Cocoa

COCOA BUTTER
(Theobroma cacao)

Famous for its excellent emollient properties, we source our cocoa butter from West Africa, where fermented beans of the cocoa tree are roasted, cracked and ground to give a powdery solid called cocoa mass, from which cocoa butter is pressed.

Eucalyptus

EUCALYPTUS ESSENTIAL OIL
(Eucalyptus globulus)

Renowned for its purifying properties and invigorating aroma, we source our eucalyptus from China, where our essential oil is steam distilled from the leaves of the fast-growing eucalyptus tree.

Jojoba

JOJOBA BEADS
(Jojoba esters)

Prized for their gentle exfoliating action, jojoba beads leave skin clearer, brighter and more polished. To create our naturally biodegradable beads that are kind to the environment, pale yellow jojoba oil is hydrogenated to create a hard white wax, which is then warmed and dropped from a height to create smooth spheres.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Fabulous gentle exfoliation I always use Liz Earle gentle face exfoliator emerging from winter to spring. It is amazing for sensitive (& aging!) skin; it isn’t harsh but provides enough power to shed all the build up from being indoors over the colder months. This product brings back a fresh glow to my face and perks me up ready for the new season !

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Great product for gentle exfoliating I love this gentle exfoliator. I have difficult skin with acne rosacea and keratosis pilaris on my face but this helps keep it smoother. However, I don’t like the new tube style. It is difficult to handle if you are not very dexterous. Please bring back pump container.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Very effective However, I do not like the change you have made in the tubing and screw lid which is very awkward to screw back on. Also the exfoliator does not smell as nice as before.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Lovely gentle exfoliation I’ve been using this once or twice a week for several weeks now. My skin definitely feels clearer and looks healthier after use. This smells beautiful and the grains are not too harsh like others that I have tried. Also doesn’t leave skin dry afterwards. Love this and will buy again.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Beautiful skin at Christmas I was lucky enough to be given a Liz Earle advent calendar this year and as a teacher, in the winter term , it was the nicest and most useful gift. One of the advent gifts was the Gentle Face Exfoliator, a beautiful light aromatic cream which takes away the winters unwanted skin and leaves your complexion clear and fresh. I was so impressed with the results that I immediate ordered a full size , along with a toner. The 12 days of Christmas Liz Earle advent calendar really saved my skin pre Christmas and I am so pleased to have discovered this delightful exfoliator

Rated 5 out of 5 by from My husband can't do without this product As with everything in the daily care range I recommended this to my husband as used myself and got friends using this as part of the cleanse and tone routine. He loves it and has less skin breakout and ingrowing hair than he used to, he loves it and won't be without it now.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Disappointed As a faithful and enthusiastic user of Liz Earl products for the past 20 odd years, I am finding the recent product changes not for the better. My latest purchase of the gentle face exfoliator seems to be a little light on the exfoliating element, and more like a cream, despite assurance from customer services that the formula hasn't changed.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Skin feels refreshed! I was sceptical when buying the exfoliator cream but I have to say it works so well if applied properly. I used to think you slapped on a lot of these sort of products but guided by the assistant I followed the process. And I’m so glad I did.

Rated 2 out of 5 by from Poor new packaging I have used the genie face exfoliation for years & love it. Although the product is still lovely, I really dislike the new packaging. The metal tube looks cheap & is difficult to use as it dents where squeezed. I also think it is not as economical as the pump which dispensed the correct amount each time. Sadly I am now reconsidering whether it is worth the price

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Gentle exfoliation I have used LE gentle exfoliator for many years. It is as its name suggests, very gentle. Although it feels as though it’s doing its job it never leaves my skin feeling dry or damaged . I have ageing skin so have to be quite careful and would not use a harsh product. I use it once or twice a week to give a deeper clean and get rid of any blocked pores etc.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Gentle to skin I have used this for a long time, makes my skin feel soft, exfoliated without stripping the skin of natural oils. The only thing I preferred was when it was in a pump dispenser, just easier to use especially if you’re in the shower.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Gentle and effective A couple of months ago I used a new skincare range which brought me out in dry,red patches and tingling skin. I sought advice from Caroline Archer who suggested I use the Probiotic range and this has proved to be amazing,getting my skin back to normal.When I ordered the Probiotic,I received the gentle exfoliator as a free gift but was very wary of starting to reintroduce exfoliator,oil etc back into my routine in case my skin reacted again.However, I needn’t have worried and have been using the exfoliator once a week for a few weeks with no problems.It really deep cleans my skin without being too abrasive.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Gentle but effective I bought this a couple of weeks ago as I felt my skin was looking dull and I was starting to get breakouts .I have used it twice a week and the difference is great , my skin has started to look healthy and breakouts have stopped .It is so easy to use , takes a couple of minutes and feels gentle on my skin .An added bonus to me is the lovely small .

I know you use this after cleansing, but should it be used on dry or wet skin? Thanks 

Asked by: Riah
It’s best on damp skin. The exfoliator itself is great, however due to the dreadfully impractical packaging I just cant use it anymore.

Could you tell me if you are actively looking at different packaging options for this product in light of the reviews or not? I won’t be buying it again until the packaging is sorted.

Asked by: Leona
Hi there, thank you for your question. As part of our journey to tread as lightly as possible with the impact we have on the planet, we have updated our mask and treatment range to be much easier to recycle from home. Our new packaging is made from recyclable aluminium. Not only this, the range looks much more consistent with one another, making it easier to find the targeted solution for your skincare need. Whilst we can confirm we are not currently looking to change this packaging, we will certainly pass your feedback on to our Packaging Team. Comments from customers really help us when making future improvements. In the meantime, we can confirm that our Gentle Face Exfoliator 15ml travel size does not come in an aluminium tube, but instead comes in our recyclable plastic tubes. We hope this helps, but for any further assistance, please do contact our customer centre team on 01983 813 913, or email us at naturallyactive@lizearle.com. - The Liz Earle Customer Centre Team.

What is the difference between your 2 exfoliators please?

Asked by: TrudyW
I use Cleanse and Polish most nights, the Gentle Exfoliator about once a week. I am aged 70. My daughter aged 42 uses Cleanse and Polish every day both morning and night as a 'refreshing daily cleanser' as she describes it. She uses the Gentle Exfoliator every few days, a.m. only as a deep scrub. I love the the Brightening Treatment Mask and use it about 2 or 3 times a week in the morning. It is not like a heavy mud or mask which tightens on the skin, just revitalises and makes one feel and look good.

Gentle exfoliator says all skin types but on the back it says not for sensitive skin. 

Asked by: Bev62
Hi, thanks for getting in touch. If you have particularly sensitive skin, we would advise caution when using our Gentle Face Exfoliator due to the stimulating nature of this product. I hope this helps however, should you require any further assistance with this, please contact our Customer Centre by emailing naturallyactive@lizearle.com - The Liz Earle Beauty Co. Team

Hi, is this suitable for teenage acne? is the product non-comedogenic? How often should I use the scrub?

Asked by: mmauve
Hi, thank you for your question. Our Gentle Face Exfoliator is ideal for teenager acne prone skin types where it contains moisturising cocoa butter to soften skin, purifying eucalyptus and fine jojoba beads which gently buffs away dead skin cells and impurities to help clear up blackheads, blocked pores and congested skin. We would recommend using this 2-3 times a week. None of the products in the Liz Earle Naturally Active Skincare range have been tested for comedogenicity. However, we believe that one ingredient that could cause a product to be comedogenic is mineral oil and this is not something that is used in our skincare range, as we believe that plant oils are better for the skin. We hope this information helps. - The Liz Earle Beauty Co Team.

Is this an enzyme, chemical or physical scrub exfoliator? Thanks

Asked by: Rsr7690
Thank you for your question. We can confirm that our Gentle Face Exfoliator is a physical exfoliator where you lightly massage onto face and neck in circular movements, concentrating on the forehead, nose, chin and jawline, avoiding the eye area. It contains jojoba wax beads which are prized for their gentle exfoliating action, jojoba beads leave skin clearer, brighter and more polished. We hope this information helps. If you do require any further assistance with this, please email naturallyactive@lizearle.com, contact us via Social Media, or call our Customer Centre on 01983 813913 and we'd be happy to help - The Liz Earle Beauty Co Team
