Key Ingredients

Tapioca Starch

Derived from the Cassava plant, this is a 100% natural, ultra-fine base is a non-talc alternative that helps absorb excess oils.

Enzymes: Protease and Lipase

Enzymes help break down keratin proteins and lipids from the surface of the skin to remove dead skin cells, visibily improving dull, flaky or clogged skin.

Colloidal Oatmeal

Oats are known for their soothing properties, which relieves sensitive skin whilst also providing adequate moisturising.

Zinc PCA

A mineral that helps normalise sebum production and limits bacterial colonisation on blemish-prone skin.

Skin Benefits

Gentle

Enzymatic exfoliation is generally milder than other exfoliation methods, making it less likely to cause redness, irritation, or over-exfoliation.

Improved Texture

By removing the outer layer of dead skin cells, you reveal the healthier, fresher skin underneath.

Even Skin Tone

Enzymes and Turmeric help remove the buildup of dead skin cells which helps uneven skin tone & sun spots.

Unclogging Pores

Enzymes and Zinc help unclog and refine pores by removing debris and excess oil. This can be especially beneficial for those prone to acne or blackheads.

Product FAQ

The shedding of the dead cells is vital to our skin health. Factors like ageing and the environment can cause this process to slow down. When this happens, it causes a build-up of dead skin cells; this appears in the form of dullness, textured skin and uneven skin tone. So it's important to exfoliate the skin and ensure we are aiding this process. It will also help your other products absorb better into the skin.

If your skin is prone to sensitivity, enzymes are a great option! Enzymes work without disrupting your skin’s microbiome, which means they’re unlikely to irritate or sensitise the skin compared to traditional exfoliants, like acids (AHAs, BHAs etc). Enzymes act like little pac men on the skin; they break down the bonds between dead cells, allowing them to be easily slewed off, leaving the skin feeling smoother. This product targets texture, congestion, flaking, dead skin cell build-up, dryness and early signs of ageing. It is also a wash-off product, so you have more control over the application process and makes it a better alternative to those with reactive skin. If you are still worried, you can dilute a bit of the powder with your favourite cleanser, mix it together and experience an even milder exfoliation.

The Powder has a unique base of tapioca starch and colloidal oatmeal which are included ultra-fine ingredients to ensure a non-abrasive feel on the skin to minimise the risk of irritation. In addition, enzymes are known to be one of the most gentle forms of exfoliation. If you have a history of sensitivity to exfoliants, we recommend patch testing and starting slowly. Start by mixing it in with your favourite cleanser to dilute the enzymatic action.

You can use The Powder if you use a retinoid or similar treatment, however, we recommend that they are used on alternative nights and not on the same day. Though exfoliation is very beneficial to the skin; it promotes cell turnover, allowing dead skin to shed and new healthy skin to come toward the surface, over-exfoliating is easily done and negatively impacts the skin. Over-exfoliation can strip the barrier, leaving it sensitive and vulnerable to inflammation and redness.

Yes, The Powder is pregnancy and breastfeeding-friendly! It's a great exfoliating option for those during this stage, especially when it can be tricky to find exfoliants or similar products that are suitable. We’ve carefully selected ingredients that are gentle yet effective.
