Skincare Sunday with Radical Skincare Age-Defying Exfoliating Pads

I am a skincare lover.  I believe that if you don’t treat your skin well then no amount of makeup will give you the results you want!  Exfoliation is so important in caring for your skin.  The Radical Skincare Age-Defying Exfoliating Pads are one of my newest favorites.  It is a gentle daily exfoliating pad that will help you look younger and improve clarity!

“These AHA and BHA acid pads exfoliate, support natural cell turnover, and accelerate the performance of Radical Skincare products. Its antiaging ingredients are proven to tighten and firm skin, reduce the appearance of pore size and lines, and preserve skin’s hydration and nourishment. Excess sebum is removed while leaving the good oils to nourish and hydrate the skin. Enriched with chamomile for soothing and calming, it is perfect for sensitive skin.” – Radical Skincare

I have been using these pads for a couple weeks now and I have really fallen for them.  I mentioned that I am an advocate for taking care of your skin but I am also lazy.  I want something that is simple, easy, and effective.  These pads are all of that and more.  What is more easy than taking a presoaked pad and swiping it over your skin?

These pads are textured which also aids in exfoliation.  They aren’t textured to the point they would be irritating, but they definitely get the job done.

The ingredients in these pads that I love the most are Witch Hazel, which acts as an astringent without drying out the skin, and Alpha Hydroxy Acid, which helps in cell turnover and aids in the absorption and efficacy of other products.  It also contains Aloe Leaf Juice, Glycolic Acid, Salicylic Acid, Citrus Peel Oil, Grape Seed Extract, Coffee Seed Extract, and a plethora of other amazing ingredients.  You can take a look at the ingredients on the picture below, they give the long name and the simple name for most ingredients.  I love that I actually know what the majority of these ingredients are.  We have come to be used to not being able to reading the chemical ingredients in skincare so it is refreshing to see and recognize the ingredients in Radical Skincare products.  Also, no parabens!  YES!

After using these for a couple weeks I noticed that my skin felt more firm, plump, healthy, and overall younger.  My dinner-plate-sized pores were definitely smaller, and I had a glow about me that I haven’t had since pregnancy.  I definitely have visible lines now that I am a little older  and I have noticed the smaller ones seemingly disappear.  I will sing the praises of the Radical Skincare Age-Defying Exfoliating Pads ($75) so that the world can hear it.
