Review on Indulge in Smoothness: Mario Badescu Coconut Body Scrub by Paula Jones

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Body Scrub (Pumice based) Strong Coconut Scent (by scent) Made in USA

Mario Badescu Coconut Body Scrub in gloss white with a light gel texture. It contains pumice stone, which provides physical exfoliation. Pumice and other physical exfoliating ingredients are somewhat controversial, as one opinion holds that they leave microcracks on the skin's surface and weaken the skin's barrier, although skin appears smoother and fresher after their application. . Chemical peels (AHA, PHA) are almost universally favored by skin care professionals. The scrub has a strong coconut scent. Coconut lovers might like the smell, but the scent can irritate sensitive skin, but since it's meant to be rinsed off, that's not a potential problem. It also contains shea butter, which is a good emollient but can clog pores and worsen acne. It's made in the USA and is animal, paraben and vegan free. Complete Ingredients: Aqua (Water, Eau), Butyrospermum Parkii. Butter (Shea), Triglycerides C10-18, Glycerin, Neopentyl Glycol Diheptanoate, Cetearyl Olivate, Dicaprylyl Carbonate, Isopropyl Myristate, Sodium Hydroxyethyl Acrylate/Acryloyldimethyltaurate Copolymer, Fragrance (Fragrance), Sorbitanolinate, Isododecane, Phenoxyethanol, Tocopheryl Acetate, Argania Spinosa Kernel Oil, Mangifera Indica Seed Oil (Mango ), Prunus Armeniaca (Apricot) Seed Oil, Rosa Canina Seed, Sclerocarya Birrea Seed Oil, Chlorphenesin, Caprylyl Glycol.
