This exfoliator is just average. I would not repurchase as I do not feel that I has very good exfoliating properties for myself.
It may work better for other skin types but for me it didn't seem to make a difference. It smells good though :)

Gentle for older skin
-12.16.12
Nice texture, much gentler than the other Clarins exfoliators that I've used...and have now come to realize that maybe it's time to switch! I recommend that ladies in their 50s give this a try. Less abrasive and I don't see any negative changes to my skin as a result.

Simply ok

This is a very gentle, low-grade exfoliator with mild exfoliating beads . I should have read the description more thoroughly when it says, "micro beads," they really mean it. So for what this is, I can say it works well but I was looking for something more abrasive. My face felt soft, bit dry afterwards, but this is not what I thought it would be.

Cleans and firms in one step
-02.19.12
Quick Take: gentle, effective, firms and cleans, safe for all skin tyoes
This is a favorite cleanser in my home, and one I personally recommend to anyone whose skin can use a bit of firming. While not the usual result of cleansers, my skin benefits from this excellent Clarins product by being thoroughly clean and firmer in appearance. Love it!

Esthetician favorite
-01.08.12
Quick Take: gentle, easy, pain free, glow inducing
I am a licensed esthetician, and as you can imagine, I have tried sooooooooOOOOooooo many exfoliants! This is my favorite right now and I can't imagine it ever not being in my top 3. It's creamy, light, has round beads that don't scratch, and you only need a pea sized amount for your whole face.
Every time I use this I see results- bright happy skin with no redness or irritation. I think with continued use my skin will look even better. I use it on slightly damp skin 2-3x a week. You can also leave it on for 5-10 minutes as a mask and then massage off.

Gives a fantastic glow to your skin
-12.02.11
It's a little awkward putting on the exfoliator on dry skin and rubbing my skin away (as instructed on the packaging), but it left my skin with an amazing glow that lasted into the next day.

Quick Take: gentle
I love it ! I have sensitive skin, and as always I can perfectly tolerate Clarins products. And this stuff is just amazing. I used it for the 1st time a couple of weeks ago and I could see and feel the results immediately. It gently exfoliates and brighten your skin at the same time. Definitely recommend it !

LOVE IT
-07.20.11
Quick Take: not too harsh feels a bit sandy on your face, amazing makes your skin look and feel young
This stuff is awesome. Makes your skin so soft and pretty after use. I used it for the first time last week and I thought my skin looked great the rest of the day. I feel prettier every time I use it. This is the first time I've felt this way about a product. I like the way others feel but I've never felt like my skin looked great the entire day like I do with this one. :)
