A clarifying facial provides a deep cleanse that removes impurities like dirt, oil, and acne from the skin. The ingredients used in a clarifying facial will vary depending on the client’s specific skin condition and concerns, but may include pumpkin enzyme, rosemary, bentonite clay, lactic acid, and salicylic acid.

How Often Do I Need a Clarifying Facial?

CONSISTENTLY CLARIFIED

The skin regenerates every 28 days, so it’s best to obtain a facial once every four to six weeks. The exact frequency will depend on the client’s skin type and their cosmetic concerns. Individuals with acne-prone or sensitive skin may need facials more frequently.

What's in a Clarifying Facial?

COMMON INGREDIENTS

PUMPKIN ENZYMES

Pumpkin enzymes contain alpha hydroxyl acids which speed up cell regeneration. Pumpkin also contains vitamins A and C, zinc, and essential fatty acids, helping to destroy free radicals and control sebum production.

LACTIC ACID

Lactic acid lightens dark spots, removes dead skin cells, and reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Lactic acid also increases cell turnover, stimulates collagen production, and improves the skin’s natural moisture factor.

BONTONITE CLAY

Bentonite clay is an effective ingredient for treating rashes and acne. Bentonite clay helps remove impurities from the skin by absorbing oils, dirt, and bacteria.

SALICYLIC ACID

Salicylic acid is a well-known acne-fighting ingredient that has anti-inflammatory, exfoliant, and antibacterial properties. When used in a clarifying facial, salicylic acid clears up acne and helps prevent future breakouts.
