Product Description

WHAT IS IT?

Bursting with natural acids, this facial exfoliating serum gently gets rid of dead skin cells and reduces dullness.

WHAT DOES IT DO?

We’ve used an intelligent trio of alpha, beta, and polyhydroxy acids in this powerful formula. The acids exfoliate at different levels due to their varying molecular size (which also means less sensitivity), effectively removing build-up and boosting cell renewal.

Also infused with refining papaya enzymes and brightening Australian lime pearl, you’ll reveal healthier, more radiant looking skin within 24 hours.

Clinical Results

Independent clinical study. Measurement of skin smoothness. Average results after 28 days.

How To Use

Apply a generous layer to your face, neck and décolletage after cleansing and toning.

If you have slightly sensitive skin, start slow and use it just once a week, but if you use this product regularly or have resilient skin, you can opt for alternate evenings/three times a week.

Avoid the eye area and don’t worry if you feel a slight tingling, this is just the exfoliating enzymes working their magic. If you have very sensitive or irritated skin, we wouldn’t recommend this product for you.

Leave for up to 10 minutes before applying your favourite moisturiser and oil.

And don’t forget your SPF!

If you use Glow Berry or Pure Lagoon in your routine, we recommend leaving twelve hours before using Fruit Peel.

So, apply either Glow Berry or Pure Lagoon in the morning, and use Fruit Smooth in the evening.

If you use Sun Drops, apply this product on the evenings you don’t use Fruit Smooth.

Ingredients

Papaya Enzymes

Breaking down and dissolving keratin protein that causes skin to be lumpy and bumpy as well as loosening dead skin cells that clog pores and cause flakiness, this natural skin smoother can also improve hyper-pigmentation.

Lime Pearl Extract

Native to Australia, this beautifully named fruit doesn’t just contain AHAs that leave skin feeling smooth, it has a heap of citric acids in it too that brighten and even complexions. Plus it’s well tolerated so even sensitive skin types can get involved in the exfoliation process.

Hydroxy Acids

Using a variety of alpha, beta and polyhydroxy acids in all shapes and sizes, 9% of this peel is dedicated to these amazing exfoliating agents. Sweeping away build up and stimulating new cells, they dispose of debris so you can start afresh with a cleaner complexion than before.

Why Jojoba Oil Is Your Skin's Best Friend

At the heart of our Smoothing Cleanser is jojoba oil: a golden, skin-loving liquid that closely mimics your skin's own natural oils. That means it deeply cleansers without disrupting your delicate moisture barrier. Rich in vitamins E and B-complex, jojoba oil gently melts away makeup, sunscreen, and daily build-up, while keeping your skin nourished and balanced. It's non-comedogenic (so it won't clog pores), making it ideal for all skin types, from dry and sensitive to oily and blemish-prone. We chose jojoba for its versatility and skin compatibility, but you'll stay for the silky-soft glow it leaves behind.
