DESCRIPTION 

A creamy, conditioning scrub base that smooths, softens, and brings balance to the skin. Facial Scrub Cosmetic Base with Apricot Shells combines a rich, velvety texture with finely ground apricot seed powder for gentle, effective exfoliation. It helps lift away buildup and impurities while maintaining the skin’s natural moisture barrier, revealing a refreshed, healthy-looking glow. 

Formulated for performance, this pH-balanced base is designed to cleanse, refine, and revitalize without over-drying. The cushioned texture feels luxe on application and rinses clean, making it ideal for professional spa treatments, facial care, or everyday skin care lines. 

Perfect for customization, it can be easily enhanced with essential oils, fragrance oils, or botanical extracts (up to 0.5–1% of total formula) to create unique blends. Craft a signature facial exfoliator or a gentle body polish that pampers as it purifies.


DIRECTIONS & SUGGESTED USAGE

  • Gentle Facial Scrub: Apply a small amount of Facial Scrub Cosmetic Base with Apricot Shells to damp skin. Massage with light, circular motions for 30 to 60 seconds, avoiding the eye area. Rinse thoroughly with warm water and pat dry. Use one to three times per week depending on skin type. Follow with toner and a light facial oil or moisturizer to lock in hydration. 
  • Add a Unique Touch: To create a customized facial scrub, incorporate essential oils, fragrance oils, or botanical extracts up to 0.5–1% total. Blend slowly until uniform. Perform a stability check and a patch test before retailing.  

  • Body or Targeted Use: For areas prone to roughness such as the nose, chin, or elbows, massage in Facial Scrub Cosmetic Base with Apricot Shells gently and rinse. Reduce frequency for delicate or reactive skin to avoid over-exfoliation. 
  • Formulation Notes: We recommend all additives not exceed 1% of total volume. Exceeding this may destabilize the base and affect texture, viscosity, or absorption.
