Gentle Exfoliating Cleanser for Oily, Congested & Dull Skin

Looking for a facial cleanser that does more than wash your face?

Circadia Micro-Exfoliating Honey Cleanser is a gentle daily exfoliating cleanser that removes dirt, excess oil, sunscreen, and dead skin cells while helping smooth rough texture and refine the appearance of pores. Formulated with HoneyBeads® (natural beeswax microbeads) and honey, this professional cleanser deeply cleanses without over-drying, leaving your skin soft, refreshed, and balanced.  

As a Licensed Esthetician and Certified Acne Expert, I recommend this cleanser to clients with oily, combination, congested, or dull skin who want smoother skin without using harsh scrubs. It’s a great option for maintaining healthy skin between professional facials and exfoliating treatments.

Why I Recommend It

One of the biggest mistakes I see is people using harsh scrubs that leave their skin irritated. Healthy exfoliation should leave your skin feeling smoother—not raw.

I love the Circadia Micro-Exfoliating Honey Cleanser because it gives a gentle polish while cleansing. It’s an excellent choice for clients who experience rough texture, clogged pores, or excess oil and want to keep their skin looking fresh between professional treatments.

💕 Cindy’s Esthetician Tip

 If your skin feels rough or looks dull, you don’t always need a strong peel. Gentle, consistent exfoliation often gives better long-term results. I recommend this cleanser to clients who want smoother skin and a healthy glow without over-exfoliating. Just remember—not every skin type needs physical exfoliation every day, so I’ll help you find the right routine for your skin.
