Exfoliation

What does the product description say?

Rich in the bioactive BLUE LAGOON SILICA, the iconic Silica Mud Mask draws out impurities as it deep-cleanses and clarifies skin.

Source: N/A

This product does not contain effective exfoliating ingredients. It might be able to deliver physical exfoliation, that is scrub off some of the dead cells on the surface of the skin. We do not recommend physical exfoliation, because it is not uniform (some bits of skin can get exfoliated too much while others not at all). It can also traumatize the skin and aggrevate acne and other skin conditions.
