Botanic Tree Kombucha & Glycolic Acid Exfoliating Face Wash — 10% Glycolic, Salicylic for Brightening and Hydration

Botanic Tree Kombucha & Glycolic Acid Exfoliating Face Wash is a gentle daily cleanser that uses 10% glycolic and salicylic acids plus kombucha and botanical extracts to exfoliate, brighten, and help reduce the appearance of dark spots and breakouts.

This facial wash blends chemical exfoliation with soothing plant ingredients to remove dead skin, excess oil, and makeup without leaving skin tight or flaky. Formulated for adults and teens, the cleanser combines glycolic and salicylic acids for surface and pore-level exfoliation, while kombucha, bamboo, shea butter, and tea tree extract support skin tone and comfort. It aims to deliver smoother texture, reduced pore visibility, and a fresher-looking complexion when used as part of a regular routine.

How does this cleanser exfoliate without overdrying?

The formula uses a 10% concentration of glycolic acid for gentle chemical peeling alongside salicylic acid to reach inside pores. Instead of abrasive scrub particles, the acids dissolve dead skin cells and oil, reducing friction and irritation. Shea butter and kombucha provide moisturizing and calming properties so skin feels supple after rinsing.

• 10% glycolic acid for surface exfoliation
• Salicylic acid for pore cleansing and oil control
• Shea butter and kombucha to support hydration
• Sulfate-light lather that rinses clean without tightness

Will this help fade dark spots and uneven tone?

Regular exfoliation helps speed the removal of pigmented, damaged surface cells, which can make dark spots appear lighter over time. Combined with bamboo extract and antioxidants from kombucha, the cleanser supports a more even-looking complexion when used consistently. Visible improvements in texture and clarity can appear within weeks for many users.

• Targets dead skin that traps discoloration
• Botanical extracts help soothe and brighten
• Use 2–5 times weekly depending on tolerance
• Works as a prep step before serums or moisturizers

Is this product suitable for acne-prone and sensitive skin?

The pairing of glycolic and salicylic acids addresses both surface flakiness and clogged pores, which helps reduce breakouts for many skin types. The formula emphasizes gentle actives and calming botanicals to avoid excessive irritation; start slowly and monitor reaction. For highly reactive skin, alternate nights or mix with a milder cleanser until tolerance builds.

• Formulated for sensitive, oily, and acne-prone skin
• Non-abrasive chemical exfoliation minimizes microtears
• Tea tree extract supports a clearer skin environment
• Recommended gradual introduction: 2–3 times per week initially

How should I add this face wash to my skincare routine?

Use a small amount on damp skin, massage gently for 30–60 seconds, then rinse thoroughly and pat dry. Follow with a hydrating serum and SPF in the morning; at night pair with a nourishing moisturizer. Avoid combining strong retinoids or other high-strength acids on the same day until you know your skin’s tolerance.

• Apply to damp skin, rinse well; do not scrub
• Use 2–5 times weekly as tolerated
• Always wear sunscreen during daytime use
• Introduce gradually when combining with other actives
