God this stuffs great!
Ladies you have to try this. I don't think my skin has ever felt as smooth or looked so glowing. This is one for re-order.
Basically you apply what looks a little like porridge to your face allow it to dry then rub off with a towel - which looks a bit like when you've had sunburn and your skin peels  .I think this would be suitable for pretty much all skin types, I tried it a couple of days ago (I have combi/oily skin) and I made my mother use it last night (dry-dehydrated skin). |

I think it's a great product, too. I love it before a home facial - but I have used it alot for my hands & feet, too! I do the home style mini manicure/pedicure & after I have finished the exfoliant step, I use the Janson Beckett Oil Rich Skin Recovery Mask. What a treat. It's a little dangerous on your feet  - I put plastic bags on my feet & then some secure shoes (otherwise it's VERY SLIPPERY). and leave them on for however long I want. When you wrap a warm wet cloth on to remove the mask aahhhh......  .
Judy Marshall once suggested that I try the Esther's Secret Masque on my hands after the exfoliant & boy, that's a keeper too. Instant youth.
Oh, the many uses of the Renewed Radiance Exfoliant. And Esther's Secret Masque.  |

I have never started a review on the Radiance Exfoliant as coming from me it might sound like a sales pitch.
I have NEVER used an exfoliant I have loved like this one. I put it on let it dry for just a few minutes and use my hands in a cirular motion to rub it off my mature skin. It just balls up and falls into the sink. Radiance Exfoliant is my Epidermx. I can't use Epidermx as it is too harsh for my skin type. You can also take the exfoliant off with a damp cloth. I think Nanapost does it that way.
Radiance Exfoliant is my secret gem. So glad to hear others loving it!!

I can understand your reluctance there Winnie.
The only other papaya mask I've used is by Elemis, that doesn't set and stays like a serum which I thought was fine but the JB mask knocks the socks off it |

| Winnie, would you know if the Radiance is similar to Reviva's Light Skin Peel. It sounds pretty much the same as described above and afterwood my skin feels really soft. |

It depends on your skin type Aga. I use it twice weekly. It feels so awesome I would love to use it daily but we know that is not good. The average I would recommend it would be 1 or 2 times weekly.
Cindi,
I have never used a Reviva Labs product so I could not answer that question for you. The Radiance Exfoliant is from the Janson-Beckett salon line. |

| I hate using exfoliators. My skin is very sensitive and every time I use one (even the most gentle) my skin will look good right after and then within days it looks horrible and sometimes have a bad breakout. I was purchasing several items from JB and was extremely reluctant to buy the Renewed Radiance. I figured what is $11 more dollars so I threw it in with the order. I love the way this product makes my skin look and feel and so far no breakouts. |

Ok, I'm caving and trying this on the weekend. I do have a jar of it because I was curious to try it given it's one of their top sellers. The smell turned me off it though and I haven't tried yet. This weekend it is!
Glad to hear you've had such good results with it! |

After reading all of this I will need to take a closer look at the Radiance Exfoliant. 
I'm always on the lookout for new products to try.
Do they have samples of this? |

| Glad it's not just me who liked it and glad to know I'm not the only one who can get breakouts after using certain mask exfoliants. |

I tried this today and I'm joing the camp of people who like it!
It's basically the consistency of a porridge as made by a person who cannot cook - such as myself I.e., it's a rubbery porridge consistency. It spreads on the face easily and does not sting or feel tight in any way. You wait for a few minutes to let it dry and then you rub this off with a towel. I've read that some use a wet towel but I used a dry one and didn't find that to be too rough at all. This left my skin nice and smooth - as a good exfoliator should.
The only thing I still don't like about it is the smell. It's the same alcoholy smell that I associate with going to the dentist  |

Now, I really like the smell. To me it smells like yeast. It's like Dr. H. Cream cleanser. Either you love it or hate it. I also like the smell of Dr. H. and love that cleanser.
NICE SUGGESTION: Put a light layer on you face and NECK. Let it dry just a few minutes. With light cirular motions take if off with your hands. I love the way I feel it balling us and falling into the sink. When done I use a toner with a cotton ball. NICE |

Thanks Winnie. I must admit I did try taking it off with just hands and no towel - mainly because it looked more fun It worked well but the towel would be even more exfoliating I guess. |
