OPA Resurface AHA + BHA Exfoliating Pads for Smoother, Brighter-Looking Skin - 60 Pads
OPA Resurface Exfoliating Pads
OPA Resurface Exfoliating Pads from OPA Nutrition are pre-soaked pads with three exfoliating acids: lactic acid, mandelic acid and salicylic acid, in a botanical base of chamomile, licorice root, green tea, witch hazel, willow bark and uva-ursi extracts. They help smooth skin texture, reduce the look of dullness and fine lines, and boost radiance.
Sunburn alert: this product contains an alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) that may increase your skin's sensitivity to the sun and particularly the possibility of sunburn. Use a sunscreen, wear protective clothing, and limit sun exposure while using this product and for a week afterwards. Discontinue use if redness or irritation occurs. Do not ingest.
Who it is for
Anyone whose skin looks dull or uneven, or who wants smoother-feeling skin from a simple evening exfoliating step. If your skin is sensitive, introduce the pads gradually.
What it does
- Three acids, three jobs: Lactic acid (AHA) smooths the surface, mandelic acid (a gentle AHA) refines texture, and salicylic acid (BHA) helps clear pores, for smoother, brighter-looking skin.
- Brighter, more even look: Licorice root and uva-ursi leaf extracts help skin look more radiant and even, while helping reduce the look of dullness and fine lines.
- Soothing botanicals: Chamomile flower, green tea leaf, witch hazel and willow bark extracts round out the formula to help skin feel calm and refreshed.
- Easy pre-soaked pads: Each pad is saturated with the exfoliating solution, so there is nothing to measure or mix. Swipe, wait, rinse.
How to use
In the evening after cleansing, buff one pad over face, neck and décolleté. A slight tingle is normal. Leave on 1 to 3 minutes, rinse with cool water and moisturize. Use sunscreen daily.
