Facial Scrubber
The most essential part of the skin care is scrubbing. Scrubbing clears the skin by removing the dead skin cell form the layer of the skin. However, if the scrubber is used on regular basis then it will damage the layer of the skin. Well this is all depend on the product that we use for the scrubbing. Most of the scrubbers are abrasive to skin. This makes them not perfect for use on daily basis. Although, it is necessary in skin care because it removes the dead skin cell from the skin and helps the healthy skin to breathe. The scrubber also helps in creating a smooth surface of the skin for applying moisturizer and foundation.
How to find a gentle Scrub?
The scrubber uses the abrasive ingredient for removing the dead skin cell from the upper layer of the skin. Sometime the label of the product does not give the clear picture about the ingredients especially the abrasive ingredient which is used in the scrub. So for a clear there are two methods for judging the gentleness of the scrubber.
First, apply the scrub on the back of the hand if it feel scratchy, then do not use on the face or any of the body parts because this may be damage the layer of the skin.
Secondly, go for your favourite brand or the bestselling product which is well formulated. The benefit of using the bestselling product is that it is well reviewed and tested by the end customer.
