Advanced Exfoliating Facial
AHA + BHA FACIAL
Experience the art of sophisticated skin renewal with Nurim AHA + BHA facial - an advanced exfoliating ritual works across the different layer of the skin’s surface – lifting away accumulated dead cells which gently renew the skin’s surface while helping to refine the appearance of pores, remove accumulated build up and improve the look of uneven texture and dullness. The AHA-BHA Facial combines the complimentary action of Alpha Hydroxy Acids and Beta Hydroxy Acids to deliver controlled, professional exfoliation.
