Still Stuck? Here’s Some Smug Skin Haver-er’s

Swipe for some serious skinspiration.

Exfoliation is an essential step in every skincare routine. It helps to break down the ‘glue’ that holds dead skin cells together - forcing old, dull, cloggy skin cells to bugger off. And allowing fresh, new, glowy skin cells to come through. 

Different skin types, skin stages, and skin concerns require different exfoliants. Which is why we developed a whole range of products that vary in active ingredients and strength. 

Exfoliating Swipeys are pre-soaked, single-use pads for your convenience. (Perfect for the time poor.) The natural solution in each pad uses the gentlest of all AHAs, lactic acid, to remove dead cells and hydrate. 

Go-To’s Exfoliating Toners are formulated with a range of sophisticated ingredients.

  • Gentle Exfoliator is made with 5% lactic acid to gently remove buildup and impurities for all-round glow. Perfect for sensitive skin, and anyone prone to irritation. 

  • Clarifying Exfoliator is made with 2% salicylic acid to clear congestion and minimise the appearance of pores. Perfect for particularly oily or shiny teen faces, and adults experiencing breakouts too - hormones, pregnancy and menopause might do that to you.  

  • Glow Exfoliator is made with 5% glycolic acid to help soften fine lines and improve skin tone and texture. Mature faces, and those more experienced with exfoliation might reach for this one. 

How do exfoliators work to improve the skin? 

There are two kinds of exfoliation. 

Physical exfoliation: Using rough, jagged particles to physically scrub the face and clear it of any buildup. 

Chemical exfoliation: Using naturally occurring acids (AHAs, BHAs, PHAs) to clear away old skin cells.   

How often should I exfoliate? 

If you choose the physical method, we recommend exfoliating 2-3 times a week. No more than this. Products of this kind can be quite abrasive and cause micro tears in your skin barrier if used too often. 

The chemical method of exfoliation can be introduced into your skincare routine more frequently (despite sounding like the harsher method of the two). But if your skin is new to active ingredients we recommend starting slow, exfoliating 1-2 times a week, and gradually building up tolerance for more frequent use. 

What do toners and exfoliators do for the skin?

In removing build up and dead skin cells, exfoliators effectively renew the skin. 

With consistent use you can expect dullness to disappear. Congestion to be cleared. A smoother skin texture and more even skin tone. And a reduction in the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. 

When to use toners and exfoliators? 

Exfoliants should be used directly after cleansing. Sweep your exfoliator of choice over dry skin, being careful to avoid the delicate under eye area. Before following on with serums, oils, moisturisers. 

If your exfoliant contains AHAs or BHAs don’t forget to apply SPF the next morning. These ingredients tend to increase your skin’s sensitivity to the sun, so applying sunscreen daily is even more important.

What’s the difference between toner and exfoliator? 

In the world of Go-To these are the same thing. Why? ‘Cos we’re suckers for multitasking, so we actually combined the two: Exfoliating Toners. A leave-on liquid formula that primes the skin for treatment products to follow, and removes dead cells. 

More traditionally, toners (without any exfoliating properties) are used as a balancing solution, applied post-cleanse, to restore the pH of the skin. But cleansers have come so far. Ours wouldn’t dare disrupt your pH.
