BABOR Refining Enzyme & Vitamin C Cleanser

The BABOR Refining Enzyme & Vitamin C Cleanser is a 2-in-1 exfoliating cleansing powder (40 g) that cleanses and visibly refines the complexion. The fine powder is enzyme-activated and removes dirt, sebum and dead skin cells, while vitamin C boosts radiance, kaolin clay absorbs excess oil and moringa seed protein protects against environmental stress. Skin looks smoother, clearer and more even-toned after each use.

Yes. BABOR formulates this cleanser for dull and blemish-prone skin with clogged pores, excess oil, dullness or uneven tone, and the kaolin clay absorbs oil without over-drying. It is described as suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin. If your skin is very dry or reactive, use it less often as an exfoliant rather than every day, and stop if you notice irritation.

Dispense a little powder into your palm, lather it with warm water, then apply to dry skin on the face, neck and décolleté, avoiding the eyes and mucous membranes. Massage in circular motions and rinse thoroughly. BABOR suggests once daily as a cleanser, 1 to 2 times weekly as a gentle exfoliant for sensitive or dry skin, and 1 to 2 times weekly on damp skin as a body scrub.

BABOR does not state a number of uses, and it depends on how much powder you dispense and whether you use it daily or a couple of times a week. A small amount lathers up, so a 40 g jar generally lasts a good while for face-only use, less if you also use it as a body scrub. Smoother, brighter skin is described after each use, with the full effect building over consistent use.

Because the cleanser removes dead skin cells and buildup, BABOR notes it prepares skin to better absorb the products that follow. Pair it with a hydrating or brightening serum, a moisturizer suited to your skin type and a daily SPF in the morning. For blemish-prone skin, a lightweight oil-balancing moisturizer works well; for dull skin, follow with another vitamin C product or a hydrating cream.

Go gently. This cleanser already exfoliates with enzymes, so if you also use retinol or an acid exfoliant, do not stack them in the same session, and start by using the powder as a cleanser only a few times a week. Avoid the eye area and mucous membranes, do not use on broken or irritated skin, patch test first, and wear sunscreen in the morning since freshly exfoliated skin is more sun-sensitive.

Yes. BABOR lists it as suitable for the face and body. As a body scrub, use it on damp skin 1 to 2 times per week to smooth and clarify rough or congested areas. On the face it is a once daily powder cleanser, or a gentle weekly exfoliant for sensitive or dry skin. It is a dry powder, so keep the lid closed and your hands dry when dispensing.
