What This Formula Does
Brightening Face & Hand Exfoliator with Kojic Acid is a dual-action formula that physically and chemically exfoliates the skin — buffing away dead cells with Perlite micro-particles while Kojic Acid works beneath the surface to fade dark spots and uneven pigmentation. Shea Butter and Jojoba Seed Oil nourish the skin as it exfoliates, so it emerges not just smoother and clearer, but visibly softer and more radiant. For face and hands only. Certified 98% natural origin. By ShopDrop Cosmetics.
Key Ingredients
Kojic Acid — a naturally derived brightening agent that inhibits melanin production at the source, helping to fade dark spots, hyperpigmentation, and uneven skin tone over time.
Perlite — a gentle mineral exfoliant derived from volcanic rock that physically buffs away dead skin cells to reveal a smoother, more refined surface.
Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea) Butter — a deeply nourishing butter that replenishes skin moisture immediately after exfoliation, preventing dryness and irritation.
Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil — a lightweight, skin-compatible oil that softens and conditions the skin throughout the exfoliation process.
Tocopherol (Vitamin E) — a natural antioxidant that supports skin recovery and helps protect freshly exfoliated skin from environmental stress.
How to Use
Step 1 — Apply a small amount to damp skin on the face or hands (for face and hands only) and massage gently in circular motions.
Step 2 — Work across the target area for 1–2 minutes, then rinse thoroughly with warm water.
Step 3 — Follow with moisturiser. Use 2–3 times per week. Always apply SPF during the day when using brightening ingredients.
