Why we stand behind it

For an instant complexion boost, consider this your facial in a bottle. This exfoliation treatment combines both physical and plant-based chemical exfoliants to cleanse the skin. It helps remove impurities to reveal a clearer, smoother complexion.

Formulated with high performing ingredients, our exfoliation system delivers physical exfoliation without scouring, while plant-based chemical exfoliants gently resurface skin.

Key ingredients

Jojoba Wax Beads: Naturally biodegradable, this gentle manual exfoliant polishes the skin to instantly remove dead skin cells.

Lactic Acid: As both a chemical exfoliant and a humectant, lactic acid is able to gently remove dead skin cells while hydrating the skin.

White Willow Bark: A natural form of BHA, white willow bark helps exfoliate.

What is an undertone?

An undertone is the color beneath the surface of your skin, which never changes (even with a tan). There are three types of undertones:

Pink/Cool

I see red or pink undertones around the perimeter of my face and neck.
My skin burns easily, but barely tans.
My skin looks better in silver jewelry than gold.

Neutral

I see both pink and yellow undertones around the perimeter of my face and neck.
My skin sometimes burns and sometimes tans.
My skin looks good in both gold and silver jewelry.

Yellow/Warm

I see yellow or golden undertones around the perimeter of my face and neck.
My skin rarely burns, but tans easily.
My skin looks better in gold jewelry than silver.

Usage

Massage 2 pumps of Illuminating Exfoliant onto damp skin for 20 seconds before rinsing thoroughly with lukewarm water.

Use 2-3 times a week in the evening.

Pro-tip

Emma's Tip: To supercharge your exfoliation, you can use your Illuminating Exfoliant as a mask. Apply it to dry skin and leave it on for 5-10 minutes to allow the AHAs and BHAs to deeply exfoliate. I then add a little water and massage the formulation into my face and neck for 1 minute before rinsing.

Reviews

Love this Exfoliant!!

"This exfoliant has completely transformed my skin, it is smoother, brighter, and more even-toned after just a few weeks. It's the one product I'd never give up. I also use this on my arms to help with KP and fine bumps and it's incredible"

Izzy (5/5)

Gentle but effective

"I have sensitive 56 year old skin and to be honest was reluctant to try another brand. Wow- so glad I did. My skin feels soft and yes, 'illuminated' after use. No irritation or redness. Made me feel more confident being without makeup ! Thank you - a game changer."

Robyn (5/5)

Loving this project

"This smells so so good; it's been super gentle on my skin which is fairly sensitive. My face is *glowing*, highly recommmend!"

Katie (5/5)

Best Face Exfoliator

"Got the refill pack as I wanted this to take overseas. I spend a lot of time in the sun/ocean and this combined with a konjac sponge works a treat. Refill pack is great for travel and I'll put it in my container when I get home."

Shay (5/5)

Illuminating Exfoliant

"I just want to say the BIGGEST THANK YOU to you for making such an amazing product such as the "Emma Lewisham Illuminating Exfoliant". I have very sensitive skin and have only used INNOXA for years. I have tried many other products that my Mum and sister have recommended that are for sensitive skin and reacted every time. I am now always very reluctant to trial any products, but after listening to your podcast and trialling my sister's Exfoliant three times now I can happily and confidently say my skin feels ok and no rash or swollenness. I am now happy to purchase the bottle myself. So once again I really appreciate you creating a product that uses natural ingredients that are happy for my face skin."

Cornes (5/5)

Amazing exfoliant

"This is hands down the best exfoliant I've used. It feels gentle whilst actually doing an amazing job with out feeling abrasive. My skin feels supple and soft afterwards."

Kimberley (5/5)

Gentle but highly effective exfoliant

"I love this exfoliant it is so gentle but really effective. It lasts a really long time and this is my first refill around a year after the initial purchase. The refill is very easy to use and I also had great customer service from Mia to help unclog the original pump"

Emma (5/5)

Fabulous

"What a beautiful exfoliant. The scent is delicate, which is important to me as I cannot tolerate strong scents. The result from using this was fabulous. My skin was so smooth and so soft, I love it."

Elle (5/5)

FAVORITE EXFOLIANT ON THE WHOLE PLANET

"The first night I tried this, I ran out of the bathroom screaming because my face lit up like a lightbulb. Boyfriend agreed. The clock turned back and when I looked in the mirror, my 31 year-old face looked like a baby's newborn bottom. It's quite a steal at this price considering it's a humongous bottle that lasts 1-2 years. I've tried other luxury chemical/physical exfoliants out there (double the price FYI) but they are either too irritating for my slightly sensitive skin, or the effects just aren't impressive enough. Plus they don't smell nearly as good as the refreshing floral scent of this one (similar to the Day Creme). I'm usually very greedy when it comes to trying out new skincare, but after 2 years of trying different exfoliants beyond this product, they just can't compete with Emma Lewisham. I rest my case and give up - sticking with this in the future because it's perfect in every way :)"

Rui (5/5)

Delicious smelling, luxurious feeling oil

"This product melted away all makeup and was easy to apply. It made the skin feel refreshed and plump after every wash. I think this oil would be great in winter when my skin feels drier. I was gifted a product sample to trial and review."
