Finding an exfoliating scrub for sensitive skin means choosing formulas that smooth and renew without causing redness. Look for mild, plant-based ingredients and skip harsh grains, alcohol, or synthetic fragrance.
All Lotus Botanicals scrubs are vegan, cruelty-free, and free from parabens, silicones, sulphates, and mineral oil. Use once or twice weekly based on your skin’s comfort level.
Test a small amount on the inner arm or jawline and wait 24 hours before applying fully. Begin weekly, then adjust frequency if your skin tolerates it well. Keep scrubs in a cool, dry place to maintain their active botanicals.
After exfoliation, apply a gentle moisturizer and sunscreen such as the Carrot & Niacinamide Glow and De-Tan Mineral Sunscreen SPF 50+. Freshly exfoliated skin is more sensitive to UV, so daily protection matters.
Physical scrubs use fine natural particles for quick smoothness. Chemical exfoliants rely on mild acids like lactic or glycolic to dissolve dead cells. Sensitive skin often benefits from hybrid formulas with low acid levels and botanical buffers. Pairing enzyme-based cleansers with gentle AHAs can improve clarity without irritation.
