What should I avoid using with this scrub to prevent adverse reactions?

The scrub’s mechanical exfoliation works best when not combined with chemical exfoliants or aggressive treatments. Avoid using products containing alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs), beta hydroxy acids (BHAs), or retinoids on the same day, as these can over-dry or irritate the skin. Similarly, vigorous dry brushing or using a loofah aggressively may cause micro-tears, increasing sensitivity to the scrub’s particles. If you use a body oil or cream afterward, wait 10-15 minutes to allow the scrub to fully exfoliate before applying moisturizer. This ensures the skin absorbs the hydrating products more effectively. Also, skip combining with self-tanners or bronzers immediately after use, as the scrub may alter their application or longevity.

  • Do not use with products containing salicylic acid or glycolic acid within 24 hours.
  • Avoid retinoids (like retinol) on the same day to prevent over-exfoliation.
  • Skip using the scrub on areas where you’ve applied oils or butters, as this may trap particles against the skin.

If you’re unsure about product compatibility, wait 24-48 hours after using the scrub before introducing new items to your routine.
