What it is
Jack Black Deep Dive Glycolic Facial Cleanser is a creamy cleanser for normal, combination and oily skin. It combines a chemical exfoliant with clay and a fine physical exfoliant, and the brand says it can double as a purifying mask.
Key ingredients
- Glycolic acid: An alpha hydroxy acid that loosens dead skin cell buildup. Jack Black says it also helps prevent ingrown hairs.
- Kaolin clay: Used to draw out oil and dirt.
- Volcanic ash: Described as a gentle physical exfoliant.
How to use
As a cleanser, lather a small amount with wet hands, massage onto a damp face in circles and rinse straight away. As a mask, apply to a dry face, avoiding the eyes and lips, leave for about five minutes and rinse.
Who should be careful
Glycolic acid is an exfoliating acid. If your skin is raw after shaving, or you already use another acid or retinoid, this may be one exfoliant too many. Avoid the eye area and lips.
What the brand claims
Jack Black says Deep Dive leaves skin fresher, smoother and clearer-looking. The page gives no clinical figures.
