FAQs

How often should I use The Body Shop Shea Body Scrub?

For most skin types, using the scrub 2-3 times a week is recommended. Adjust frequency based on your skin's sensitivity and response.

Can I use this scrub on my face?

No, this body scrub is formulated for the thicker skin on the body and is generally too abrasive for facial skin. Using it on the face may cause irritation.

What does '95% ingredients of natural origin' mean?

It means that 95% of the ingredients in the formula are derived from natural sources, processed according to natural origin standards.

How do I rinse the scrub off?

Rinse thoroughly with warm water until all scrub particles are removed from your skin.

What is the scent profile of this scrub?

The scent is described as 'nutty', derived from the shea butter and other ingredients. It is quite distinct and can be strong.

Is this product vegan?

While the product contains 95% natural-origin ingredients and Community Fair Trade shea butter, specific vegan certification should be checked on the product packaging or The Body Shop's official website, as formulations can change.

What should I do if I experience irritation?

Discontinue use immediately. If irritation persists, consult a healthcare professional. You may have sensitive skin or be using the product too frequently.

Troubleshooting

Scrub feels too rough.

Apply less pressure when massaging the scrub onto your skin. Ensure your skin is sufficiently wet before application, and consider using it less frequently if you have sensitive skin.

Skin feels dry after use.

Ensure you are thoroughly rinsing off all scrub particles and follow up immediately with a rich body moisturizer or body butter.

Product appears to be drying out.

Make sure the lid is screwed on tightly after each use. Store in a controlled environment, avoiding excessive heat or humidity.
