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 Fine grained kind to skin and Planet I have been using this exfoliator for years. Twice a week on a Wednesday and Saturday I exfoliate then cleanse, tone and apply my moisturiser. It is very gentle and rinses off well. Leaves my skin smooth and glowing. I like the fact that it is biodegradable and that the grains are very small not harsh on the skin.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Daily essential for me! Have reintroduced this to my skincare routine recently after a few years of using a salicylic acid product. It is just as good and so gentle. I use it every morning after cleansing at night with cleanse snd polish. Its so kind to the skin. Please don't stop making this I love it. My only issue is I much preferred the old pump style as there is kuchen less wastage.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Most Amazing Scent I chose this as a free sample with my order as I had not previously tried it. It provided the most gentle exfoliation unlike some which can feel ‘scratchy’. It also has the most amazing scent, I felt like it was a real treat for my skin. Unfortunately it was out of stock online when I tried to purchase in the sale. I can understand why it is so popular!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great product I love this exfoliater it is gentle on your skin and leaves it so soft. I have tried others but this is the best. Your skin feels so clean and fresh and your moisturiser just glides on and you can feel it being drawn into your skin. Your skin is glowing after you have exfoliated with this product.🤗

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Aptly Named It says ‘gentle’ and it really is - even on my easily irritated skin I can happily use this a few times a week. It feels very comfortable to use and leaves skin feeling deeply cleansed but never rough or dry. . I feel it has smoothed out some bumpy uneven patches of skin leaving it smooth and clear. Will be glad when full size is available again.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great product but always out of stock Liz Earle Gentle Exfoliator is a great product but it is never available to buy on the site and places like boots are always out of stock too ... so if you are lucky enough to have bought 2 or 3 in advance you have a fantastic product and it makes your skin feel amazing ... but it is frustrating that such low stock is produced ...

Rated 5 out of 5 by from What a lovely surprise I was given a free sample of this facial exfoliator with my recent order. What a treat!

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
