It’s always a pleasure when a typically mundane skincare task is made more interesting and even more pleasurable by a new formulation. In case you’re wondering …I’m talking about facial exfoliating and the exfoliator in question is the new Jane Scrivener whipped butter polish…and let me tell you that the name really fits!
This is a lush, finely milled physical scrub, with a deliciously whipped texture & as you can see in the pictures this latte coloured scrub looks like some sort of yummy dessert topping. It feels as good as it looks – luxuriously creamy but light.
This scrub contains many of my favourite skincare ingredients, we’re talking butter-like mango butter and avocado butter which are jam-packed with essential fatty acids, then there’s the jojoba butter and oil, cardamom oil and cucumber seed oil. With these ingredients the scrub does more than just exfoliate, it works to nourish and rejuvenate the skin too.
Now there’s always a lot of discussion over whether physical exfoliators are preferable to chemical exfoliators and generally it really depends on the product in my opinion. For example, I really love finely milled physical exfoliators and powder exfoliators and this uses bamboo powder to exfoliate the skin which means it’s very fine but you can feel the graininess when you massage your face with it but it’s a soft gentle graininess, not a harsh scratchy one.
