Skin Refining Glaze is your daily dose of refinement. A lightweight exfoliating milk formulated with 6% mandelic acid to gently resurface texture and help refine the appearance of pores without the sting, tightness or over-exfoliation often associated with stronger acids.

Designed in a generous 115ml treatment format, Skin Refining Glaze supports consistent, long-term refinement without the need for harsh or aggressive exfoliation.

Night is ideal. But it is totally up to you, but let us explain why we prefer to recommend evening application.

Skin Refining Glaze contains 6% Mandelic Acid, which works by gently exfoliating the surface of the skin. Your skin naturally renews overnight, so applying it in the evening supports that process while minimising sun exposure.

Using it at night allows:
• Gradual refinement while you sleep
• Better tolerance
• Easy layering with your moisturiser
• No need to rush with SPF application immediately after

You can use it under makeup, and it is designed to layer.
For most people, this is the most effective and barrier-supportive way to use it.
Skin Refining Glaze is designed to improve texture, clarity, and glow, without compromising your skin barrier.

Here’s what you can expect with consistent use:

Smoother Texture
6% Mandelic Acid gently loosens surface buildup, so dull, uneven skin sheds more evenly.
Result:
• Softer-feeling skin
• Less visible texture
• A more refined surface

Better Light Reflection
When the texture is smoother, the skin reflects light more evenly.
That’s what creates the subtle “glazed” finish, even without makeup.

Clearer-Looking Pores
By helping prevent surface buildup, it supports smoother-looking pores over time.

Brighter Appearance
Rice Extract supports a more luminous look, helping skin appear fresher and more even.

Hydrated, Comfortable Skin
Unlike harsh exfoliators, Skin Refining Glaze includes:
• Beta Glucan for cushioning
• Squalane to reduce moisture loss

So your skin feels calm and hydrated, not stripped.
Yes it can be, when used correctly.

Skin Refining Glaze was formulated to refine texture without stripping, burning, or irritating the skin, which makes it friendlier for sensitive skin than many traditional exfoliants.

Here’s why:

Mandelic Acid has a larger molecular size than other AHAs, so it penetrates more slowly and gently.

Beta Glucan helps cushion and soothe the skin’s feel.

Squalane supports moisture balance and helps protect the skin barrier.

Rice Extract adds a gentle brightening benefit without harshness.

Together, these ingredients help refine texture while maintaining comfort.

How to Use It on Sensitive Skin

To minimise potential irritation:

Start slowly:
Use Skin Refining Glaze 1-2 nights per week to begin. Use it after your essence.

Build gradually:
Increase to every other night only if your skin tolerates it well.

Always follow with hydration (serum + moisturiser), and avoid pairing it with other exfoliating acids or potent actives in the same routine.

Signs It’s Working - Not Irritating

✔ Skin feels smooth (not tight)
✔ No burning or redness
✔ Makeup sits more evenly
✔ You notice a brighter texture over time

If your skin becomes red, tight, or uncomfortable, reduce frequency, healthy, calm skin always performs better.
Start 1-2 nights per week.

Skin Refining Glaze contains 6% Mandelic Acid, which gently exfoliates, but your skin still needs time to adjust.
You can increase to every second or third night, depending on tolerance.

Some skin types may comfortably use it more frequently, but consistency is more important than intensity.

Signs You’re Using It the Right Amount

✔ Skin feels smooth and calm
✔ Makeup applies more evenly
✔ No tightness or excessive sensitivity

If you notice redness, dryness, or irritation, scale back.

Yes — but it depends on how you use them.

Skin Refining Glaze contains 6% Mandelic Acid, which is an exfoliating AHA.
Retinol and other active treatments (like stronger acids) also increase cell turnover.

Layering too many actives in the same routine can increase the risk of irritation — even if each product is gentle on its own.

If You Use Retinol

The safest approach is to alternate nights:

• Night 1: Skin Refining Glaze
• Night 2: Retinol
• Night 3: Hydration-focused routine

This allows your skin to benefit from both without overwhelming your barrier.

If your skin is very resilient and experienced with actives, you may be able to layer, but alternating is the most barrier-supportive strategy.

If You Use Other Exfoliating Acids (Glycolic, Lactic, Salicylic)

Avoid using them in the same routine as Skin Refining Glaze.

Over-exfoliation can lead to:
• Redness
• Tightness
• Increased sensitivity
• Compromised barrier

Remember consistency beats intensity.

What You Can Pair It With

Skin Refining Glaze works beautifully alongside:

• Hydrating serums
• Barrier-supporting ingredients
• Niacinamide
• Peptides
• Essence steps
Totally!

Most exfoliating products focus only on resurfacing.
Skin Refining Glaze was formulated to refine and support hydration at the same time.

Here’s how:

Beta Glucan helps create that soft, cushioned feeling on the skin while supporting moisture retention.
Squalane helps reduce transepidermal water loss, keeping skin supple and comfortable.
The texture itself is rich and glaze-like, not thin or stripping.

So while 6% Mandelic Acid gently refines texture, the supporting ingredients help maintain a calm, hydrated barrier.

The result?

• Smoother-looking skin
• Comfortable wear overnight
• No tight, dry after-feel
• A soft, glazed finish

It’s exfoliation that feels nourishing, not aggressive.
Mandelic Acid gently loosens the buildup sitting on the surface of your skin.

Instead of aggressively peeling or stripping, it works by dissolving the bonds between dull, dead skin cells, allowing them to shed more evenly.

The result?

• Smoother texture
• Brighter-looking skin
• Clearer-looking pores
• Makeup that sits beautifully

What makes Mandelic Acid different is its larger molecular size. It penetrates more slowly than harsher acids, which means it refines gradually with less risk of irritation.

So you get the smoothing benefits of exfoliation
without the sting, redness, or compromised barrier.

It’s not about forcing your skin to react.
It’s about helping it renew, calmly and consistently.

That’s how you achieve that refined, glazed finish.
Skin Refining Glaze is your treatment step.

Use it after cleansing and before heavier serums or moisturisers.

Evening Routine Order (Recommended)

Cleanser

Essence (if using)

Skin Refining Glaze

Hydrating serum (optional)

Moisturiser

Because it contains 6% Mandelic Acid, it’s best used in your night routine, but some people love it under makeup.

Can I use it before or after the essence?

Either works.

• Apply after essence if you prefer extra hydration first.
• Apply directly after cleansing if you want a simplified routine.

Important

Avoid layering it in the same routine with other exfoliating acids or strong actives unless your skin is very experienced.

The goal is strategic refinement not overload.

Applied consistently in the right step, it helps smooth texture while keeping your barrier calm and supported.

My skin is glowing
I use the Skin Refining Glaze in my night time routine and in the morning my skin is glowing! My pores are much smaller and my skin looks more even after only a couple of uses. It’s definitely going to stay as a part of my skin care routine.

Great new product
I was lucky enough to receive the Skin Refining Glaze as a gift and didn’t really know what to expect. I noticed my skin felt and looked so dewy, and it looked really fresh the next morning. It's more like a serum.

My Skin Just Keeps Getting Better
Admittedly, I don’t usually get breakouts and I don’t have huge problems with my pores and after using ST.SAJ for over a year now on my over 50 something skin I can say my complexion is in amazing condition, really didn’t think that it could get any better.
I took the option of using the Skin Refining Glaze at night after I doubled cleansed and honestly, hand on heart I woke up to skin that felt and looked like I had a facial the day before. So soft and plumped and so smooth. Highly recommend. And again, I’m thankful I have found skin care that is perfect for my age… any age.

Such a different a product
I’ve tried so many exfoliating products but this one surprised me. It’s really gentle on my skin & it made me feel smoother. I also love that I can leave it on. I have used it more than the suggested 1-2 times a week because I love the feel, not sure if that is correct but I love the glaze it gives.

Trust the process
I was a bit unsure at first because you leave it on instead of washing it off, which felt different to what I’m used to. But after a couple of uses my skin felt so soft and smooth. It also looked more plump and fresh the next day. I think this could be my new favourite St.Saj product.

"Be a Smooth Operator"

I wanted an exfoliant that delivered serious smoothness and refined skin texture without stinging, irritation, and inflammation.
