Do you need to exfoliate for this to work?

Yes I used glycolic body lotion as an exfoliating cream n also scrubbed my skin everyday and I'm 2-3 shades lighter. Hope I helped

Yes, I think so because I didn't notice a difference in skin color when I used it. I was also told to mix it with Retin A gel. But overall it keeps skin clear of dark marks.

It would be a good idea to exfoliate up to a week before using the laser, but I would not exfoliate while using it. Your skin will already be irritated by the laser, so you should not do both at the same time, in my opinion. Many experts suggest an exfoliating peel or treatment about a week before using the laser.

No. It works beautifully! Follow directions spray on and wipe with a soft cloth.

Nancy, you can use a lotion or oil with the crystals to make a nice exfoliating scrub. But you would have to rinse everything off afterwards. The crystals are extremely gritty and work by buffing and polishing your skin. They don't dissolve.

Yes, the formula of this product is designed to exfoliate outer layer of your skin and inside pores, evening out skin texture and tone. Results could be seen within a week of regular use.

no you have to buy any facial wash and just apply it directly to the brush. cetaphil, Clinique, neutrogena, whatever you use

It doesn't actually scrub. It is a very mild cleaning tool. I use it with charcoal soap and my complexion glows, I love it. It is not harsh but it does exfoliate mildly. You don't need to scrub your face to clean it.

It's a little rough for the face, so if you use it on the face, use it very gently. I use a facial scrub or mask when I want to exfoliate the skin on my face.

I don't think so. I use it after exfoliating or just washing my face. It's great for Hydrating your skin.

I don't think it's as good as others as keeping them at bay. I would say it's ok as long as you exfoliate daily. If you won't want to then go with another brand.

i feel that daily use with exfoliating body moisturizer definitely does. I don't think the cleanser alone is effective. If you want one product, the glytone body lotion is excellent for removing dry skin. Put it on and leave it over night.

I would say exfoliation is quite minimal with these. The main purpose is to clean makeup off gently. If I get really dry skin I have to do my own gentle exfoliation with a lactic acid cleanser. My skin is VERY sensitive so I needed a gentle cloth effective at removing makeup and this does the job.

So for me, I shave everyday AND exfoliate. That is the key, to exfoliate your skin to make sure you have "fresh" skin that will hold the colour better. If you are applying it everyday after you exfoliate then it will look natural and not build up.

No, there is not, but I use Olay Exfoliating Renewal Cleanser. It works very well.

Yes, I don't see why not. It is a great moisturizer besides an exfoliator. I have been putting it on the back of my thighs, I don't get acne there but my skin always felt dry there and not smooth. Happy to say my skin feels very smooth & soft there now!

Re: the other response "no grit/ texture" you don't need a cleanser to be an exfoliant, because that's what the clarisonic is for. You just need the cleanser to be a bit foamy and this does it.
