    The ultimate exfoliator

    When I worked in medical aesthetics, acids were always my go-to exfoliator. As a luxury spa director and esthetician, I was introduced to Shankara's Microcrystal Exfoliator, and it quickly became one of my favorite products. I've used it personally for nearly seven years and have also introduced it into several spas I've managed. My skin always looks brighter and smoother afterward, my pores appear more refined, and my serums and moisturizers absorb much better. It's one of the few products that has remained a staple in my skincare routine year after year.

    Perfect Manual Exfoliation

    Love the Microcrystal Exfoliator! The perfect amount of abrasion to exfoliate dry skin in the high plains desert, but gentle enough for my mildly sensitive skin. This has become a weekly part of my ritual.
