Facial Scrub Products

So now I'm going to show you some of the most commonly used facial scrubs. These can be used at home or during facial treatments. This one it's a Jehovah bead based. And if you could see it looks almost like a cleanser, but actually if you look very closely and if you feel, there are little micro beads and this is actually going to help slough off dead surface skin. Which is traditionally usually the top surface layer anyway. But by using a product like this every couple of days you're really brightening the skin's complexion and it also helps break a build up of dirt and oil as well as blackheads. So if someone, you know, finds that they have a lot blackheads or build up around their nose area, using a product like this every couple of days after you cleanse is really going to help break up the oils and you'll probably over time see less and less of a build up. Another scrub that's similar to this would be a marble, grounded marble base scrub. And again it's a rounded sphere. Most fruit scrubs are a little bit too abrasive on the skin and they kind of abrate or leave tiny abrasions on the skin. So I tend to stay away from any fruit scrubs, because the shell is a little too rough on the skin. But if you're using a Jehovah bead or a marble bead it's rounded. And the product is doing the job of exfoliating without aggressively, you know, affecting the skin, making it irritated or you know etcetera. Finally a third more commonly used scrub is called a Gammage. And a Gammage actually goes on wet at first and it takes a few minutes to dry. But as it dries you use your finger tips to gently exfoliate the product. And as it is removed it kind of feels like dry eraser shavings to the client. But again that is more towards like a dehydrated skin type. Someone who is super dry who just really needs that top layer just removed.
