What's is the ideal face or body scrub?
People mix abrasives made from vital plant parts with oils, essential oils and fragrance, creams and shower foams to create herbal face or body scrubs composed of natural ingredients such as herbs, leaves, fruits, barks, berries, seeds, beans and flowers. These herbs exfoliate the skin, removing dead skin cells and moisturizing it, making it smooth and soft. After exfoliation, people shower and apply body lotion.
Chemicals in Scrubs
The main exfoliating agents in body scrubs, such as microplastics and plastic beads, harm not only the body but also the environment. These petroleum-derived plastics release toxins when they break down and not only end up on beaches and into the sea. They severely affect the marine life in the region. Furthermore, land animals and plants absorb hazardous toxins such as DDT and polychlorinated biphenyls from their environment. These hazardous toxins contaminate both the soil and water.
Disadvantages of Herbal Scrubs
Some exfoliations can irritate the skin, thus requiring a shower after application. Many scrubs containing numerous chemicals can also irritate the skin. Traditional herbal body scrubs, however, do not contain any harmful chemicals. Their weak smell lacks popularity and a shower is needed after use since there is no soap included.
Scrubs must have certain quality characteristics, such as exfoliant content, action time, fragrance, duration of aromatic effect, vitamins, soap content, skin firming agents, emollient content, exfoliating texture, price, whitening agents, package portability, herbal content and irritant effect.
Make fragrance of herbal scrubs pleasant, unique, invigorating and long lasting to not irritate skin. Have scents last from 1 to 3 hours. Preferably have Vitamin concentration at 10%. Keep Soap content under 30%, skin tightening agents under 10%, skin softening agents under 30% and skin whitening agents under 5%; requiring 100% natural or herbal ingredients or 90% herbal ingredients and 10% preservatives.
Organisms can multiply quickly and exhibit various activities such as decomposition and fermentation. This is due to natural ingredients containing lots of nutrients and water. It results in herbal products having a very short shelf life and causing unpleasant odors.
Adding value-added ingredients such as whitening agents, skin vitamins, skin firming agents and emollients, body scrubs provide a variety of functions and effects. Depending on the formulation of their active ingredient, these ingredients cater to different purposes. Companies sell dozens of variations of body scrubs to meet different customers' needs. For instance, teenagers prefer fresh and sweet scents whereas older people prefer soothing and gentle scents. Moreover, existing products offer a wide variety of scents, including fruity and floral.
Companies use synthetic chemical ingredients in body scrubs because they are cheaper than natural products. They have a longer shelf life which makes them more profitable. However, many of the herbal body scrubs marketed have not been as popular with younger customers due to their scent, shorter shelf life, and general inconvenience when compared to products with synthetic chemical ingredients.
The main function of all existing body scrubs is to exfoliate dead skin cells. However, using plant-based body scrubs has some disadvantages. Bathing again is necessary after using the scrub which makes its use inconvenient. Conventional body scrubs require a lot of time to use. Scrub is mixed with water or oil, apply it to the skin, wait until it is half dry, massage it until the residue hardens and bathe again. Exfoliating the skin too often can wear down or irritate it.
If the wrong amount of water or oil is added, the mixture can become muddy or too thick. This can also affect the quality of the scrub. The stretching and waiting until it is half dry is tedious and time consuming. Bathing is required, which takes even more time. Because of these reasons, synthetic chemical body scrubs are more popular than plant-based body scrubs.
Enzymatic scrubs remove the top layer of the skin while containing active ingredients for better skin regeneration and specific acne treatment. Peels that contain more emollients and vitamins enable the presence of active ingredients for better skin regeneration. Peels also contain active ingredients that actively detect spots and scars, revive them to fade and match the surrounding healthy skin.
