A Hardcore Facial Scrub For Hardcore Facial Scrub People

WHAT: Lancer Skincare The Method: Polish

WHY: The mere concept of a physical exfoliator is at best complex, and at worst, reviled as the single worst thing you can do to your face. Some derms say they’re fine (except plastic beads or balls), and others say chemical exfoliants like THIS and THIS are far better, specifically for sensitive skin.

But we are nothing if not a bunch of middle aged ladies who like to live on the edge. And the edge, for us, comes in the form of this VERY INTENSE daily face polish by dermatologist Dr. Lancer.

Comprised of pumpkin and pomegranate enzymes, this very finely milled scrub creates an an extremely warm sensation on your face once you smear it on, almost alarmingly so.

But after you’ve rinsed it off, your skin will feel so unspeakably soft, that for a moment you will vividly believe the hands of time have turned backward, and that you are now caressing the perfect, poreless, unpocked face of a pre-adolescent you, before worries of melasma and property taxes and control issues took hold.

I felt it necessary to paint that little picture of youth to help you justify the $115 dollar price tag for a FACE SCRUB. But come on. Meryl Streep paid Isabella Rossellini far more for that little glowing purple elixir and that turned out great!

Note: not recommended for anyone dipping their toe into this category of skin care for the first time, and also not recommended for people with truly sensitive skin. Everyone else? Have at it.
