Sothys Desquacrem Forte Microderm – 50ml
A stronger version of Sothys' signature deep cleanser. It pairs 2% salicylic acid with fine rice micro-grains to cleanse deep into pores and exfoliate in one step. The texture is a soapy, grainy, iridescent white wax. It suits normal, combination and oily skin that is clogged, thickened, unevenly pigmented or showing signs of ageing and sun damage.
Features:
• Deep-pore cleansing plus exfoliation in one product
• Clearer, brighter, smoother skin with a revitalized complexion
• Skin feels soft and comfortable, without tightness
• In the brand's 21-person, 21-day test, smoother skin scored +39% (brand-run test, so individual results vary)
Key ingredients:
• Salicylic acid 2%: removes dead cells, purifies pores and promotes radiance
• Rice micro-grains: provide gentle mechanical exfoliation
• Lipoamino acids: mild cleansing agents
• Gypsophila (soapwort) extract: a mild natural cleansing agent
• Olive-derived squalane: listed by the brand as an active.
How to use:
1. Spread a thin layer over clean, damp skin, avoiding the eye area.
2. Massage in circular motions with damp fingertips.
3. Leave on for 1–3 minutes.
4. Re-emulsify with lukewarm water and rinse. Repeat until fully removed.
5. Follow with a lotion for your skin type, then your Sothys serum and cream.
Use twice a week.
Why choose it:
• Two exfoliation methods in one: chemical (salicylic acid) and physical (rice grains)
• A good step up if the classic Desquacrem isn't strong enough for congestion or dullness
• Targets uneven texture and pigmentation as well as clogged pores
• Rinses off and leaves skin comfortable rather than tight
• A twice-weekly treatment, so 50 ml lasts a good while.
Cautions:
Not recommended for sensitive skin or fragile capillaries. Avoid it if pregnant or breastfeeding, and it isn't suitable for children. Use sunscreen daily, since exfoliating acids can increase sun sensitivity.
