Face Exfoliation with an Oil Based Scrub?

WHY USE AN OIL-BASED EXFOLIATING FACE SCRUB?

Using oil to remove oil? Seems crazy, right? Not so. Because like dissolves like, oil cleansers (oil scrubs included) can actually be a effective addition to your skincare routine. They have an uncanny ability to remove excess oil — all while being gentle on skin. So, while adding an oil scrub to your skincare routine might seem counterintuitive at first, but we assure you it’s quite the opposite. Here are just a few of the reasons why:

1. They remove makeup SO much easier. You already know about oil cleansers: magical face washes specially formulated to melt makeup oh-so-effortlessly while feeding skin with the nourishing goodness of a beauty oil. Now imagine exactly that, except with the added exfoliating powers of a face scrub. Pretty sweet, right?

2. They restore moisture AND cleanse skin. Traditional scrubs simply buff away dirt, oil, and dead skin, and you typically have to apply a moisturizer afterwards, especially if you have dry skin. Oil scrubs can give you that same deep clean and restore any lost moisture in your skin. If you have dry or sensitive skin, consider these oil-based exfoliating face scrubs as the ultimate gentle exfoliation solution for a thirsty face!

3. There’s an oil scrub out there for everyone. Different oils work best for different skins, to be sure to test a few when trying to find your favorite. As with most other cleansers, some oil cleanser will work better with your skin than others. If you’re worried about breakouts, opt for formulas made with lighter oils like Argan Oil, Prickly Pear Seed Oil , Jojoba Oil , Grapeseed oil, which are more likely to work with most skin types.

Now that you know all about the benefits of using oil scrubs, we would like to introduce the prickly pear seed Oil scrub which is best for your skin. Our scrubs are made with 100% pure Prickly Pear Seed Oil , Sweet Almond Oil and Argan Oil so they’ll cleanse and nourish with most skin types without risk of clogging pores (the serious skincare word for this is “non-comedogenic”).
