If you have oily skin, you know how tricky it can be to keep that fresh, clean look without making your face feel greasy or dry. The right face scrub can help you balance oil production, unclog pores, and keep your skin smooth — but only if you use it the right way.
1. Start with a Clean Face
Always begin by washing your face with a gentle cleanser to remove surface dirt and excess oil. This helps the scrub work directly on your skin instead of mixing with grime.
2. Use a Small Amount of Scrub
You don’t need much — a pea-sized amount is enough. Take a small portion of your natural face scrub (like our Green Tea Mask Stick or Turmeric Polish) and apply it evenly on your damp face.
3. Massage Gently
Use your fingertips to massage in small circular motions. Focus on your T-zone (forehead, nose, and chin), where oil buildup is common. Avoid scrubbing too hard; gentle motion helps exfoliate without damaging your skin barrier.
4. Rinse Thoroughly
Rinse off with lukewarm water. Hot water can strip natural oils, causing your skin to produce even more oil. Pat your face dry with a clean towel.
5. Moisturize Immediately
Even oily skin needs moisture. Use a lightweight, oil-free moisturizer to keep your skin hydrated and balanced after exfoliating.
6. Exfoliate 2–3 Times a Week
Over-exfoliating can irritate oily skin and lead to breakouts. Stick to 2–3 times a week for the best results.
Why Natural Scrubs Work Best
Natural scrubs made with ingredients like turmeric, green tea, and coffee gently exfoliate while providing antioxidants that help calm and protect oily skin. They leave your face feeling clean, refreshed, and glowing — not stripped or tight.
Final Tip:
Consistency matters more than intensity. Treat your skin with care, and it’ll reward you with a smooth, oil-balanced glow.
