Favorite facial scrub/exfoliator?

JudyL — Wed, 15 Dec 2021 18:52:29 GMT

If you use a facial scrub/exfoliator, which one is your favorite? Can be drugstore or higher end. Have normal to dry skin so don't need one for oily or acne prone skin. Thanks!

Vasanti Brighten Up! Enzymatic Face Rejuvenater. I've repurchased multiple times. Right now, it's at a heck of a deal on Costco dot com. 7.05 oz./$24.99, thru Dec. 17th. It's a big tube so it lasts quite awhile.

Another one that I like is Eminence Organics Strawberry Rhubarb Dermafoliant. It's a powder that you mix in your palm with a little water, and apply. It's pricey, too, but it lasts a good while. The Amazon price is better than the website price.

I like Clinique products. I'm using their exfoliating scrub right now. Also their face wash and moisturizing gel. I think I got them from HSN.

Clinique 7 Day Scrub is very good. Also Origins Modern Friction. Tatcha is a good one

Paula's Choice 2% BHA Liquid Exfoliant this time of year and in warmer weather I like Tatcha Rice Powder. I don't use exfoliants on a daily though. Both are good.

Dermalogica

My favorite is Dermalogica Daily Superfoliant. It's a fine powder that you add a little water to to make it into a paste and then massage into your skin. It lasts a long time and always does a great job for me.

I'm using Accure Brightening Facial Scrub. I buy at Ulta, very reasonable. I mix it with a small amount of cleanser in the morning, but you can use it by itself. Its quite gritty, but I like that, knowing it's thoroughly exfoliating.

I'm using the Tatcha rice enzyme powder and it works for me. I have also used the Clinique exfoliating scrub.

Thanks everyone for all your suggestions. Have a nice list now to look into and see which one I want to try first.

I recently went back to Philosophy's Microdelivery facial wash and really enjoying it. It's a daily facial scrub that leaves my skin really soft.

@San Antonio Gal Ohhh! Will have to add that Philosophy Microdelivery wash to the list. Used to use that and liked it. Hmmm.....

@JudyL

Without a doubt...WEN! It is truly the most gentle physical exfoliator I have ever used and takes a very small amount. I exfoliate from forehead to décolletage daily.

I use 'St Ives Gentle Apricot Facial Scrub' 3 or 4 times a week, have used the high end stuff but always seem to go back to St Ives, leaves my skin baby soft.

The only one I can tolerate is Clinique 7 day scrub. I don't use it every day but occasionally.

@JudyL I buy microdermabrasion crystals from Amazon (I buy the very fine #120 grit) & then I mix it with a bit of mother of pearl powder.

I wet my hands & face, add some powder, gently massage my skin with it & my skin feels smooth & soft. I use this every few days & my skin loves it.

My sister mixes this right into her face cleanser & uses it that way.

It's very inexpensive & works so well.

I always like to see everyone's recommendations. Nice info to get and always appreciate the opinions, especially when someone takes the time to tell us why they like a product. Thanks to everyone. I am currently alternating between several so not with a favorite right now.

I have tried several different brands...some irrated - some didn't.....but my go-to comes from my kitchen.....Sugar. I dampen my face and pour a dime-size amount of sugar into the palm of my hand then start lightly rubbing in circular motions all over my face, adding a few drops of water as needed....then rinse off and put on a moisturizer.....my face is as smooth a a baby's bottom.....lol.....

I have fair and senstivie skin but the two that I use are:

Dr.Denese microdermabrasive facial wash (very gentle on your skin but works)

Lancer Polish --either sensitive or normal ( a bit more of a scrub but not abrasive)

I just ordered the Lancer a few months ago to try and now alternate between the two just to use up the tube. Both work well and quick. Both remove sunscreen, makeup or nothing extra on skin. There isn't any drying or tightness when you rinse either product off. You only need a little bit to wash your entire face and neck. One tube lasts for months.

Hope one of them work for you.
