Description
Strong preservatives, fragrance and essential oils can trigger irritation
Our Fruit AHAs Exfoliating Mask was formulated to avoid these hidden triggers and keep sensitive skin calm and nourished.
Exfoliation + Nourishment
It leaves my skin smooth and bright and while it exfoliates, it nourishes it at the same time. It does what it says on the tin (no pun intended). Love it! Jana
Gentle on sensitive skin
Exfoliators usually cause me irritation because of my sensitive skin but this one is very gentle. My skin looks healthier and feels a lot smoother. Lauren
Star Ingredients
At Whitfords, we use efficacious renewable ingredients that are gentle on sensitive skin. We prioritise ingredients that are organic, upcycled – such as strawberry seed oil and papaya enzymes – obtained via fermentation processes or are lab-grown (like micro-algae).
White Willow Bark Extract: as the pores in our skin collect dirt and debris they become irritated; exfoliation clears away this unwanted pollution and dead cells. The bark of the beautiful White Willow tree provides us with a natural source of salicylic acid, known to encourage anti-microbial activity, cell renewal and antioxidant protection without the associated irritation that synthetic salicylic acid can cause.
Natural Alpha Hydroxy Acids (AHAs): from Bilberry, Sugar Cane, Orange, Lemon, and Sugar Maple extracts, to gently exfoliate impurities and help minimise the appearance of wrinkles.
No harsh preservatives, synthetic fragrances or essential oils, making it ideal for sensitive skin. We let the subtle, naturally occurring scent of the botanicals in the formula take centre stage.
Instructions
Apply with dry fingers onto dry face and massage gently for a minute with your hands. Leave for four minutes then rinse thoroughly and pat dry gently with a clean towel. Do not introduce water in the jar and keep it tightly closed to avoid compromising the product’s self-preserving ability. Do not use beyond the BBE date (Best Before end of).
Please note: this product contains a very small percentage of RSPO-Certified palm oil. Read where we stand on palm oil.
Formula & Manufacturing Process
A minimalist, self-preserving formulation with negligible water use. We use an oil-thickener and emulsifier based on sugar chemistry to create a rich and stable gel without the use of petroleum-derived gelling agents or surfactants. The manufacturing process takes place with minimum use of heat.

Ethical Credentials
Renewable Bio-Based Ingredients
Our products harness the power of nature through innovative and effective ingredients derived from plants, algae, and beneficial microorganisms.
100% Plastic-Free Skincare
Our packaging is 100% plastic-free. You won’t find a small plastic cap, insert, label, lid or dropper. When we say no plastic, we mean it. Our aluminium containers are reusable and endlessly recyclable.
Vegan Friendly & Cruelty-Free
All our botanical ingredients are vegan-friendly and cruelty-free.
100% Petroleum-free Skincare
Petroleum is not renewable, therefore not sustainable. This includes mineral oil, PEGs (polyethylene glycols), SLS/SLES (sodium lauryl sulfate / sodium laureth sulfate) and parabens. Thousands of plant-derived cosmetic ingredients exist, and there is absolutely no good reason to incorporate petroleum into our skincare routines.
Palm Policy
We use either alternatives to palm-oil or Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO) certified derivatives that have not been farmed through deforestation. At present, all our products are palm-free, with the exception of our Fruit AHAs Exfoliating Mask and our Centella Elasticity Daily Cleanser which contain a very small percentage of a RSPO certified palm derivative.

Organic
Whenever possible or available, we prioritise organic ingredients.
One new tree with every order
As a way to give back and help reduce the amount of carbon out there, we have partnered with Ecologi. For every order we receive, we plant one tree with them. This tangible act will have lasting effect beyond your product and hopefully beyond all of us!
Transparent
We pledge to always tell it like it is. No exaggerations, distorted information, convenient omissions, concealed facts, baffling marketing gibberish or superstition.
Whitfords Studio
Our London studio was designed and built in-house and all our products are made there: we don’t use external manufacturers. It even has a green roof to catch all rain water! The electricity used is 100% certified renewable and UK generated, adding to the goal of conserving resources whenever possible.

Smoothing mask
Totally love this. Yet another great product from Whitfords. I’m not usually a fan of masks but this is so easy to use and my skin has a real glow for a couple of days afterwards.
