It does NOT contain the toxic acrylamide (please read)
I think it is important to not that contrary to some previous reviews this product does not contain the chemical acrylamide, the possible cancer causing chemical found in some foods is not molecular the same as the ingredient acrylamide/sodium acryloyldimethyltaurate, which is an emulsion agent. I also think it’s important to note that this chemical, when found in foods, mostly fried potatoes, happens during the cooking process. It occurs when the potato is heated to a high temperature quickly, the crispier the fry, the more acrylamide. Anyone going to stop eating fries now? There is absolutely no research that shows the emulsifier has the same toxic effects as the chemical alone. I will say in rats at moderate levels could be responsible for reproductive issues but the truth is eating what is considered a “moderate” amount of any single chemical is potentially toxic.Interestingly this product was not created by a cosmetic company, it was a group of medical scientists. The intention was to create a gel that would make taking skin biopsies (for cancer), less invasive. The subjects noted how young their skin looked. This was due to it taking off the layer of dead skin that makes our faces look dull, especially for people like me, who do not shed that skin properly. It does not, (as 1 reviewer theorized) “make your skin swell”. It’s not a trick, we all would look better without dead skin on our face. And of course stopping the use of the product will very quickly make you dull again because we are constantly growing and shedding dead skin.Because of my skin condition, that I have passed to my daughter, I have been praying for a product like this. Something different. Where I can look at the ingridents and not see the same thing I saw on the previous product that failed me. This company is right in saying we need to stop looking at skin care as a cosmetic issue and find solutions in the medical field and make them available to the mas public. Not just through a dermatologist many (myself) can’t afford.

Incredible product!
This product is amazing. Cleans and leaves skin feeling incredibly soft. It's also not harsh like other products, namely ones with salicylic acid and other acids. It seems to just dissolve, break-apart, and rinse away the layers of dead skin while leaving the healthy skin untouched. It's really incredible. I would buy them in bulk if I could haha. I'd love to see this company make some other products as well. The only downside I can find is that the exfoliating beads can be a pain to wash away sometimes.

Effective for Keratosis Pilaris and exfoliation dryness
If you have small, itchy bumps on your skin this is a great product to try. It is also terrific to use when I have dryness or flaking from AHA treatments or vitamin A (tretinoin, retinol). This can be used as a wash or a weekly mask left on the skin for 10 minutes. The microbeads give a safe manual exfoliation although it’s best to use this product when it can be showered off to help rinse the skin. I will definitely repurchase this product.

Nothing special. Save your money.
Disappointing after all the positive reviews. I'm 25 years old, suffering from hormonal & cystic acne for the past 2 years. Like many of you, I have tried everything to no avail. There is nothing special about this product. I've been using it for about a month with no improvements. Definitely does not work when used as a stand-alone product. If you're looking for an effective exfoliator, I would look elsewhere... my pores are clogged as ever and the hyperpigmentation from past acne has not improved at all. Do not waste your money on this product.

Leave skin soft I
The product make your skin feel smooth and soft. I loved that!I’m not sure that it will take off Sk’s. That’s why I left off a star. I did love the product and will continue to use.

Expired?
The product is expired. They just put a sticker over it so you wouldn’t notice. I noticed after I used it. I liked the texture but not sure why I received something expired and for this price it shouldn’t be a expired!

Great for Retin A users
Now that I've tried this, won't be able to live without it. It exfoliates better than anything goes else I've tried. I get flaky from Retin A and this stuff removes all of that, so no more embarrassing flaking skin everywhere. Love this, it's pricey but in the end I'll make the splurge.

Softens and smoothes skin incredibly
This product is amazing. It softens and smoothes skin immediately. I rub it on rough skin every day in the shower. I let it sit for about thirty seconds, then I rinse it off. I used it on itchy bumps. They completely went away. I am still in awe! I have already re-purchased.
