The Nut Body Scrub is formulated with plant‑derived particles and a mineral base, which are generally milder than acid‑based exfoliants. Still, sensitive skin may react to the mechanical action or to natural particles, so a patch test is essential. Apply a thin layer to the inner arm or behind the ear, leave it for 5–10 minutes, then rinse. If no tingling, redness, or itching appears within 24 hours, the product is likely tolerable.
Safe use tips:
- Never apply the scrub to skin that is irritated, sunburned, or freshly shaved.
- Use gentle, circular motions; avoid aggressive pressure, especially on thin or delicate areas.
- If you notice any discomfort, stop using immediately and allow the skin to calm before trying again.
Storage is also important for maintaining safety. Keep the jar in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat. Ensure the cap is sealed tightly after each use to prevent moisture ingress, which could encourage mould growth. Check the container for any changes in colour, texture, or odour before each use; discard if abnormalities appear.
By combining a careful patch test with proper storage and gentle application, most people with sensitive skin can incorporate this scrub into their routine without issues.
