Botanic Tree Kombucha Exfoliating Face Wash — For Aging Skin, 10% Glycolic & Probiotic Clarifying Cleanser

Botanic Tree Kombucha & Glycolic Acid Exfoliating Face Wash is a gentle deep-cleaning cleanser that combines 10% glycolic and salicylic acids with kombucha and botanical extracts to smooth texture, reduce breakouts, and brighten skin.

This facial wash blends chemical exfoliation and probiotic-rich kombucha with nourishing botanicals to target uneven texture, post-acne marks, and excess oil without leaving skin tight or flaky. Formulated for sensitive, oily, and acne-prone complexions, it aims to lift away dead skin cells, clear pores, and support a more even tone while delivering hydration from shea and bamboo extracts.

How will this wash affect my morning and evening routine?

Use the cleanser 2–5 times weekly depending on your skin’s tolerance; it pairs well with gentle moisturizers and SPF in the morning or richer creams at night. The lather removes makeup and oil while chemical exfoliants work to refresh the surface without abrasive scrubbing.

• Use with lukewarm water to avoid over-drying.
• Apply a pea-sized amount, massage gently for 30–60 seconds.
• Follow with moisturizer and daytime SPF or a calming night serum.

What active ingredients are inside and what do they do?

The formula centers on 10% glycolic acid (AHA) and salicylic acid (BHA) to dissolve dead skin and clear congested pores, while kombucha supplies antioxidants and probiotic-supporting extracts. Complementary botanicals like tea tree, bamboo, and shea butter help soothe, hydrate, and support barrier function.

• Glycolic acid: resurfaces and refines texture.
• Salicylic acid: penetrates pores to reduce blackheads and breakouts.
• Kombucha and tea tree: antioxidant and clarifying support.
• Bamboo and shea: gentle nourishment to prevent tightness.

Will this irritate sensitive or aging skin?

The wash was crafted to be effective yet gentle; however, because it contains potent acids, gradual introduction is recommended for reactive skin. Start with once or twice weekly and increase frequency as your skin builds tolerance, and discontinue if persistent irritation occurs.

• Begin with low-frequency use and patch-test first.
• Avoid combining with other strong acids or retinoids on the same night.
• Use daily SPF—exfoliation increases sun sensitivity.

How quickly will I see texture and tone improvements?

Individual responses vary, but many users notice smoother skin and less surface oiliness within about one week of regular use. More noticeable fading of dark spots and improved overall tone typically occurs over several weeks with consistent use and sun protection.

• Texture improvements can appear in 1–2 weeks.
• Dark spot fading may take multiple weeks of consistent use.
• Combine with a full skincare routine for best results.
