Used to create clean skin, this skincare product, also called an exfoliant, is enriched with very fine and slightly abrasive particles. Here are all the benefits it offers each time you apply it to your skin.
Exfoliating the skin of the face is a beauty gesture to adopt. To do this, we choose a product capable of fulfilling its mission. What exactly is a face scrub?
The exfoliant removes dead cells
With age, stress and external aggressions (pollution, UV rays, etc.), skin cells renew themselves less quickly and less well. They accumulate and the skin thickens, the complexion becomes dull. Gentle exfoliation promotes cell renewal. The pores are tightened, the skin texture becomes smoother and the complexion, more radiant.
Face scrub loosens dirt
Under the action of the exfoliating particles, impurities in the skin are dissolved, just like toxins and pollution. And all the more so if the scrub contains a depolluting plant extract (moringa, blueberry …). It also decreases excess sebum, which clogs the pores, thus limiting the formation of blackheads and pimples. Attention, in case ofacne, exfoliation is not recommended, otherwise it will irritate the skin further.
It stimulates microcirculation
Applying it massages the face, which stimulates microcirculation. Result, the skin is better oxygenated, better nourished, more elastic.
In addition, by using a scrub, it facilitates the penetration of the products which are then used. Rid of dead cells, the skin also becomes more receptive to this care.
A texture adapted to his skin
Better to choose the texture according to your skin: a gelled base in case of combination or oily skin, a creamy texture if it is dehydrated, or even oil-based if it is very dry.
