Exfoliating Polish
ZO Skin Health Exfoliating Polish is a cult-favorite face exfoliator that uses ultra-fine magnesium crystals and vitamin C to buff away dull, dead skin and lift excess oil, leaving skin smoother and more radiant after the first use.
With continued use, ZO says skin tone looks more even, pores and dark spots look less visible, and the serums and treatments that follow absorb better. The polish also helps replenish hydration and healthy lipids, so skin feels soft rather than stripped.
It's step two of ZO's Getting Skin Ready® routine, used after cleansing and before toning, and the brand recommends it for all skin types.
Why We Chose It
At Crafted Beauty, we look for exfoliators that give an instant payoff without being harsh. Exfoliating Polish stood out because its ultra-fine crystals deliver a noticeable smoothness in one use, with stable vitamin C working on the look of dark spots over time. It's a thoughtful choice for anyone with dull, rough or congested-looking skin.
