Abstract
A method, a product and an apparatus for cleaning the epidermis, wherein a magnetic or magnetizable substance applied onto the epidermis is caused to penetrate into the pores of the skin, and is then extracted with the pollutants from the excretory ducts of the pores by being subjected to the influence of a magnet applied onto the epidermis. The magnetic or magnetizable substance penetrates the pores of the skin by massaging the substance to insert it between the dead cells of the skin and the waste products excreted by the skin.
