After a long day of wearing makeup and strolling city streets, we know there’s nothing better than getting home and immediately reaching for your face scrub at the end of the day. It’s the perfect solution to slough away dead surface skin cells and icky residue and to reveal beautiful glowing skin. On the other hand, using a face scrub that is too aggressive can be counterproductive and lead to skin that is dry, irritated and in pain from the harsh granules. Ouch. To avoid this altogether, we recommend reaching for a gentler formula, like one of the six listed here. La Roche-Posay Ultra-Fine Face ScrubFormulated with Thermal Spring Water, the La Roche-Posay Ultra-Fine scrub is gentle enough for sensitive skin, helping to smooth and purify skin.
