How to Use

Scoop a generous amount of the scrub.

Massage over the body in circular motions, focusing on areas like elbows, knees, and other rough patches.
-
Rinse thoroughly.
-
Use 2‑3 times a week for glowing skin or as often as tolerated depending on skin sensitivity. (Some listings imply regular use though not necessarily daily)
Precautions / Things to Know
-
If you have sensitive skin or are prone to irritation, test on a small patch first.
-
Avoid using on broken / irritated skin.
-
Use moisturizer after exfoliating, since exfoliation removes dead skin and may leave skin more susceptible to dryness.
-
Be mindful of fragrance — floral scents can cause irritation in some skin types.
FAQs
What skin type is this scrub suitable for?
It’s suitable for most skin types, especially normal to oily skin. It provides gentle exfoliation and hydration. However, if you have very sensitive or dry skin, patch testing is recommended due to the fragrance and exfoliating particles.
How often should I use this scrub?
For best results, use 2 to 3 times per week. Overuse may cause dryness or irritation, especially on sensitive skin. Always follow up with a body moisturizer to lock in hydration.
Does it help with rough or bumpy skin (like on arms or legs)?
Yes, the gentle exfoliating grains help to remove dead skin cells and smooth out rough patches, including keratosis pilaris (KP) or bumps on arms and thighs when used consistently.
Will it dry out my skin after use?
No, unlike harsh scrubs, this Dove scrub contains moisturizing ingredients (like NutriumMoisture™) to help keep skin feeling soft and nourished even after exfoliation.
