How to Use Curology Liquid Pore Exfoliant

A leave-on liquid exfoliant helps clear out dead skin cells that can clog pores, so skin feels smoother and pores can look less congested. Used a few times a week, the Curology Liquid Pore Exfoliant is an easy way to add exfoliation to your routine.

Step-by-Step (Evening)

  1. Cleanse and pat your skin dry.
  2. Apply a small amount to a cotton pad.
  3. Sweep it gently over your face, avoiding the eyes and lips. Don't rinse.
  4. Let it dry, then follow with a moisturizer.

How Often to Use It

  • Start with 2 to 3 evenings a week. If your skin stays comfortable, you can use it more often.
  • Don't use it on the same night as retinol or other exfoliating acids, and skip it on broken, sunburned or irritated skin.
  • Exfoliants can make skin more sensitive to the sun, so wear SPF 30 or higher every morning.
  • Patch-test first, and stop if you feel lasting stinging or see redness.

Build a Simple Routine

Alternate nights: exfoliant one evening, retinol another, and a plain moisturizer on rest nights. In the morning, a vitamin C serum plus sunscreen. Read our retinol guide for more on starting slowly.
