the exfoliating potion

In this dual-powered potion, pumice powder uses physical exfoliation to lightly polish the skin, while glycolic acid works to remove dead skin cells and encourage cell turnover. Infused with antioxidant rich spirulina and green tea, this potion nourishes while providing a deep exfoliating treatment. The result is incredibly smooth, radiant and clean skin - ready to absorb your next step.

The lion in love was crafted to:

  • resurface the skin, removing dead skin cells and build-up
  • draw toxins and excess sebum out of pores
  • cleanse and nourish the skin
  • polish and smooth the skin surface 
  • fade discoloration or hyperpigmentation

* Due to handcrafted construction, all vessels will have unique striations and color patterns.

FAQs

When we say all of our products are double sized, we mean that we took the market average size for each type of product and simply doubled it. The average size for an exfoliating cleanser is 3.3oz, so we made ours 6.7oz. This means you can use the products for twice as long and repurchase half as often!

The exfoliating potion is formulated with glycolic acid. Glycolic acid is renowned for its ability to effectively, yet gently, remove dead skin cells. 

Those with very sensitive skin might experience slight redness or tingling after using the exfoliating potion. While this is normal for some, please discontinue use if it becomes more than a slight sensation.

While this potion does effectively remove face makeup, such as foundation, we do not recommend using it as such. Do not use this product on your eye area. Instead, please remove makeup prior to use so that the exfoliating potion can be its most effective.

The exfoliating potion is infused with green tea essential oil, which has a subtle pleasant scent.

Exfoliation dream!

This product feels really good on the skin. It does have a texture sort of like a scrub but this product is not overly abrasive AT ALL. It left my skin feeling smoother and my pores have never felt more clean. 10/10 recommend for all your exfoliant needs.

I bought this because I was attracted to the bottle and I'm so happy I got it. The bottle really is stunning and the cleanser is AMAZING. The formula is not overly abrasive, which is perfect for my skin. I've noticed a significant improvement in the overall tone and texture of my skin since using this scrub. I highly recommend it for anyone seeking a gentle yet effective exfoliating cleanser or something super pretty for their bathroom lol

Really good cleanser and such a pretty bottle

This exfoliating cleanser is a game-changer! The combination of glycolic acid and pumice powder works wonders on my skin. I've noticed a visible improvement in my skin's texture and clarity since using this product. The best part is that it doesn't leave my skin feeling dry or tight. Also, the bottle is GORGEOUS.

It deeply cleanses and exfoliates without being harsh on my skin. My complexion looks clearer and more refined, and I've noticed fewer breakouts since using it. The scrub has a pleasant, mild scent, and it's become an essential part of my weekly skincare routine.

It's the best

I can't get enough of this exfoliating face wash! The gentle exfoliating of pumice powder combined with the power of glycolic acid has improved the texture of my skin significantly. It's like having a mini-spa treatment at home. My face feels incredibly soft and refreshed after each use, and it's helped to keep my breakouts at bay. The best part is that it doesn't dry out my skin, even with regular use. It delivers on its promises.

It works!

Age-defying skincare enthusiasts, rejoice! The exfoliating potion is your ticket to smoother, more youthful skin. It removes dead skin cells, diminishes fine lines, and unclogs pores. I've noticed my skin is much more receptive to other skincare products after using this cleanser. While it tingles slightly on application, it's a small price to pay for such impressive results.

love at first use

Woah. I noticed a change in my skin after ONE use - my skin was super clean but still so soft. Usually after I exfoliate I feel super dry and stripped.I've never spent this much on a cleanser, but it's a must have. And the bottle is just beautiful, I love seeing it in my bathroom.

Magnificent

My products arrived in magnificent packaging and contained creative cards describing the fables that inspired the products. Charming and lovely details down to the tissue paper wrapping the beautiful vessel and lovely lip balm. THEN I tried the products .. oh my goodness. After just one or two beautiful face exfoliations I am hooked on the lovely THE LION IN LOVE potion. It is incredibly smoothing and effective, and a beautiful fragrance that is very subtle. THANK YOU for creating these magnificent products.

Fresh & glowing

I have been using this exfoliating potion 3 times a week at night for about a month now and…it has transformed my skin. It feels so great each time I use it and I wake up with a smooth, healthy, glow. I typically have redness, dry patches, and occasional blemishes. Not anymore! I can’t say enough about how great this product is. I can’t wait to try the infused balm next!

Fresh Skin Potion

This is such a beautiful product - the texture of the potion somehow achieves both lightness and density at the same time. My skin feels so nourished while the teeny little pumice stones remove all that's ready to slough off. It feels so refining and gentle on my skin, and afterwards my face glows with freshness, lit from within, all dullness gone. Gorgeous product, not to mention the witch's dream of a glass bottle it comes in. This whole line presents such a gorgeous line-up in the bathroom. Stunning and powerful!

Pesky black heads be gone!

I have dry and acne prone skin, and struggle with clogged pores and black heads. With introducing this potion a few times a week I can clearly see the difference…. Black heads be gone! And let’s be honest this is the prettiest thing in my bathroom! You will not regret adding this to your skincare regiment.

Love this exfoliating potion!

I’ve been searching for a good, natural face exfoliator that is gentle enough to use throughout my pregnancy for awhile now and am so glad I found this product! It leaves my face feeling fresh and smooth all day long, even in my dry winter climate. Plus, the bottle is seriously gorgeous. It instantly pretties up my bathroom. Can’t wait to try the other products in this collection!

What a potion!

I’ve always found it very difficult to find an exfoliator that doesn't make my skin irritated after. This product not only makes my skin feel velvety smooth, but it also removes inflammation from any breakouts or discoloration I may be experiencing. Pure magic!

P.S.
THE VESSEL IS DIVINE! So elegantly crafted. Thankyou! Thankyou! Thankyou!

Exfoliation without dryness!

I wanted to use it a couple of times before I gave my feedback and honestly, I think it’s great! Normally when I exfoliate my skin is so dry after I feel like I have to put moisturizer on ASAP. With your product my skin feels so soft, clean and buttery with no dryness afterwards! Definitely going to continue using it!
