Product Info
PCA Skin Pore Refining Treatment – A rinse-off exfoliating treatment that combines physical, enzymatic and cellular exfoliation to leave skin dramatically smoother and softer while absorbing the excess oil that makes pores look larger.
  • Pumice and rice powder physically slough away dead skin buildup, dirt and debris
  • Papain, a natural enzyme from papaya, gently breaks down dull surface cells
  • Mandelic acid provides cellular exfoliation for a brighter-looking complexion
  • Kaolin and bentonite clays absorb excess oil trapped in pores to minimize their appearance
  • Panthenol, vitamin E and bisabolol help keep skin comfortable; use one to three times a week
Who benefits? Oily, combination and breakout-prone skin with visibly enlarged or congested pores, rough texture or excess shine that wants a deeper exfoliation at home once to three times a week.
How to Use

Step 1: Cleanse skin.
Step 2: Apply to the face and massage in gentle circular motions, avoiding the eye area.
Step 3: Rinse thoroughly with warm water and pat dry.
Step 4: Follow with the appropriate PCA Skin toner and treatment serums, then a broad-spectrum SPF in the daytime or a moisturizer in the evening.
Step 5: Use morning or evening, one to three times per week, based on skin type and condition.

Caution: For external use only. Avoid contact with eyes; if contact occurs, rinse thoroughly with water. Contains an alpha hydroxy acid (mandelic acid) that may increase sun sensitivity, so use a broad-spectrum sunscreen daily. Do not use on broken, sunburned or irritated skin. Discontinue use if irritation occurs.

Three-Way Exfoliation

Key Ingredients

Cellular Exfoliation
Mandelic Acid

Cellular Exfoliation

An alpha hydroxy acid that loosens the bonds between dead skin cells, mandelic acid provides cellular exfoliation that leaves skin looking bright and smooth. Its larger molecular size makes it one of the gentler AHAs.

Papain
Enzymatic Exfoliation

Papain

A natural enzyme from papaya, papain has gentle exfoliating properties, breaking down the dead surface proteins that leave skin looking dull and feeling rough.

Pumice and Rice Powder
Physical Exfoliation

Pumice and Rice Powder

Fine pumice and rice powder are physical exfoliants that slough away surface buildup, while kaolin and bentonite clays absorb excess oil and impurities from the pores.

Need to Know

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know before choosing, using, and caring for your skin with Purity products.

Explore Help Center
How is this different from Daily Exfoliant?

Daily Exfoliant is a gentle, acid-free exfoliating cleanser you can use every day. Pore Refining Treatment is a stronger weekly treatment that layers physical, enzymatic and cellular exfoliation with oil-absorbing clays. Use it after cleansing, one to three times a week, on the days you want a deeper clean.

How often should I use it?

PCA Skin recommends one to three times per week, morning or evening, based on your skin type and condition. Start with once a week and add a second or third session only if your skin stays comfortable.

Is it okay for sensitive skin?

It's a strong exfoliant designed mainly for oily and combination skin. If your skin is sensitive or rosacea-prone, ask your provider first and patch test. Never use it on sunburned, broken or actively irritated skin.

Can I use it with retinol or peel pads?

Not on the same night. Retinol, peel pads and other acid treatments all exfoliate, and stacking them can over-exfoliate and irritate. Use Pore Refining Treatment on alternate nights, and hold off before and after in-office peels or laser per your provider.

Do I need sunscreen when using it?

Yes. Mandelic acid is an alpha hydroxy acid, and AHAs can increase your skin's sensitivity to the sun. Wear a broad-spectrum SPF every day, and keep it up for at least a week after you stop using the product.

How long does a tube last?

It depends on how often you use it. With a nickel-sized amount one to three times a week, a 2.1 oz tube typically lasts about three to six months.
