What This Skin Refining Polish Does

The Intrinsic Skin Refining Polish is a gentle, yet effective face exfoliator and facial polish designed to lift away dull surface build-up and support healthy skin renewal, leaving skin noticeably smoother, softer and refreshed after every use.

Formulated with perfectly spherical biodegradable jojoba ester beads suspended in a lightweight hydrating gel, it gently polishes the skin's surface while respecting the skin's natural barrier. Suitable for mature and sensitive skin, it leaves skin feeling clean and comfortable — never stripped or tight — and creates the perfect canvas for the skincare products that follow.

WHAT YOUR SKIN WILL FEEL

  • Noticeably smoother skin after every use
  • Softer, more refined skin texture
  • Skin that feels clean and refreshed
  • Comfortable skin without the tight, stripped feeling
  • Beautifully prepared skin for your serums and moisturiser
  • Confidence that you're supporting healthy skin renewal while respecting your skin barrier

THIS IS FOR YOU IF:

  • Your skin feels rough, dull or uneven
  • You have mature or sensitive skin and want gentle physical exfoliation
  • You want smoother, softer skin without harsh scrubbing
  • Traditional facial scrubs leave your skin feeling stripped or uncomfortable
  • You value clean, ingredient-conscious skincare with no unnecessary ingredients
  • You want a gentle weekly skin polish that supports healthy skin renewal

WHY A POLISH OVER TRADITIONAL FACIAL SCRUBS?

As we age and skin becomes more mature, the natural renewal process slows, allowing dull surface cells to remain on the skin for longer. This can leave skin feeling rougher, looking less refined and prevent your skincare from performing at its very best.

Intrinsic Skin Refining Polish uses perfectly spherical biodegradable jojoba esters that gently polish the skin's surface without the harsh, irregular edges found in many traditional facial scrubs. Suspended in a lightweight hydrating gel, they glide comfortably across the skin to reveal smoother, softer-feeling skin while respecting the skin's natural barrier.

No harsh abrasion. No stripped feeling. Just beautifully refined skin.

Product Details

Key Ingredients

Biodegradable Jojoba Esters
Perfectly spherical, plastic-free polishing beads that gently lift away dull surface build-up while respecting the skin's natural barrier.

Propanediol
A naturally derived humectant that helps maintain skin hydration and provides a smooth, comfortable glide during use.

Sodium PCA
A skin-identical moisturising factor that attracts and retains moisture, helping skin feel soft and hydrated after polishing.

D-Panthenol (Pro-Vitamin B5)
Helps soothe and condition the skin, leaving it feeling comfortable, refreshed and cared for.

Why Intrinsic

Most skincare products are formulated with fillers, stabilisers and synthetic ingredients that pad out the formula and dilute results. At Intrinsic Skincare we believe you should never have to choose between clean ingredients and visible results.

Every Intrinsic formula is naturopath-developed and built on a simple principle — only ingredients that genuinely serve your skin make it into the bottle. No fillers. No compromise. No hidden nasties.

This means higher concentrations of active botanicals and clinical ingredients, products that last longer, and results you can actually see and feel.

Clean. Clinical. Uncompromising.

Directions for use

Apply a pea-sized amount to damp skin. Gently massage over the face using circular motions for 30–60 seconds, avoiding the eye area. Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water. Our lightweight, perfectly spherical biodegradable jojoba esters may require a little extra rinsing as they are designed to glide gently over the skin rather than dissolve during use. Follow with your favourite Intrinsic serum and moisturiser. Use 1–2 times per week.

Fragrance-free. Plastic-free polishing beads. Suitable for all skin types.

I have used the odd face scrub from time to time but this product is on another level! Easy to use, soft on your skin and when you rinse off, your skin is left feeling the smoothest it’s ever been, 5 stars from me!

Hard to pick a favourite product but this is up there. My skin felt so clean and smooth and the jojoba beads nourish the skin too so it doesn’t dry out the skin.

Thank you! I’m really pleased this is up there among your favourites. The jojoba beads do the polishing, but the nourishing gel base is just as important — it helps the skin feel comfortable and conditioned rather than dry or stripped after exfoliation.

Skin feels soft and smooth

Thank you so much. We love how soft and smooth the polish leaves the skin feeling, so it’s lovely to hear that you’ve noticed exactly that too.
