Mario Badescu Botanical Exfoliating Scrub

Using the Mario Badescu Botanical Exfoliating Scrub is simple and rewarding for your skin. Begin by wetting your face with warm water to prepare your skin for exfoliation. Take a small amount of the scrub and gently massage it onto your face in circular motions, focusing on areas that may feel rough or appear dull. Be careful not to apply too much pressure, as this can irritate your skin. After about 1-2 minutes of gentle scrubbing, rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water to remove all traces of the product. For best results, use this exfoliating scrub 2-3 times a week, followed by your favourite moisturiser to lock in hydration. Enjoy the refreshed, smooth feeling of your skin after each use, and watch as your complexion transforms into a brighter, healthier version of itself!

Q: What is the Mario Badescu Botanical Exfoliating Scrub, and how does it work?

A: The Botanical Exfoliating Scrub is a gentle yet effective facial exfoliator that uses finely ground Ecuadorian ivory palm seeds to buff away dead skin and impurities. Combined with nourishing botanicals like green tea, aloe, and coconut extract, this scrub leaves the skin smooth, refreshed, and radiant. It’s a great option for those looking to improve texture and get an instant glow without harsh abrasives.


Q: How often should you use the Botanical Exfoliating Scrub?**

A: For most skin types, 2-3 times a week is perfect! It’s gentle enough for regular use, but you don’t need to exfoliate daily, especially if you have sensitive skin. Overdoing it could lead to irritation, so a few times a week is enough to keep your skin looking fresh and smooth.


Q: Is this scrub suitable for sensitive skin?

A: Yes, it’s formulated to be gentle and is generally well-tolerated by sensitive skin types. However, if you have particularly sensitive or reactive skin, it’s always wise to patch-test first. Start by using it just once a week and gradually increase if your skin responds well. The scrub’s botanical blend makes it refreshing without being too intense, offering a gentle exfoliation that feels soothing, not harsh.
