With the onset of monsoons, i too was showered with acne & pimples. I went back to my anti acne/pimple regime. Meanwhile i read about this scrub and was lured to find that it has organic tea tree as its main ingredient. it is The Body Shop Tea Tree Squeaky Clean Scrub from The Body Shop.
This skin-clearing facial scrub combines micro-fine exfoliants with bursting beads to help unclog pores without over-drying. Use a few times a week for skin that feels super clean and instantly smooth.
-Suitable for blemished skin
-Skin instantly feels soft, smooth and super clean
-Pores look visibly clearer and face feels purified
Price- 895 INR for 100 ml. little pricey for a scrub. I bought this from Flipkart but its available on Nykaa, The Body Shop site too. You can order it here and here.
As i said it claims to have organic ingredients, mainly tea tree oil here but it does have SLS although free of parabens/animal derivatives.
The scrub comes packed in a transparent squeezy tube with details printed on it. The scrub is green with micro fine scrub particles for smooth and gentle abrasion. it smells prominently of tea tree which stays for a while after washing the face.
I usually apply this at night to clean away dirt and mild dermal infections.
The scrub is quite mild and cleans the face properly without need of a separate face wash. it has that effervescent effect which is quite refreshing and helps drying out mild acne and pimples. I never had any stretchy or itchy feeling after using this scrub.
Being mild this will not aggravate skin troubles. But if one has cystic or adult acne like that of mine. This scrub only wont help. I noticed that it has also helped in lightening my skin blemishes giving a smooth and clear skin.
The scrub can be used daily and can surely prevent further infections. But this will not help much in black heads or white heads removal instantly. It takes time to dislodge them with regular use.
This scrub reminds me of Oriflame Tea Tree & Rosemary Facial kit which is still one of my skin care essentials. If find The Body shop Tea Tree scrub pricey you can opt for Oriflame Tea Tree & Rosemary Face Wash and Scrub Combo too.
Overall The Body Shop Tea Tree Squeaky Clean Scrub is great scrub for daily use. I would highly recommend this to people who have acne prone/oily skin.
