Homemade Facial Scrub Ingredients

Homemade facial scrub recipes make use of a number of all natural exfoliants, most of which can be found right in your kitchen.

Physical exfoliants like sea salt and nuts can be too harsh for delicate facial skin and should be used in homemade body scrub recipes instead.

With a few exceptions, exfoliating facial scrubs can be used on all skin types.

Use Caution: acne, acne rosacea, broken capillaries, sensitive skin, and thin skin

Avoid: irritated, sunburned, wind burned, and injured skin
