Derma E Microdermabrasion Exfoliating Face Scrub — 2 oz, Dead Sea Salt & Hydrating Oils

DERMA E Microdermabrasion Exfoliating Face Scrub is a salt-based facial polish that buffs away dead skin to reveal a smoother, more energized complexion.

This 2 oz microdermabrasion-style scrub combines Dead Sea salt crystals with kaolin clay and a citrus oil blend to exfoliate, clarify, and nourish skin. Designed for weekly use, the formula sloughs off surface buildup while grapeseed, sweet almond and jojoba oils help condition and moisturize during the exfoliation process. The brand positions the product as clean, vegan and cruelty-free, packaged in a recyclable tube and free from common synthetic additives.

How does this scrub mimic microdermabrasion at home?

The scrub uses finely milled Dead Sea salt particles to mechanically remove dead surface skin, creating a polishing effect similar to salon microdermabrasion but gentler when used as directed. Kaolin clay helps lift impurities while the oil trio maintains hydration so skin doesn't feel stripped.

• Dead Sea salt crystals for physical exfoliation
• Kaolin clay to absorb excess oil and draw out impurities
• Grapeseed, sweet almond and jojoba oils to replenish moisture
• Citrus oil blend for a refreshed scent and softer skin texture

When and how often should I use this facial scrub?

For best results, apply the scrub to clean, wet skin up to twice a week. Gently massage for about one minute, avoiding aggressive rubbing, then rinse thoroughly and pat dry before applying your regular moisturizer or serum.

• Use on damp skin for even exfoliation
• Massage gently for ~60 seconds—do not over-exfoliate
• Rinse fully and follow with a hydrating moisturizer
• Limit to twice weekly to prevent irritation

Is this scrub suitable for sensitive or acne-prone skin?

The physical exfoliation can be effective for textured or congested skin, but those with very sensitive or actively inflamed acne should patch-test first and consult a dermatologist if unsure. The presence of oils and kaolin clay helps balance hydration and oil control, yet mechanical scrubs may still be too abrasive for reactive skin types.

• Patch test on a small area before full-face use
• Avoid use on broken, sunburned, or severely inflamed skin
• May benefit textured, dull, or mildly congested skin when used properly
• Follow with calming, fragrance-free hydration for sensitive skin
