Over the years, I’ve taken to using a few staple products for exfoliation and I’ve stuck with them because they work gently. I had the chance to try dr. brandt PoreDermabrasion pore perfecting exfoliator which sets out to deep clean pores and smooth skin texture. I would consider this product a more intense exfoliation than what I typically use.
According to the website, dr. brandt PoreDermabrasion is a professional grade physical and chemical exfoliator. I followed the instructions and gently massaged the product on my dampened face for 1 minute and then allowed 1 minute to let it sit on the skin and deep clean pores. Afterward my face did indeed feel noticeably smoother. Unfortunately, by the next morning my face also felt more dry than usual. I waited the 3 recommended days before using it again. After the second use, my skin was feeling unnaturally dry and I decided this particular exfoliation wasn’t for me. I would like to note that I did not experience any redness and my skin did not feel irritated, just extremely dry. The ingredients list includes fruit extracts and several oils (jasmine, bergamot, clove, peppermint to name a few) as well as salicylic acid and the micro crystals for exfoliation. I’m assuming this combo of ingredients was just too much for my skin. I’m sure there are plenty of you who will love this product though!
Product received from iFabbo for review, all opinions expressed are my own.
Have you tried this product yet? Do you have a favorite exfoliating product to share?
A girlfriend of mine was recommending this brand the other day. Thanks for the review heading over to check out the site.
This sounds nice, I heard other products from this brand do really well for acne so I think I’ll look into them!

I have such oily skin, I wonder if this wouldn’t be great for me. I love a good exfoliation.

That’s too bad it wasn’t a good fit for you!
This scrub has a very interesting texture!
I have the same Exuviance product that Erika has, and I love it! It’s too bad this one dried out your skin so much because I’ve heard such good things about Dr Brandt products!
