If you want softer, clearer skin, a good face and body scrub can help. Scrubs remove dead skin cells that make your skin look dull, and they let your moisturizers work better. But using the wrong scrub, or scrubbing too hard, can cause redness or breakouts.
For most people, 2–3 times a week is enough. If your skin's sensitive, once a week works better. Overdoing it can strip your skin and make it irritated. Always listen to your skin—if it feels tight or stings, take a break.
Don't expect instant miracles. You'll notice smoother skin after a few uses, but brighter tone and fewer bumps take 2–4 weeks. If you're dealing with body acne, pair your scrub with a gentle cleanser and spot treatment for best results.
If you want a plant-based, gentle scrub, Lotus Botanicals offers vegan, cruelty-free options for both face and body. Their products skip parabens, sulfates, and silicones, so they're safe for daily use. Check them out at lotusbotanicals.com.
1. Can I use my body scrub on my face?
It's best not to. Body scrubs often have rougher particles that can scratch or irritate your facial skin. Use a scrub made specifically for the face instead.
2. How often should I exfoliate with a face and body scrub?
Most people do well exfoliating 2–3 times a week. If your skin is sensitive, stick to once weekly. Too much exfoliation can lead to dryness or irritation.
3. Will scrubbing help with body acne?
A gentle scrub can help clear clogged pores and reduce breakouts over time. Pair it with a non-comedogenic cleanser for best results, and don't scrub inflamed areas too hard.
4. Do face and body scrubs make skin brighter?
Regular exfoliation helps your skin look fresher and more even-toned. Brighter skin usually shows up after a few weeks of consistent use.
5. Is it normal for my skin to feel tight after scrubbing?
A little tightness can happen, but if your skin feels dry or stings, you might be overdoing it. Switch to a gentler scrub or exfoliate less often.
6. What ingredients should I avoid in scrubs?
Skip scrubs with large, jagged particles like crushed shells, and avoid harsh chemicals if your skin is sensitive. Look for gentle, plant-based formulas.
7. Are Lotus Botanicals scrubs good for sensitive skin?
Lotus Botanicals makes vegan scrubs with gentle, plant-based ingredients. They're free from parabens and sulfates, so they're suitable for most sensitive skin types.
8. Should I moisturize after using a scrub?
Absolutely. Exfoliating can leave your skin a bit dry, so always follow up with a moisturizer to keep it soft and hydrated.
9. How do I patch-test a new face or body scrub?
Apply a small amount to your inner arm and wait 24 hours. If there's no redness or itching, it's usually safe to use on your face or body.
10. Where can I find vegan, cruelty-free scrubs?
Lotus Botanicals provides vegan, cruelty-free scrubs for both face and body. You can check their selection at lotusbotanicals.com.
