Pharmagel Enzyme Ex-Cell - Gentle Papaya Face Exfoliator Scrub for All Skin Types - 6 Ounces

I've been using this scrub for years. I have very fair sensitive reactive skin, and almost every exfoliating product I've ever tried is way too harsh and burns my skin. I use Enzyme Ex-Cell 2-3 times/week in the shower, just gently smooth it around my face and neck, then let it sit on for a few extra minutes while I wash my body, then I rinse it all off. My skin immediately feels smoother. After my shower, I mist my face and neck, then apply a serum and a sunscreen/moisturizer. This keeps my 74 year old skin looking so fresh!I saw the review about the product coming out runny. That happens to me sometimes too, so I just massage the tube so the liquid mixes with the more solid part. Sometimes I cut the tube open with a kitchen scissors and put the stuff in a jar and mix it together until it's the right texture. Actually, I always cut the tube open when it's almost empty, and I scrape out all that's left and put it in a plastic jar for my shower. There's always a LOT LEFT in that tube! MANY more days of use. Totally worth the effort.

The best exfoliator I have found, after many tries. Prior ones were either too harsh, or left micro-beads on the face. This one is thorough yet gentle, and leaves my skin glowing. Thank you for a great product.

I’ve used this 3x a week and it’s literally scrubs the dead skin and dullness away ! Absolutely like gold for your skin , the grit is just right .. no need for hard pressure scrubs when washing your face. The grit is very small and bitty .. like some other exfoliating scrubs have huge grits that don’t do a good job.. but this one has the right amount and will clean the face for a beautiful glow and softness. It’s somewhat a clay based with small particle of grit. In love !

I am a licensed esthetician, and this is by far the best scrub out there. It's not creamy with a few chunks of rough whatever floating around, this is a thick, cornmeal textured scrub that will definitely brighten your skin and remove all of those surface bumps and oily patches without over drying your skin. This stuff is truly amazing, and if you use this before you shave, you will get a most excellent close shave.

I've used this product for a number of years. Although the price has risen considerably in a short period of time it is still a decent product. That said, my biggest complaint is product inconsistency from when the tube is new (when the product has a good moisture-to-granular ratio) to when the tube is half full and the product starts to become drier, less granular and somewhat cement-ish. This is the case even when the tube is regularly shaken and kneaded in a vain attempt to maintain textural uniformity. I find the contents of a capsule of liposomal vitamin c mixed with a bit of liquid facial cleanser is a good alternative that allows one to manage preferred consistency.

This has a very gentle touch on tender skin.

this scrub is amazing ! your skin will be baby soft without redness or irritation

I love this product! I just bought my third tube. It's gentle on my sensitive skin, but filled with lots of tiny abrasives to give a really good scrub. It leaves my skin looking so fresh.
