What it is:A gentle double-action exfoliant for
all skin types.What it is formulated to do: Exfoliation
is key to healthy, glowing skin. This dual-powered scrub
offers deep detoxification without damaging the delicate
facial skin. The enzymatic exfoliants
"dissolve" expired skin cells while gently
freeing them from the skin's surface to be washed
away by the mechanical exfoliants. Raw, ground-up adzuki
bean has been used in skin preparations for centuries in
Japan. It provides gentle, manual exfoliation while its
astringent properties clarify and tighten the pores.
Both cranberry seed and geranium oil offer
skin-brightening attributes, which assists with reducing
hyper-pigmentation and post-inflammatory acne. The
food-based ingredients in this scrub nourish the skin
with antioxidants that scavenge free-radicals and
optimize cellular function, resulting in more radiant
skin and heightened new cell production.What it is
formulated WITHOUT:- Parabens- Sulfates- Synthetic
Fragrances- Synthetic Dyes- Petrochemicals- Phthalates-
GMOs- TriclosanWhat else you need to know:Every day skin
cells are born on the lowest layers of the epidermis.
They spend their life cycle rising through the dermal
layers, providing nutrients, collagen, and physical
support to our largest organ. On their final day, they
expire on the outermost layer. Exfoliation keeps the
surface layer fresh and able to release toxins and
absorb necessary nutrients. Exfoliation also reduces the
appearance of fine lines and wrinkles through the
removal of cellular debris on the skin's surface.
I don't need to exfoliate often and keep this in the shower to use a couple times a week. The scent is wonderful. I love that it is all natural and not at all harsh like other exfoliants tend to be. This is perfect for my sensitive skin.
I really wanted to like this product, however it just wasn't meant for me. It was not deep cleansing enough and made me break out. Had to return this one. I am sticking to the Ole Henrickson products from now on. I have been using his face scrubs and absolutely love them.
This exfoliant is the best one on the market, by far. I have really dry and flaky skin, and this scrub buffs out the gross stuff, leaving behind fresh, gorgeous skin. Never irritating, I can use this stuff daily with no problem. Works best in combination with the Pangea cleanser and followed up by the rose facial cream. Well done, Pangea.
I have never tried Pangea products, but I'm all for natural - so I gave it a shot. I love how this makes my skin feel after the fact. I believe it truly does what it claims to....exfoliates and leaves skin glowing. However, it was just a bit *too* raw and natural for my liking. The scent of the cranberry was a little overpowering and I felt as if I was rubbing actual fruit on my face. The consistency is not my favorite, either.
I'll continue to use it until the bottle is empty - it does work well. But I'll most likely try a different exfoliant next time around.
I got this in the mail yesterday and used it last night after removing all my makeup and using a cleanser to wash my face. Afterwards, I used the Egyptian Facial Scrub and wow! My face was super soft and smelled so good afterwards. Plus the next morning my face looked like it was glowing. I applied my makeup and it just went on smoother than usual. The only thing I don't like is, after I washed it off, i felt my hands had a greasy residue to it but thats ok. As long as my face feels and looks good is all that matters! Overall, very nice product.
Quick Take: great for sensitive skin., non-abrasive.
This is one of my staple products that I use almost daily. It is great for daily use as it is not harsh or abrasive. I have very sensitive skin but this scrub does not leave my face red or dry like most other scrubs. Just a little dab goes a long way! The smell is wonderful as well!
Quick Take: gentle, natural, truthful to the description
All I have to say is "Amen!!" to all the positive reviews for this product. THIS IS THE BEST FACIAL SCRUB I HAVE EVER TRIED!! I have been using this product for about three weeks and my skin have never felt so soft and renewed. I leave it on longer than recommended and then follow it with the Tangerine Toner and then the Pomegranate/Himalayan Geranium Balancing oil and this is the magic combination for me. My old acne scars are clearing up and my skin has never felt so smooth and soft. I am sold....this organic stuff is THE STUFF to use. Bravo to Pangea...you won a customer for like...just keep making these beautiful and earth-friendly products.
Awesome product--this scrub is very gentle even on sensitive skin and has a wonderful earthy smell. Leaves skin supersoft and fresh. My new favorite scrub!
I got the scrub few months ago in my Radiance Kit from Pangea Organic's website. I was very excited to try it but kinda worried, if this was a right scrub for my skin especially after a terrible allergy i got...Anyways the next morning, i tried it along with my cleanser, couldn't be happier then ever. I felt so fresh & my skin was so soft & glowing. Im totally in love with this scrub. Its definitely worth a try. Im in love with all of Pangea's Products. Their products are the only skincare line I trust & use :]
I really love this face scrub-gentle and yet powerful exfoliation, a generous package size, and I don't have to feel guilty about dangerous plastic beads washing down the line.
I absolutely lovd this facial product. The smell was incredible - refreshing. My skin felt more clear than any other facial scrub, and it was much more gentle than others I have tried.
I love this stuff! I have used many facial scrubs and find this is by far the best at making my skin smooth but not being too rough. I love the scent, too!
I love the way the adzuki seeds gently exfoliate yet are not harsh. Blood orange is a favorite so having that in the base with the geranium had a lovely light smell. I love that my skin felt moisturized and also as if a layer of dead cells had been removed. Again, having natural organic ingredients is one of the reason I love Pangea. They've never let me down and this scrub is the best I've tried. I feel that my skin looks renewed afterward and felt hydrated not dry. Love it!
This scrub is the best! It's my favorite facial product for everyday use. It makes my skin feel smooth and my mind relax with the amazing aromatherapy it offers. I would certainly recommend this product.
I have been using this for a few weeks now in the shower a few days a week (along with a dab of the cleanser) and love how soft and healthy my skin feels! It provides the perfect amount of gentle exfoliation without that dry tight feeling afterwards that most other exfoliators cause.
I tried this scrub as a sample and have since started using Pangea's facial products. The scrub is a great at-home spa treatment that doesn't dry out the skin and leaves your face feeling fresh and smelling awesome.
I love that this is a natural and organic product. It is gentle and exfoliating without the use of harsh chemicals. Personally, I do not like the smell, but this should not deter you from trying it. I still use mine because it is good for my skin, and works great with the facial creams in PO's line. Yet if it was available in another fragrance, I would try that one too.
