A natually whitening scrub is a skincare exfoliant that uses gentle, naturally derived ingredients to slough away dead skin cells, help fade hyperpigmentation, and reveal a brighter, more even complexion. Typical ingredients include:
-
Exfoliants like oatmeal, almond powder, sugar, or fine seeds to gently buff away dull, pigmented layers.
-
Brightening botanicals such as turmeric, orange peel, licorice, papaya, or niacinamide, known for their antioxidant and melanin-inhibiting properties.
-
Soothing moisturizers like coconut oil, yogurt (rich in lactic acid), honey, or aloe, which cool and hydrate the skin while reinforcing the skin barrier.
