ESTER C RICE EXFOLIATOR 2% SALICYLIC ACID (cabin)

The GIGI Ester C Daily Rice Exfoliator 2% Salicylic Acid is a professional skincare treatment in a powder format: mix with water, apply as a paste, massage gently — designed for controlled exfoliation. It uses rice powder/enzymes and oat kernel meal for mild mechanical exfoliation, combined with 2% salicylic acid (BHA) for chemical exfoliation, and soothing/balancing extracts (aloe vera, oat) for comfort.

This product supports smoother texture, clearer pores and more uniform tone — especially beneficial for oily/combination skin, pigmentation-prone skin, or clients seeking a visible “reset”/exfoliate step. Professional salons can integrate it into a corrective facial or offer as a premium home-care take-home.

Key Benefits

Dual-action exfoliation: mechanical (rice powder/enzymes) + chemical (2% salicylic acid) for effective, visible renewal.

Refines enlarged pores, helps cleanse congested skin.

Brightens skin tone and helps even out texture; supports melanin regulation via rice-based complexes.

Suitable for professional use in treatment protocols; gentle enough for sensitive but results-oriented.

Key Ingredients

Salicylic Acid (2%) – BHA that penetrates pores, helps detach dead cell build-up, clarifies and supports smoother skin.

Rice Powder / Rice Enzyme Complex – gentle mechanical exfoliation + brightening support.

Oat Kernel Meal – calming, soothing, supports skin barrier during exfoliation.

Aloe Vera Juice / Extract – calming and soothing for post-exfoliation comfort.

Vitamin C Derivative (Ester-C) – as part of the Ester C line, supports tone correction and antioxidation.

Professional Salon Use:

After cleansing, dispense a small portion of powder into a small bowl.

Add a few drops of water and mix to form a creamy paste.

Apply to the face (and neck/decolletage if needed), avoiding eye area.

With gentle circular motions, massage for about 1–2 minutes (or as per your protocol).

Remove thoroughly with warm water or a damp sponge/compress.

Follow with calming mask or treatment cream, and advise on daily SPF if used as homecare.

Homecare / Take-Home Use:

Recommend clients use 1–3 times per week (depending on skin type: oily/combination = 2-3; normal/dry = once) after cleansing. Mix powder + water in palm, apply, massage for 1-2 minutes, rinse off. Follow with soothing moisturizer and always daytime SPF.

Professional Notes

This is a professional-grade exfoliant containing chemical (BHA) + mechanical action → perform patch test for sensitive skin.

Use caution for clients with very thin/fragile skin, rosacea, active eczema, or post-laser without clearance.

Ensure client follows post-care: use gentle products, avoid sun exposure and apply SPF daily (especially after exfoliation).

Avoid combining with other strong actives (e.g., high dose retinoids, peels) on the same day.

Not specifically contraindicated for pregnant/breastfeeding clients according to sources, but always check local regulations and client’s condition.

Storage: keep in dry place; since powder formulation, avoid moisture contamination.
