Product Description
A skin polishing scrub with Corn Cob Meal gently removes dulling surface debris that leaves skin with a smooth and healthy complexion. Botanical extracts of Mallow, Ivy and Aloe Vera soothe and help prevent over-stimulation of the skin. Cucumber helps keep skin hydrated and refreshed.
Voted by Instyle as the best facial scrub, it also scored a favourable 4.0 at Makeupalley and 7.9 at Total Beauty.
However, contrary to those users, I actually prefer Daily Microfoliant much more than this.
I have sensitive skin so I found the grains to be rough and abrasive against my delicate skin. I can actually felt that I am scrubbing the face like the floor. The colour is almost like the Gentle Cream Exfoliant, light brown in colour. Slightly creamy with granules, I found the particles to be larger than what I would like.
I prefer to use something gentler on my sensitive skin and Daily Microfoliant did a great job in that.
At times, after using Skin Prep Scrub, my face feels almost raw, dry and tight though it did not turn red. My skin desperately needs a hydrating mask after each scrub. Even though skin does feel slightly softer and smoother, but I still felt that Daily Microfoliant did a better job.
Overall, I would think that this product may be more suitable for those with oily skin or those with excess sebum production.
