| Verdict | Icelandic volcanic pumice does the polish, lactic acid does the chemistry, and BIOEFFECT's barley extract sneaks in a dose of their EGF-adjacent science. The texture is silky, the grit is fine enough to respect your barrier. | Stockholm's take on a weekly peel: salicylic for the pores, lactic for the surface, and a low-dose retinol derivative (Retinyl Retinoate, their signature) for long-game turnover. Use it twice a week on a tolerant skin, not every night. |
