Reviews

Nothing compares

"I live in the US and found this product a few years ago. It is face saving. I’ve never found anything that comes close to the quality or value. My daughter is 14 and has pretty clear skin for a teen. We ran out of our carbon theory and were disappointed that we couldn’t find it in the US again. A few months went by and her skin was breaking out more and more. I finally found out where to order this directly and within a week her skin is back to clear. It’s fantastic for her 14 year old face and works just as magically on my 45 year old face."

Excellent

"I bought this for my son as his skin was starting to break out and I wanted to avoid it becoming too much of a problem. He uses several of your products and nothing else. He still gets the odd break out but generally we feel that his teen skin is under control. It’s also affordable and gender neutral which suits us."

Q&A

Does it really take a night for everything to disappear because I have different tone I’m my face, whiteheads on my chin that won’t go away and spots always there it’s annoying. What will be the best product to use to get rid of them completely
Hey Fatimata, we can't guarantee that spots will disappear overnight, as with anything it will take time for results to show through, but our Overnight Detox Serum is a great way to boost skin, help calm breakouts, reduce inflammation and keep skin hydrated!
Is the overnight detox serum safe to use while breastfeeding?
Hey Sarah, yes! All of our products are tested to the highest global standard, are perfectly safe to use both during and after pregnancy, as well as when breast feeding :)
Used the soap bar on my son’s teenage acne since the start of lockdown, now added the overnight serum and it’s made his skin worse - lots of whiteheads. Surely his skin ‘purged’ when we started the process with the soap?
Hey Sarah, we do sometimes see skin get slightly worse again when new products are added, as the skin gets used to another new product and re adjusts. Thus usually calms down given some time. -JJ
Hi, I have an extensive skin care routine - every other night I use different products. Can this be used in conjunction with niacinamide and zinc and retinol? And can if be use with AHA and BHA acid, I see it had Lagtiv acid already in so I'm assuming from what I've read on skincare if would be ok to use on my night where I use my acids to really clean my break out prone and oukh skin? Thank you
Hey Jade, you should be absolutely fine using our products in conjunction with what you already use! -JJ
Do you leave it on overnight?
Hey Lea, yes, once massaged into the face it doesn't need to be washed off, but only a small amount is needed. - JJ
