Glowtini Brightening Exfoliant

A brightening exfoliant that gently resurfaces the face and body for smoother, more radiant-looking skin. Powered by papaya enzymes, finger lime extract and jojoba beads, it combines enzymatic and physical exfoliation to effectively lift away dead skin cells and refine texture. The dual-action formula helps target dullness, uneven skin tone and visible pigmentation while supporting a brighter, more even complexion. Gentle enough for both face and body, it leaves skin feeling soft, polished and refreshed after every use. Skin appears smoother, more luminous and visibly revitalised with continued use.

How It Works 

This dual-action exfoliant combines enzymatic and physical exfoliation for comprehensive resurfacing. Papaya enzymes (papain) break down the keratin protein in dead skin cells, loosening their bonds without harsh acids. Finger lime extract, rich in natural AHAs and vitamin C, provides additional chemical exfoliation and brightening. The spherical jojoba beads offer gentle physical exfoliation without the micro-tears associated with harsh scrubs. This combination ensures effective resurfacing suitable for face and body without irritation. 

Application Method 

  1. Apply to damp, clean skin 
  2. Massage in circular motions for 1-2 minutes 
  3. Focus on areas of congestion or dullness 
  4. Leave on for additional 2-3 minutes for enzyme action 
  5. Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water 

Frequency 

  • 2-3 times weekly for normal skin 
  • Once weekly for sensitive skin 
  • Can be used on body for KP, rough patches 

Pro Tips 

  • Use after cleansing, before serums 
  • Perfect prep before vitamin C serums for enhanced brightness 
  • Excellent for décolletage and hands

Perfect Pairs 

The Balense® Philosophy 

This exfoliant perfectly balances immediate results with skin respect. The dual-action formula provides comprehensive exfoliation while maintaining skin comfort. 

Enzyme Exfoliation Benefits 

Unlike acids that work on pH, enzymes specifically target dead cells, making them ideal for sensitive skin or those new to exfoliation. 

Physical vs Chemical vs Enzymatic 

We combine all three for complete exfoliation: jojoba beads lift, finger lime acids dissolve, and papaya enzymes digest dead cells.

Q: Can I use this if I use retinol? A: Yes, but alternate nights. Don’t use both on the same evening. 

Q: Is this suitable for sensitive skin? A: Yes, the enzyme action is gentler than acid exfoliants. Start once weekly. 

Q: Can I use this on my body? A: Absolutely! It’s excellent for rough patches, KP, and body brightening.
