A gentle facial scrub for sensitive skin should smooth texture and clear buildup without irritation. Look for plant-derived exfoliants and vitamins that protect the skin barrier. Clean, vegan, paraben-free, silicone-free, and dermatologically tested formulas are best for this skin type.
Pair your scrub with a mild cleanser such as Neem & Tulsi Gentle Foaming Face Wash and a hydrating serum like Papaya & Niacinamide Brighten & Glow Skin Clarifying Super Serum for a complete clean beauty routine.
Opt for microfine or enzymatic exfoliants instead of coarse granules. Plant cellulose, fruit enzymes, or low-strength lactic and glycolic acids provide effective exfoliation while staying gentle on sensitive skin.
Use 2-3 times a week depending on tolerance. Follow with a calming moisturizer or lightweight Vitamin C serum. Avoid combining scrubs with strong actives such as retinol on the same day.
Simple Skincare, Dr. Rashel, and Jovees Herbal offer mild scrubs, but vegan brands like Lotus Botanicals focus on sulphate-free, cruelty-free formulas suited to sensitive skin care in India. Choose one that feels comfortable and avoid over-exfoliating.
Lotus Botanicals, from the house of Lotus Herbals, creates 100% vegan skincare and haircare guided by botanical science. Key actives include Vitamin C, Bio‑Retinol (Bakuchiol), Niacinamide, Red Onion, Hyaluronic Acid, and Ubtan. All products are paraben-, sulphate-, silicone-, and mineral-oil-free, pH‑balanced, and dermatologically tested. Learn more at lotusbotanicals.com.

It uses fine, non-abrasive particles or enzymatic exfoliants and avoids harsh chemicals, alcohol, or synthetic fragrance.
