Face scrubs usually have small particles or beads
which help remove the old dead skin cells and this process is known as
exfoliation. We can use a face scrub weekly twice, it is not recommended to use
face scrubs daily as its tiny bead like particles may produce harsh effects on
our skin. Let us list some of the benefits of scrubbing:-
*The new skin cells add a glow on our skin.
*Removes acne scars.
*Inhibits ingrown hair.
*Helps remove white heads and black heads.
