Dr. Brandt Skincare Radiance Resurfacing Foam
Inspired by dermaplaning, an in-office treatment where dead skin and peach fuzz are sloughed off the surface of the skin, this cream-to-foam mask smooths with powerful (yet gentle) AHAs. After about 60 seconds, you take a no-blade tool and glide it over the skin in an upwards motion. This removes the product and any dead skin, dirt, and debris that’s been removed. The last step? Massage in any leftover product and you’re set.
