Every 28 days or so, dead skin cells build up on the surface and can leave skin rough, dull or uneven in texture. That's where the\u00a0<strong>body scrub<\/strong>A ally that, when used correctly, improves softness, radiance and enhances the effectiveness of any treatment you apply afterwards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is a body scrub for?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The&nbsp;<strong>body scrub<\/strong>&nbsp;removes dead cells from the surface layer of the skin, stimulates microcirculation and promotes cell renewal. The main benefits are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Smoother and more uniform texture.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Brighter, fresher skin.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Creams and oils are more effective and penetrate better.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Prevention of ingrown hairs and small imperfections.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Fun fact: in dermatological studies, regular exfoliation has been shown to improve skin elasticity and reduce transepidermal water loss, which means skin retains moisture better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Types of body scrubs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In modern cosmetics, there are two main types:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Physical exfoliators<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>They use solid particles (sugar, salt, pumice, seeds) that remove dead skin cells by friction. They are the most sensorial and leave the skin immediately polished.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity is-style-dots\"\/>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Chemical exfoliants<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Formulated with alpha hydroxy acids (AHA) or beta hydroxy acids (BHA), they dissolve the bonds between dead cells without the need for friction. Ideal for sensitive skin or skin prone to irritation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What is interesting is that many products today combine both systems, achieving a more complete and respectful exfoliation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity is-style-dots\"\/>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to use a body scrub correctly<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"1\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Apply to damp skin<\/strong>&nbsp;(ideally in the shower, with lukewarm water).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Massage in a circular motion<\/strong>&nbsp;from bottom to top, without over-tightening.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Concentrate on rough areas<\/strong>&nbsp;(elbows, knees, heels), but don't forget arms, legs and back.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Rinse with plenty of water<\/strong>&nbsp;and gently towel dry.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Moisturise afterwards<\/strong>after exfoliation, the skin absorbs the active ingredients of oils and creams better.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>Recommended frequency: 1-2 times per week, depending on skin type.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The best body scrubs of 2025<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Geranium Leaf Body Scrub - Aesop<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>With ground pumice and micronised bamboo, it removes impurities with precision.
