. For myself, this product was a fail.
The cream is thick and has extremely fine grit. If you have sensitive skin or dislike harsh exfoliation I would not recommend this product. I felt like I was rubbing sand on my face. Ouch! I must say that after I did this (while still in the shower) my face felt soft but I just wasn't loving the sharp gritty texture. However, after getting out of the shower my face was red, raw and dry. I wasn't happy! It claims "without irritation" but that just wasn't so for me.
I do have sensitive skin so that probably has a lot to do with it but the "resurfacing" part was all I felt like it did. I do not have this issue with other less gritty products so I definitely felt like the texture was the problem for my skin irritation. The next day I didn't feel like it had done anything different than my less harsh alternatives. It might not show results right away so i'll give it that but i'm not willing to feel red and raw to find those results.
So my thoughts are give it a try if you don't have sensitive skin or like really gritty textured treatments but otherwise stay away. For those of us who have sensitive skin I just don't think this would be the product for you. I would still like to give some of their other products a try but will not be repurchasing this one.
I did decide to use the rest of the product (i'm not one for waste) on my feet. Haha! It doesn't say that it's made just for the face and I don't have a problem with gritty texture on my feet. I definitely wouldn't spend the full size price for "micro-resurfacing" my feet though. ;)
For those who are interested, you can pick up a full size (2ozs) for $47.50
Have you heard of this brand or tried this product? Do you use anything by CellCeuticals that you do love? If you don't, what exfoliation product do you use?
