How to Use:

- Gently massage into the skin using circular motions until fully absorbed, focusing on particularly rough patches.
- Use once or twice daily, preferably on clean skin. For daytime use, follow with a broad-spectrum sunscreen on exposed areas, as exfoliating ingredients can increase sun sensitivity.
- For best results, use consistently as part of your regular body care routine and avoid combining with other strong exfoliants on the same area unless advised by a dermatologist.
