How to use: Face & Body Scrub with Volcanic Sand | 170 ml
A 2-in-1 scrub that helps remove dead cells and leaves skin soft, renewed and more radiant, on face and body. The routine is simple, but the details (damp skin, gentle massage, hydrating straight afterwards) make all the difference.
Who it’s for
- Skin with uneven texture or a dull look
- Skin with light post-acne marks, once the acne is under control
- Anyone wanting to prep skin before other treatments
- Anyone wanting to smooth elbows, knees, feet and rough areas of the body
When to use it
In your routine, after cleansing and before toning and moisturising. Use 1-2 times a week on the face (once if your skin is very sensitive) and 2-3 times a week on the body.
How to apply it, step by step
- Cleanse your face first with the Cleansing Foam and leave your skin wet.
- Apply a generous amount of scrub to damp skin, never dry.
- Massage with gentle circular movements for 1-2 minutes, without pressing hard.
- On the face, focus on areas with uneven texture, such as the T-zone and chin. On the body, concentrate on elbows, knees, feet and the backs of the arms.
- Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water.
- Hydrate straight away: on the face, toner, serum and cream; on the body, a body cream.
Get the most out of it
- Water acts as a buffer: it spreads the exfoliation evenly and helps prevent micro-lesions.
- After exfoliating, skin is more permeable: apply your serum to still-damp skin to make the most of the hydration.
- You can use it on your lips, very gently, to prep them before balm.
Avoid
- Applying it to dry skin.
- Combining it on the same day with retinol, AHA/BHA or vitamin C, as this can compromise the skin barrier.
- Using it on active acne with inflamed lesions, or skipping moisturiser and sunscreen after exfoliating.
Pairs well with
- Hydrating Serum | 30 ml — Apply it straight after the scrub, on still-damp skin, to make the most of the moment when skin is most permeable.
- Body Cream 5% Urea + 2% Panthenol | 280 ml — For the body: after exfoliating elbows, knees and feet, this cream helps keep skin hydrated and comfortable.
- Tinted Mineral Face Sunscreen SPF 50 | 12 g — Daily SPF is a must in your routine, especially after exfoliating.
FAQs
How often can I use it?
On the face, 1-2 times a week (once for very sensitive skin). On the body, 2-3 times a week.
Can I use it on the same day as other actives?
Not in the same step. Avoid retinol, AHA/BHA or vitamin C on the day you exfoliate. If you want complementary chemical exfoliation, alternate on different days.
Is it suitable for acne-prone skin?
With active acne and inflamed lesions, avoid mechanical exfoliation. With controlled acne and post-inflammatory marks, it helps renew and brighten.
