No matter where you live, everyday pollutants and free radicals cause pore-clogging debris to nestle below the skin’s surface. Dr. Brandt’s pore refining cream contains salicylic acid to stimulate cellular turnover and clean pores, while tea tree and rosemary penetrate pores to eliminate blockage. This pore decongestant can be used by people with all skin types, and is most effective on oily/combination skin tones.. Lavender extract and palma rosa calm irritated or sensitive skin with a clarifying action that is gentle yet effective. Product tip: Can also be used on arms and legs as a great alternative treatment for keratosis pilaris.
