Questions
Questions about our scrubs
How often should I exfoliate?
Once a week is enough for most skin. Twice a week if your skin is oily or you live in a polluted city; once every ten days if your skin is dry or sensitive. More than that and you risk damaging the barrier, which shows up as redness, tightness or that uncomfortable squeaky-clean feeling that means too much.Body scrub on the face - safe?
It depends on the scrub. The frankincense-and-rose scrub is fine-grained enough for facial use and is sold with that intent. The vanilla and lavender body scrubs are coarser - using them on the face will leave the skin red and irritated. The charcoal-rose face-and-body scrub spans both. Read the label, and when in doubt apply with very light pressure.Mechanical scrub or chemical exfoliant?
Different jobs. A mechanical scrub like ours lifts surface debris with fine mineral or botanical particles and gives the immediate smooth feel. A chemical exfoliant (glycolic, salicylic, lactic acid) dissolves the bonds between dead cells and works at a slightly deeper level. Mechanical is gentler and more controllable; chemical works on textured skin where a scrub cannot reach. Many routines use both, on different days.Will the scalp scrub work on dandruff?
It will help mechanical buildup - the kind that comes from styling products, hard water and sebum. If your scalp issue is medical dandruff (Malassezia-driven, with persistent flake and itch), a scrub is not enough on its own; you need an antifungal shampoo from a pharmacy. Combine the two if a dermatologist has confirmed the diagnosis.Apply before or after shampoo?
Before, on a wet scalp - massage in, leave for two minutes, rinse, then shampoo as normal. The same logic applies to body scrubs: in the shower, exfoliate first on damp skin, then cleanse with soap or shower gel. This way the cleanser washes away the lifted debris rather than the other way round.
