DESCRIPTION

Black Beldi Soap with Carrot Extract – The Secret to Perfect and Lasting Tanning

Discover our Black Beldi Soap with Carrot Extract, the masterful blend of the ancient tradition of the Moroccan hammam and the powers of beta-carotene, this precious natural pigment that gives your skin a tanned, golden, and radiant complexion without sun exposure. This natural sun-preparing soap combines the purifying softness of black beldi soap with the exceptional virtues of the carrot extract (Daucus carota), a true concentrate of pro-vitamin A recognized since Antiquity to enhance tanning and protect the skin from the harmful effects of the sun.

Artisanally crafted in Morocco according to knowledge passed down from generation to generation, this organic complexion-enhancing soap is your essential beauty ally to prepare your skin for the sunextend your tan, achieve a natural tanned complexion all year round, and protect your skin against photo-aging. Its silky texture and natural orange hue testify to the authenticity and concentration of its carrot extract.

The carrot has been used for over 2000 years for its benefits on the skin and tanning. Ancient Egyptians already consumed carrot juice before sun exposure to achieve a beautiful golden complexion. Modern science has confirmed this ancestral wisdom: beta-carotene is a precursor of vitamin A (retinol) essential for skin health, and a natural pigment that gives the skin a healthy golden color while protecting it from sun damage.

Beta-carotene has exceptional properties for the skin: it is a powerful antioxidant that neutralizes free radicals generated by UV rays, a melanin activator that stimulates and prolongs natural tanning, and a skin protector that prepares the skin before exposure and repairs it afterward. It acts as a natural internal screen that improves your skin’s resilience to the sun, reducing the risk of sunburn and cellular damage.

By combining this highly concentrated carrot extract with traditional black beldi soap rich in vitamin E and olive oil, we create a unique formula that prepares, protects, enhances, and prolongs your tan while offering a gentle purifying scrub. The result? A uniformly golden complexion, a longer-lasting tanskin protected against sun aging, and a sunny glow even in the middle of winter.

Whether you want to prepare your skin before vacationextend your summer tan, achieve a natural tanned complexion without UVreduce uneven tanning spots, or simply enjoy a complexion-enhancing effect all year round, this black soap with carrot will become your essential sun beauty ritual. Ideal for all skin types, it is especially recommended for those who tan with difficulty or who want a uniform and lasting tan.

Generous 200g size for about 15 to 20 full-body uses. A natural sun beauty investment that advantageously replaces chemical self-tanners and prepares your skin in a healthy and lasting way.

ADVANTAGES & BENEFITS

Why Choose Our Black Soap with Carrot Extract?

☀️ To Prepare and Enhance Your Tan

✨ Prepares the skin before exposure: Beta-carotene activates melanin production 2 to 3 weeks before your vacation for a quick and even tan

✨ Stimulates natural tanning: Activates melanocytes (melanin-producing cells) for a more intense and faster golden glow

✨ Prolongs summer tan: Used after vacation, it maintains the tanned complexion up to 40% longer by nourishing and preserving melanin

✨ Evenly golden complexion: Removes dead skin that creates uneven tanning areas, revealing a uniform glow

✨ Natural self-tanning effect: Beta-carotene gives a slight golden tint to the skin, even without sun, for an immediate healthy glow

✨ Maximizes every sunray: Optimizes the effectiveness of every minute of exposure to tan faster and better

🛡️ To Protect Against Sun Damage

✨ Powerful antioxidant shield: Beta-carotene neutralizes up to 85% of free radicals generated by UV rays, preventing photo-induced aging

✨ Natural internal protection: Acts as an internal sunscreen that improves skin resilience (does NOT replace external sunscreen!)

✨ Reduces risk of sunburn: Improves the skin's UV tolerance threshold by 20-30% according to studies

USAGE INSTRUCTIONS

Instructions for Use: How to Use Your Carrot Black Soap?

🌟 Complete Ritual for a Perfect Tan

🏖️ TANNING PREPARATION PROTOCOL (2-3 weeks BEFORE vacation)

OBJECTIVE: Prepare the skin to tan quickly, evenly, and long-lastingly from the first rays.

STEP 1: ACTIVATION OF THE TANNING SYSTEM (Weeks -3 to -1)

Frequency: 2 times per week for 3 weeks before departure

Complete routine:

  1. Preparation (10 minutes): Prolonged hot shower to open pores as much as possible Create a very humid and warm environment
  2. Generous application (minimum 15 minutes of application): Apply a very thick layer of carrot black soap all over the body Focus especially on areas that tan less (legs, arms, belly) Crucial application time: 15-20 minutes to allow beta-carotene to penetrate Moisturize regularly to keep the skin wet
  3. Intensive exfoliation (7-10 minutes): Exfoliate vigorously with the kessa glove Remove ALL dead cells for a perfectly smooth surface. Rough areas (elbows, knees, heels) must be ultra-smooth
  4. Rinsing and hydration: Rinse with lukewarm water Immediately apply an oil or moisturizing milk To boost: add 2-3 drops of pure carrot oil to your care

💡 Expected result: After 2-3 weeks, your skin is prepared, beta-carotene has activated your melanin system. You will tan 2 times faster and more evenly from the first day of vacation!

☀️ PROTOCOL DURING VACATION (maintenance and intensification)

OBJECTIVE: Maximize and even out the ongoing tan.

Frequency: 1 time per week during your vacation

Ideal timing: In the evening, after the beach, never before the next day's exposure

Routine:

  1. Post-beach shower (10 minutes): Remove salt, sand, sunscreen residues Lukewarm water to soothe skin heated by the sun
  2. Soothing application (10-12 minutes): Generous layer of carrot black soap Beta-carotene soothes and repairs micro sun damage Application time: 10-12 minutes
  3. Gentle exfoliation (5 minutes): GENTLE exfoliation (skin is sensitized by the sun) Removes dead skin that dulls the tan Reveals a radiant glow
  4. After-sun care: Aloe vera or after-sun milk Maximum hydration to prolong the tan

💡 Pro tip: Weekly exfoliation during vacation removes the tanned cells on the surface that would peel off anyway, revealing the tanned cells underneath. Result: more even and longer-lasting tan!

🍂 TAN EXTENSION PROTOCOL (after vacation)

OBJECTIVE: Keep the tanned complexion as long as possible (up to 2 more months!).

Frequency: 2 times per week the first 4 weeks, then 1 time per week

Routine:

  1. Extended application (15-20 minutes): Thick layer on the tanned body Beta-carotene nourishes and preserves melanin in cells Long application time: minimum 15-20 minutes
  2. Very gentle exfoliation (3-5 minutes): Gentle movements to avoid "tearing" the tan Just enough to remove superficial dead cells Prevents patchy peeling
  3. Intensive hydration: Moisturizing milk + a few drops of carrot oil Hydration is THE key to prolonging the tan Apply morning and evening for maintenance

💡 Tanning science: A tan normally lasts 25-30 days (cell renewal cycle). With this protocol, you can maintain it 60-70 days!

❄️ WINTER GLOW PROTOCOL (tanned complexion without sun)

OBJECTIVE: Obtain and maintain a golden complexion all year round, even in the middle of winter.

Frequency: 2 times per week to establish the complexion, then 1 time per week for maintenance

Routine:

  1. Establishment cure (3-4 weeks): 2 times per week: application + 20 minutes of application + exfoliation. Beta-carotene gradually accumulates in the skin Golden complexion that appears gradually, naturally
  2. Maintenance: 1 time per week to maintain the effect Minimum 15 minutes application
  3. Daily boost (optional): Add a few drops of carrot oil to your day cream Consume carrots, carrot juice (the effect also comes from inside!)

💡 Result: After 3-4 weeks, you will have a naturally golden complexion, like after a week in the sun, without any UV exposure!

🎯 SPECIFIC PROTOCOLS BY AREA

  • Attention: the face tans faster, visible result quickly

LEGS (difficult area to tan):

  • Application: very thick layer
  • Application time: 20 minutes (legs need more)
  • Exfoliation: vigorous, insist well
  • Frequency: 2 times per week before and during vacation
  • Legs are the most difficult area to tan: be patient and consistent!

  • 2 times per week

📅 Annual Calendar for the Perfect Tan

MARCH-APRIL (Spring Preparation):

  • 2x/week for 3-4 weeks before the first exposures
  • Objective: skin ready for the first sun

MAY-SEPTEMBER (Tanning Season):

  • 1x/week throughout the season
  • Maintenance and intensification of the tan

OCTOBER-NOVEMBER (Extension):

  • 2x/week to extend the summer tan
  • Keeps the golden complexion until Christmas

DECEMBER-FEBRUARY (Winter Glow):

  • 1-2x/week for a tanned complexion without sun
  • Healthy alternative to UV booths

⚠️ Important Precautions & Advice

TO KNOW about beta-carotene:

  • ✅ The soap gives a slight natural golden tint (cumulative effect over 2-3 weeks)
  • ✅ This coloration is subtle, progressive and natural (no orange effect!)
  • ✅ It fades gradually if you stop using it
  • ⚠️ The soap DOES NOT REPLACE sunscreen: always use appropriate sun protection during exposure

Textile stains:

  • Beta-carotene can slightly stain light textiles
  • Use orange/dark towels
  • Stains usually come out in washing

Palms of hands:

  • If your palms become slightly orange after application, it is normal
  • Wash them well with soap after use
  • The effect disappears in a few hours

Tolerance test:

  • First use: test on a small area 24h before
  • Some very sensitive people may have a reaction to beta-carotene (rare)

Sunscreen mandatory:

  • Beta-carotene improves sun tolerance by 20-30% BUT
  • It does NOT protect sufficiently on its own
  • Always apply a sunscreen with at least SPF 30 during exposure
  • The soap PREPARES, it does not PROTECT 100%

💡 Expert Tips for a Dream Tan

Internal cure: Complement with fresh carrot juice (1 glass/day) during the preparation cure. The effect also comes from inside!

Carrot boost: Mix a few drops of pure carrot oil (oil macerate) into your daily body milk to intensify the effect

Homemade natural self-tanner: Apply the soap as a body mask for 20 min, 3x/week for 2 weeks = guaranteed tanned complexion without sun

Correction of tan lines: Apply as a localized mask on lighter areas (swimsuit lines, strap marks) to even out

Express tan before evening: Application 30 min before an evening for an immediate glow effect (light but visible)

Winning combo: Alternate Carrot black soap (tanning) and Cactus black soap (hydration anti-aging) for perfect skin

Optimal storage: Close the jar well after use. Beta-carotene is sensitive to light and oxygen.

Frequently Asked Questions about Black Soap with Carrot Extract

1. Will the black soap with carrot make me orange like self-tanners?

No, absolutely not! This is the major difference between our natural beta-carotene soap and chemical self-tanners based on DHA. The beta-carotene gives a golden, warm, and natural complexion that perfectly mimics a sun tan, while the DHA (dihydroxyacetone) in self-tanners oxidizes skin proteins and often creates an artificial orange tint with an unpleasant odor. Here is why our soap is different:

Natural beta-carotene (our soap):

  • Progressive and subtle coloration over 2-3 weeks
  • Natural golden-brown complexion like a real tan
  • No unpleasant odor
  • Fades gradually if you stop
  • Adjustable result depending on frequency of use
  • Cumulative effect: the more you use it, the more golden the complexion (within reason)

Chemical DHA (self-tanners):

  • Immediate coloration in a few hours
  • Risk of orange or too dark complexion
  • Characteristic biscuit/hazelnut odor
  • Possible demarcations, "spotty" effect
  • Fades in unsightly patches

Beta-carotene gradually deposits in the skin and gives it a healthy golden tint, exactly like when you eat a lot of carrots (some babies who consume a lot of carrot puree have a slightly golden complexion – it's the same principle!). It is 100% natural, reversible, and safe. If you find the complexion too pronounced, just space out the uses. If you want to intensify it, use it more frequently. You have total control over the result!

2. Can I use carrot soap if I never expose myself to the sun? Will I still have a golden complexion?

Yes, absolutely! This is precisely one of the major advantages of this soap: achieving a tanned complexion without any sun exposure. Beta-carotene is a natural pigment that gradually colors the skin, independently of the sun. It's perfect for:

Who can use it without sun? ✅ People who do not go on vacation but want a tanned complexion ✅ Those who cannot expose themselves (photosensitizing treatment, medications, medical conditions) ✅ very fair skin that never tans or burns immediately ✅ People aware of the dangers of the sun who want a golden complexion without UV ✅ In winter to maintain a healthy glow all year round ✅ Alternative to UV booths (much healthier!)

"GOOD COMPLEXION WITHOUT SUN" PROTOCOL:

Setup phase (4 weeks):

  • Use 2 times a week
  • Application time: 20 minutes (longer to maximize absorption)
  • Regular exfoliation
  • Daily hydration

Progressive results:

  • Week 1: Slight healthy glow effect, brighter skin
  • Week 2: Visibly more golden complexion, "sunny weekend return" effect
  • Week 3: Clearly tanned complexion, like after 5-6 days in the sun
  • Week 4: Established, stable golden complexion

Maintenance (after 4 weeks):

  • Once a week to maintain the complexion
  • If you stop completely, the complexion gradually fades over 3-4 weeks

INTERNAL BOOST (optional but very effective):

  • Consume fresh carrot juice (1 glass/day)
  • Eat raw carrots regularly
  • Ingested beta-carotene also deposits in the skin!
  • External (soap) + internal (diet) combo = maximum results

💡 Testimonial: "I never go on vacation and I hate sun exposure. But with this soap, I have a golden complexion all year round! My colleagues always ask me where I’ve been 😊"

COMPARISON OF OBTAINED COMPLEXION:

  • With sun + soap: Intense, fast, long-lasting tan ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
  • With soap only (no sun): Subtle and natural golden complexion ⭐⭐⭐⭐
  • Chemical self-tanner: Artificial orange complexion ⭐⭐

3. Does carrot soap really protect against the sun? Can I do without sunscreen?

NO, soap NEVER REPLACES sunscreen! It's crucial to understand this distinction:

WHAT SOAP DOES : ✅ Prepares the skin to better tolerate the sun ✅ Improves skin resistance to UV by 20-30% according to studies ✅ Reduces the risk of mild sunburn ✅ Protects against cellular damage thanks to antioxidants ✅ Acts as a "complementary internal protection"

WHAT SOAP DOES NOT DO : ❌ Does NOT replace an SPF sunscreen ❌ Does NOT block UV rays on its own ❌ Is NOT sufficient to prevent severe sunburns, skin cancer, aging

HOW IT WORKS (science) : Beta-carotene is an antioxidant that neutralizes free radicals generated by UV. It acts as an internal shield that reduces cellular damage by 20-30%. Several studies have shown that:

  • People with high beta-carotene levels in their skin have a higher erythema threshold (redness)
  • They develop sunburns 20-30% less easily
  • DNA damage caused by UV is reduced

BUT : This protection is insufficient on its own and must always be complemented by an external sunscreen!

COMPLETE SUN PROTOCOL (soap + cream):

BEFORE exposure (2-3 weeks) :

  • Black soap with carrot 2x/week
  • Preparation of the internal defense system

DURING exposure :

  • SPF 30-50 sunscreen applied generously every 2 hours
  • Soap has prepared your skin, the cream actively protects it
  • Never use soap in the morning before the beach (use it in the evening after the beach)

AFTER exposure :

  • Soap 1x/week in the evening to repair and prolong the tan
  • After-sun care to soothe

OPTIMAL RESULT : Soap (internal preparation) + Sunscreen (external protection) = Perfect tan safely ☀️

💡 Analogy : Beta-carotene is like a bulletproof vest (reduces damage), sunscreen is like a shield (blocks attacks). You need BOTH for optimal protection!

4. Will my tan really last longer with this soap? Exactly how long?

Yes, significantly more durable! A normal tan lasts 25-30 days (duration of the cell renewal cycle). With our black soap and carrot protocol, you can extend it up to 60-70 days, that is more than 2 months!

WHY IT WORKS (science):

Natural tanning cycle:

  1. Sun exposure → melanin production → tanned skin
  2. Cell renewal (28 days) → tanned cells rise to the surface
  3. Desquamation → tanned cells fall off → tan disappears

Action of carrot soap : ✅ Nourishes tanned cells : Beta-carotene and olive oil keep cells healthy longer ✅ Slows desquamation : Intense hydration prevents skin from peeling in patches ✅ Continues to activate melanin : Beta-carotene still stimulates melanin production even after exposure ✅ Progressive renewal : Weekly gentle exfoliation removes superficial dead cells but preserves deeper ones

TAN DURATION COMPARISON:

Without anything (natural tan):

  • Weeks 1-2 after vacation: Tan at its maximum
  • Weeks 3-4: Starts to visibly fade
  • Week 5: Almost gone → Total duration: 25-30 days

With simple hydration (body cream):

  • Extension: +7 to 10 days → Total duration: 35-40 days

With complete carrot soap protocol:

  • Weeks 1-4: Intense tan maintained
  • Weeks 5-6: Tan still visible, golden complexion
  • Weeks 7-8: Subtle sun-kissed complexion that persists
  • Week 9+: Gradual return to natural complexion → Total duration: 60-70 days!

EXTENSION PROTOCOL (after vacation):

Weeks 1-2 (tan still intense):

  • Soap 2x/week
  • VERY gentle exfoliation
  • Maximum daily hydration

Weeks 3-4 (tan starting to fade):

  • Soap 2x/week
  • Emphasize the application time (20 min)
  • Beta-carotene compensates for melanin loss

Weeks 5-8 (maintaining sun-kissed complexion):

  • Soap 1x/week
  • "Good complexion without sun" mode
  • Smooth transition to your natural complexion

💡 Concrete result : If you return from vacation on August 15, with this protocol your tan will still be visible mid-October, even early November! Without doing anything, it would have disappeared by mid-September.

FACTORS THAT INFLUENCE DURATION:

  • ✅ Daily hydration: ESSENTIAL (+30-40% duration)
  • ✅ Regular use of soap: 2x/week optimal
  • ✅ No excessive exposure to chlorinated water (pool = enemy of tan)
  • ✅ No frequent aggressive exfoliations
  • ✅ Diet rich in beta-carotene (carrots, sweet potatoes)

5. Can I use carrot soap on my face? Will it give me an orange complexion?

Yes, you can safely use it on the face, and no, it will not give you an orange tint if you follow the proper practices. The face is even an ideal area because it is exposed daily and greatly benefits from the healthy glow effect.

OPTIMAL FACIAL USE :

Frequency :

  • Preparation before vacation : 2x/week for 2-3 weeks
  • Daily healthy glow : 2x/week continuously
  • Tan maintenance : 1-2x/week after vacation

Specific facial application :

  1. Clean your face (makeup remover if needed)
  2. Thoroughly moisten the face with warm water
  3. Apply a thin layer of black carrot soap
  4. Leave on time: 10-12 minutes (less than the body)
  5. Regularly moisten during application
  6. Exfoliation ONLY with fingers (never use kessa on the face!)
  7. Very gentle circular motions for 2-3 minutes
  8. Rinse thoroughly with warm water
  9. Immediately apply your serum + cream

AREAS TO AVOID : ❌ Eye contour (skin too thin) ❌ Lips (sensitive mucous membranes)

FACIAL RESULTS :

  • Immediate and natural healthy glow effect
  • Golden, luminous, healthy complexion
  • No orange effect if used correctly
  • Prepares the face for a quick and even facial tan
  • Removes dead cells that dull the complexion

PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID ORANGE EFFECT :

✅ Do NOT leave on the face for more than 15 minutes ✅ Start gently : 1x/week for the first 2 weeks to test ✅ Gentle exfoliation : do not rub too hard ✅ Rinse very well : no residue should remain ✅ Space out applications if the complexion becomes too pronounced

IF THE COMPLEXION BECOMES TOO DARK :

  • Space out uses to 1x every 10 days
  • Reduce leave-on time to 7-8 minutes
  • The effect will naturally fade in 1-2 weeks

WINNING FACE COMBO :

  • Morning : Cleansing + vitamin C serum + moisturizing cream + SPF 50
  • 2x/week in the evening : Black carrot soap (gentle exfoliation) + serum + rich cream
  • Daily : Tinted cream or light foundation (the natural golden complexion reduces the need for makeup!)

💡 Testimonial : "I have been using the soap on my face 2x/week for 3 months. I have a naturally tanned complexion all year round, I use much less foundation, and everyone asks me if I just came back from vacation! Zero orange effect, just a perfect complexion."

6. What is the difference between black soap with carrot and dietary supplements with beta-carotene?

The two approaches are complementary and act differently on your skin. For optimal results, you can even combine them!

BLACK CARROT SOAP (external application):

How it works:

  • Beta-carotene penetrates the superficial layers of the skin (epidermis)
  • Topical and direct action on skin cells
  • Locally stimulates melanin production
  • Prepares the skin surface for tanning

Advantages: ✅ Fast and visible effect (2-3 weeks) ✅ Targeted action on applied areas ✅ Exfoliation as a bonus that removes dead cells ✅ Hydration thanks to olive oil ✅ Full control of the result (adjustable frequency) ✅ No ingestion (no risk of overdose)

Disadvantages:

  • Requires regular application
  • Effect fades if stopped

BETA-CAROTENE DIETARY SUPPLEMENTS (internal use):

How it works:

  • Beta-carotene is ingested and circulates in the blood
  • Deposits in all body cells including the skin
  • Systemic action (whole body)
  • Conversion to vitamin A in the body

Advantages: ✅ Effect on the whole body uniformly ✅ Overall health benefits (vision, immunity, antioxidant) ✅ Easy to take (1 capsule/day) ✅ Lasting effect even after stopping (storage in tissues)

Disadvantages:

  • Slower effect (minimum 4-6 weeks)
  • Risk of overdose if misused (skin really orange)
  • Less targeted (does not specifically treat face vs body)
  • No exfoliation

OPTIMAL COMBO (soap + supplement):

Complete protocol for a dream tan:

6-8 weeks BEFORE vacation:

  • Beta-carotene dietary supplement (15-25 mg/day depending on product)
  • Black carrot soap 2x/week from week 3

During vacation:

  • Continue the supplement
  • Soap 1x/week

After vacation:

  • Stop the supplement after 2-3 weeks
  • Continue soap 2x/week to prolong

COMBO RESULTS:

  • Ultra-fast tan (from day 1-2 of exposure)
  • Evenly golden complexion from head to toe
  • Maximum internal protection against UV
  • Tan that lasts 3 months after vacation
  • Persistent healthy glow all year round

DIET RICH IN BETA-CAROTENE (natural alternative to supplements):

Instead of supplements, consume:

  • Fresh carrot juice: 1 glass/day (equivalent to 10-15mg beta-carotene)
  • Raw carrots: 2-3 carrots/day
  • Sweet potato: rich in beta-carotene
  • Mango, apricot: orange fruits
  • Spinach, kale: dark green vegetables

💡 Tip: Consume with a little fat (olive oil, avocado) because beta-carotene is fat-soluble and better absorbed this way!

OUR RECOMMENDATION:

Level 1 - Tight budget: Black carrot soap only (very effective)
Level 2 - Fast results: Soap + carrot-rich diet
Level 3 - Maximum results: Soap + supplements + diet (ultimate combo)

Whatever your approach, soap remains essential for exfoliation and direct topical effect!

7. Can I use carrot soap during pregnancy?

Yes, it is perfectly safe! The black soap with carrot for external use presents no danger during pregnancy or breastfeeding. Beta-carotene applied to the skin does not enter the bloodstream in significant amounts.

PREGNANCY SAFETY:

External use (soap): ✅ 100% SAFE

  • Beta-carotene remains in the superficial layers of the skin
  • No significant systemic absorption
  • No risk to the baby
  • Same principle as eating carrots (safe)

Oral beta-carotene supplements: ⚠️ TO DISCUSS with your doctor

  • High doses of vitamin A during pregnancy can be problematic
  • Beta-carotene converts to vitamin A in the body
  • Consult before taking supplements

BENEFITS DURING PREGNANCY:

1. Pregnancy mask (melasma):

  • The soap can reduce the spots of the pregnancy mask
  • Gentle and natural lightening action
  • Use 2x/week on the face

2. Hydration:

  • Skin is often drier during pregnancy
  • Olive oil in black soap nourishes intensely
  • Prevents stretch marks (belly, breasts, hips)

3. Moral boost:

  • A nice tan brightens the mood
  • Feeling beautiful despite body changes
  • Moment of relaxation and self-care

4. Safe alternative to the sun:

  • Many pregnant women avoid the sun (pregnancy mask worsens)
  • Soap gives a healthy glow without UV exposure
  • No risk of overheating

PREGNANCY PROTOCOL:

Body use:

  • 1 to 2x/week throughout pregnancy
  • Very gentle exfoliation (skin is more sensitive)
  • Focus on belly, hips, thighs (stretch mark areas)
  • Maximum hydration afterward with shea butter or sweet almond oil

Face use:

  • 2x/week if pregnancy mask
  • Maximum 10 minutes application
  • Ultra-gentle exfoliation with fingers
