Elemis Dynamic Resurfacing Facial Pads - 60 Count

These pads are gentle enough for twice-daily use, in the morning and evening, after cleansing your face. However, if you are new to chemical exfoliation, start with once a day or every other day to allow your skin to adjust.

No, there is no need to rinse your face after using the pads. Allow the product to absorb into your skin before applying subsequent serums or moisturizers.

The Elemis Dynamic Resurfacing Facial Pads are formulated to be gentle and are suitable for most skin types, especially those concerned with dullness, uneven texture, hyperpigmentation, and enlarged pores. They are designed to be gentle even on delicate skin.

Tri-Enzyme Technology is a patented blend of three enzymes (subtilisin, protease, and papain) developed by Elemis. It works to gently yet effectively break down and remove dead skin cells from the skin's surface without disrupting the skin's natural protective barrier.

It is generally not recommended to use these pads in conjunction with other strong chemical exfoliants (like other AHAs, BHAs, or retinoids) to avoid over-exfoliation and potential irritation. If in doubt, consult with a skincare professional.

Yes, as with any exfoliating product containing AHAs, these pads can increase your skin's sensitivity to the sun. It is crucial to always follow up with a broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or higher during the day.

While generally gentle, some initial tingling can occur. If irritation persists, reduce usage to once a day or every other day until skin adjusts. Ensure you are not using other strong exfoliants simultaneously.

Ensure the lid is securely fastened immediately after each use. Store the container in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight or heat. If pads are already dry, their effectiveness will be diminished.

Ensure consistent twice-daily (or daily) use as directed. Evaluate your overall skincare routine to ensure it complements the pads, and consider if other products might be counteracting their effects. Patience is key, as skin renewal cycles take time.
