I really have to admit that even though the effectiveness of this products is definitely overstated, I do like it. I've read their promotional material and if there was ever a case of abuse of the term “promotes cell division” this is it.
Now understand me clearly that it does “not” in any way cause your skin to produce new cells. Period! However; what it does do, it does quite well and this is why it's a top seller. It strips away dead skin cells as it cleanses.
It's two primary active ingredients for the exfoliation process are glycolic acid 1% and salicylic acid 1%. One fairly mild acid and another that is a bit more powerful and that can cause irritation. The glycolic acid.
Glycolic acid has the innate ability to “penetrate” and this is why it's commonly used in the dying of fabrics. Another one of it's characteristics, is that it also tends to impart a glossy finish on organic products that comes into contact with it. (Your skin)
So understand that while in no way will this face wash promote cell division, between these two mild and semi mild acids, you can count on it to dissolve away dead skin cells and leave you with a nice glossy finish.
So would I recommend it? Sure why not! If the glycolic acid doesn't cause you any problems and it most likely won't. You're basically getting a high quality face wash and a proven exfoliant, both in one container for the the price of one.
