Product Description

WHAT IS IT?

One of our original Tropic products, this iconic exfoliator carefully loosens and lifts dead skin cells to reveal smoother, softer, more radiant skin.

WHAT DOES IT DO?

Unlike other exfoliators that can be drying and aggressive, this certified-organic formula uses gentle bamboo silica spheres to buff, as well as fatty acid-filled macadamia oil and vitamin E to replenish any moisture loss. Even sensitive skin won’t feel tight or overworked.

A twist of sweet orange, lemon and lime essential oils creates an invigorating aroma that leaves you feeling pepped up and ready to go.

Better still, Face Smooth is available as part of our money-saving Essential Collection. Buy today and save £22.

Independent clinical study. Average results after 28 days.

How To Use

Best used in the shower, gently massage a small amount into your wet face, neck and décolletage, being careful to avoid any sensitive areas like your eyes.

Then, rinse with warm water to wash any remaining exfoliating particles away and reveal super-soft skin.

Please Note: Natural separation may occur at high temperatures.

Shake well before use.

Ingredients

Macadamia Oil

Not just delicious to eat, these Australian nuts are filled with oleic, linoleic and palmitoleic fatty acids which basically means that they boost your skin’s resilience and keep it super supple. They also contain a hefty portion of vitamin E to nourish and replenish any dry areas and because the oil is a similar concentration to our skin’s sebum, it soaks it up easily without clogging pores.

Bamboo Silica

Extracted from the inside of a bamboo leaf, this naturally occurring source of silica is known as bamboo ‘tears’ and has the ability to break down the bonds that cause dead skin cells and dirt to stick around on your face for longer than they’re meant to. When combined with ground rice and sea salt, nothing can get in the way of this industrious trio.

Vitamin E

A natural anti-inflammatory, it targets dry, patchy areas to gently nourish your skin, one delicate fold at a time.

Why Jojoba Oil Is Your Skin's Best Friend

At the heart of our Smoothing Cleanser is jojoba oil: a golden, skin-loving liquid that closely mimics your skin's own natural oils. That means it deeply cleansers without disrupting your delicate moisture barrier. Rich in vitamins E and B-complex, jojoba oil gently melts away makeup, sunscreen, and daily build-up, while keeping your skin nourished and balanced. It's non-comedogenic (so it won't clog pores), making it ideal for all skin types, from dry and sensitive to oily and blemish-prone. We chose jojoba for its versatility and skin compatibility, but you'll stay for the silky-soft glow it leaves behind.

I’ve been using face smooth

Q&A

Hi, similar to Angela, I love this product but I can barely get it out of the tube. It was difficult to get out from first use but has now become almost impossible to get out. Do you have any tips?!: Hi Louisa, thank you for getting in touch. We will be in contact with you directly.
Love the face smooth but was wondering why it is so hard to squeeze from the tube. I have to squeeze quite hard with both hands to always get it out the tube. Every tube I’ve brought is exactly the same way.: Hi Lisa, thank you for getting in touch. We will get in contact with your directly.
Hi, I used this again today and it seemed quite gritty and hard to rub into my skin. Is this normal? My friend commented on how red my skin looks-wondering if I’m allergic to it or if it’s gone funny.: Hi Kirstie, thank you for getting in touch. We will be in touch to discuss this directly with you.
Hi, I absolutely love this exfoliator, it’s the best I’ve ever used. Strangely mine has become very hard and quite dry and I have to use all the strength in both my hands to squeeze any out of the tube. Is there anything I can do to soften it up and make it more useable? Thanks: Hi Angela, thank you for getting in touch. We're so pleased to hear you love our Face Smooth! We will be in touch with you directly to help you further with this.
How often can Face Smooth be used?: Hi Joanna, thank you for getting in touch. Our Face Smooth brightening polish can be used a couple of times a week, up to every day, depending on your skin type. You would use more frequently if you are on the drier side. We hope this helps!
Can I use face smooth and fruit peel once a week each, a few days apart?: Hi Leigh-Anne, thank you for getting in touch with us. You can use them both in a week however we would recommend one be used at the beginning of the week and the other used at the end of the week to allow enough time to prevent the skin getting irritated. We hope this helps
