About six months ago, I headed to Golden Apple with a specific product in mind – a gentle exfoliating scrub that wouldn't dry out my skin. The sales assistant suggested I try the Pusii Gel, even let me test it on my hands first. I had a great experience with a Korean scrub, which really got my skin clean while making it feel smooth. I wanted something similar but with acids in the formula.

Design is super minimalist, done in a completely white color scheme. I really love simple packaging in cosmetics. The bottle itself came in a cardboard box with all the necessary information.
It's also duplicated on the bottle itself. Read it carefully!
Warning: use with caution if pregnant or breastfeeding.
Do not apply if skin integrity is compromised, or if you have severe dryness or increased skin sensitivity.
Ingredients:
Aqua, Propylene Glycol, Microcrystalline cellulose, Citrus Aurantium Dulcis Juice, Citrus Limon Juice, Zingiber Officienale Root Juice, Cetrimonium Chloride, Carbomer, Phenoxyethanol, Ethylhexylglycerin, PEG-40 Hydrogenated Castor Oil, Citric Acid, Sodium Benzoate, Potassium Sorbate, Parfum, Hexylcinnamaldehyd, Linalool.
I've got to say, the dosing mechanism is pretty cool. It uses a pump with a slightly dried-out nozzle, but that doesn't seem to affect the flow of the product at all.
The texture is quite liquid, with some small abrasive particles in there.
As for usage:
Cleanse your face with a micellar water and a gentle cleanser first.Apply the peel-off mask to your clean, dry face in a thin layer, leaving it on for 1-2 minutes.Gently massage your face in circular motions for 30-60 seconds, until the gel starts to peel off. Don't stretch your skin and avoid the eye area.Rinse thoroughly with warm water.Finish off with a soothing mask or moisturizer.Don't forget to apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen after the procedure.During my visit to the ZYA store, I was told that I could use this peel-off mask every day before applying makeup for a smoother finish. While it might work for oily skin, I'm not sure if it's worth the risk of clogging pores and drying out your skin.
I usually do these deep cleansing procedures about once a month, as my skin doesn't require too much maintenance. Although, I did have a period where I overdid it with hydrating oils and ended up with a bunch of closed comedones. Once I stopped using them, they cleared up on their own.
I've found that this product needs to be applied for a few minutes before I can 'roll it off'. The resulting clumps pick up all the grease, dirt, and makeup residue like a vacuum cleaner. Despite the acidity, my skin doesn't get red, just a slight stinging sensation for a few seconds at first.
If you do experience any discomfort, I recommend using the product less frequently to give your skin time to adjust to its effects.
When I rinse it off, my skin feels soft and supple, with no discomfort at all. This is definitely a great way to clean my skin. It leaves my skin looking refreshed, matte, but still feeling fresh and clean!
After washing, I follow up with a toner to balance my skin's pH level and then apply a Pantothenol cream.
After this routine, my skin feels great. Over time, redness and post-acne scars become less noticeable, blackheads lighten up, and my skin looks refreshed and improved overall. But it's essential not to neglect daily cleansing. I always remove my makeup before bed using a micellar water gel.
For me, quality cleansing is not just about clean pores; it's also about being gentle on skin like mine. The enzyme powder from Stellary, for example, really pulls at my skin, and I don't see any benefits. This kind of cleansing just isn't for me.
Result:
Pusii Peel-Off was a hit with me from the very first use last spring, but I decided to put it to the test a bit longer. And now, after six months, I can confidently say that this peel-off mask is perfect for me and even my daughter who's starting to show signs of puberty. We've still got half a container left, and I think it'll last us for a while.
I've been using Pusii Exfoliating Face Scrub for six months now, and I must say it's been a game-changer for my skin. The gentle exfoliating formula is perfect for dry skin like mine, and the addition of acids helps to brighten and even out my complexion.
The packaging is simple and minimalist, which I love. The bottle itself is made of a sturdy plastic material that feels good in the hand, and the pump mechanism is easy to use. The product is dispensed in a controlled amount, which helps to prevent waste and ensure that you get the right amount for your face.
The texture of the scrub is quite liquid, with small abrasive particles that help to gently exfoliate the skin. It's not too harsh, but still effective at removing dead skin cells and other impurities. I've found that it's best to use it once or twice a week, depending on your skin type and needs.
One of the things I love about Pusii Exfoliating Face Scrub is that it's easy to use. Simply apply a thin layer to your face, massage it in for 30-60 seconds, and then rinse with warm water. It's a quick and easy process that leaves my skin feeling soft and supple.
After using Pusii Exfoliating Face Scrub, I always follow up with a toner to balance my skin's pH level and then apply a moisturizer. This helps to lock in the benefits of the scrub and keep my skin hydrated and healthy-looking.
Overall, I'm really impressed with Pusii Exfoliating Face Scrub. It's a great product that's perfect for dry skin like mine, and it's easy to use and gentle on the skin. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a good exfoliating scrub.
