What is the difference between a facial scrub and a body scrub?

Scrubs can be divided into facial scrubs and body scrubs. So why is there such a distinction?

Although they are all our skin, the skin in different parts is very different. The skin on our face is often more delicate and has a thinner stratum corneum. We need to use a facial scrub with a milder formula. In contrast, the skin on other parts of the body is relatively rough and has a thicker stratum corneum. When cleaning the body's stratum corneum, a more powerful body scrub is needed. Therefore, we need to pay attention that body scrubs cannot be used on the face, otherwise it may damage the stratum corneum on the face.

In addition, we cannot use body scrubs too frequently, which will also damage the skin barrier and may cause skin sensitivity and other problems. The scientific frequency of use is about once a week. If you feel pain after using the scrub, you need to stop using it.
