What is "gommage"?

"Gommage" is a fancy word meaning 'to erase' in French. Chemical exfoliants and enzymes digest dead skin cells while physical exfoliation through gently massaging rolls away loose surface debris. Basically, it's a kinder, gentler exfoliant compared to abrasive scrubs made of nutshells and microbeads.

• When applied on inanimate surfaces: Gommage do not react to form flakes.

• Gommage flakes form to pick up and roll away loose dead skin cells as you massage your face.

How often should I use the Calendula PHA Hyaluronic Peeling Gel?

Use it twice a week to keep the skin free from the buildup of dead skin cells and debris! It's just so gentle and hydrating, your skin will feel softer and smoother after rolling away the dead skin cells!

For how long do I have to massage my face with the Calendula PHA Hyaluronic Peeling Gel?

All you need is 30 seconds of massaging and rolling to keep your skin soft and clear. Since it's super duper gentle on your skin, you may massage longer for a cleaner skin, but we'd say 1-minute is the maximum.

I have a certain skin type. Can I still use the Calendula PHA Hyaluronic Peeling Gel?

Our Calendula PHA Hyaluronic Peeling Gel is formulated with gentle exfoliants such as PHA and papain enzymes, which are much less likely to irritate your skin than other chemical exfoliants. Furthermore, knowing that physical exfoliation methods such as scrubs can irritate your skin and cause skin damage, we formulated our peeling gel with gommage technology to softly and gently roll away dead skin cells and debris from the skin surface. Combined with hyaluronic acids and Calendula flower extracts, your skin will be left feeling soft, hydrated and smooth!

How is the Calendula PHA Hyaluronic Peeling Gel different from other body exfoliators or scrubs?

Exfoliators on the market are typically made up of tiny, sharp granules that faciliate the physical removal of dead skin cells on the surface, which often irritate the skin due to harsh scrubbing. On the other hand, our Calendula PHA Hyaluronic Peeling Gel uses a gommage technology that picks up dead skin cells with soft and delicate particles that do not irritate the skin. It is also infused with PHA, a gentle chemical exfoliant that penetrates beneath the skin surface to dissolve sebum and accumulated dead skin cells. These two exfoliating techniques work together to effectively remove dead skin cells not only the face, but also the body, without irritating or drying out your skin.

How should I use the Calendula PHA Hyaluronic Peeling Gel on my body/face?

Our Calendula PHA Hyaluronic Peeling Gel works best on dry or damp skin. For face, pat dry your face with a towel after cleansing, and follow with an exfoliation step with the peeling gel. For body, exfoliate your body first before rinsing it away in the shower.
