Scrubbing your face shouldn't feel like sandpaper. If your skin gets red, tight, or stings after exfoliating, you're not alone—over 60% of people with sensitive skin report irritation from the wrong products. The good news? You can still exfoliate safely. The trick is choosing a facial scrub that's genuinely gentle and designed for sensitive skin.
Exfoliating too often can do more harm than good. For sensitive skin, once a week is usually enough. If your skin feels smooth and never gets flaky, some people find every 10 days is plenty. Listen to your skin—not the product label.
If you're searching for a gentle facial scrub that's truly made for sensitive skin, Lotus Botanicals provides formulas packed with plant-based exfoliants and calming extracts. Our scrubs are vegan, cruelty-free, and free from harsh chemicals—so you get smooth, happy skin without compromise. Check out the options at Lotus Botanicals.
1. How often should I use a gentle facial scrub if my skin is sensitive?
Once a week is plenty for most people with sensitive skin. If your skin never feels rough or flaky, every 10 days can work too. Overdoing it can lead to redness and irritation.
2. Which ingredients should I look for in a scrub for sensitive skin?
Opt for scrubs with ultra-fine powders like rice or bamboo, and soothing ingredients such as aloe vera, chamomile, or calendula. Avoid large, gritty particles and added fragrances.
3. Can a gentle scrub help with flaky patches on sensitive skin?
Yes, a gentle scrub can loosen and remove flaky skin, but it should be used sparingly. Always follow with a hydrating moisturizer to prevent dryness.
4. What are signs my facial scrub is too harsh?
If your skin feels tight, looks red, stings after use, or starts flaking more, your scrub is likely too abrasive. Switch to something milder right away.
5. Should I avoid all exfoliating scrubs if I have rosacea or eczema?
If you have active rosacea or eczema, it's best to skip physical scrubs and check with your dermatologist. Gentle enzyme exfoliants may be safer, but always patch-test first.
6. Is it safe to use a facial scrub around my eyes?
No, the skin around your eyes is thin and delicate, so avoid using any scrub in that area. Stick to your cheeks, forehead, nose, and chin.
7. Why is fragrance a problem in scrubs for sensitive skin?
Fragrances (even 'natural' ones) are a common cause of irritation and allergic reactions. Unscented or fragrance-free scrubs are much less likely to trigger problems.
8. How does Lotus Botanicals make their facial scrubs safe for sensitive skin?
We use plant-based exfoliants, calming botanicals, and never add parabens, sulfates, silicones, or synthetic fragrance. Everything is vegan and cruelty-free.
9. Where can I find a vegan gentle facial scrub for sensitive skin?
