I use it whenever I feel like doing a deep exfoliation without using an abrasive scrub. Leave it on for five to ten minutes, depending on your skin's sensitivity, and wash off completely. A word of caution, though: because this product is so potent, patch testing is highly recommended. Reviewers say it works wonders, particularly on acne-prone or dull skin.
Get it on Amazon Canada for $31.99.
