Product details

Earth Science Apricot Gentle Exfoliating Facial Scrub is a soap-free, daily-use exfoliant that polishes skin with natural apricot, oat and sugar cane for a softer, clearer complexion.

Designed by Earth Science, a brand with over three decades of personal-care experience, this gentle scrub combines fruit extracts and botanical oils to remove dull surface cells while preserving moisture. The formula is pH-balanced at about 5.0, paraben-free, cruelty-free and vegan, making it suitable for everyday use on all skin types. Each pack contains three 4 oz. tubes so you can keep a tube at home, travel bag, and gym kit.

How does this scrub gently exfoliate without stripping moisture?

This scrub uses a blend of oat and finely milled apricot particles with sugar cane to slough away dead skin while moisturizing ingredients help maintain the skin barrier. The result is smoother texture without the tight, dry feel some scrubs cause.

  • Physical exfoliants: apricot and sugar cane granules for controlled polishing
  • Moisture-supporting botanicals: oat extract and apricot oil prevent overdrying
  • Soap-free base: cleans without harsh surfactants
  • pH ~5.0: formulated to respect skin’s natural acidity

When should I use this exfoliating facial scrub in my routine?

Use it as part of your cleansing step — lather with water, massage gently over wet skin, then rinse. For most skin types, daily use is appropriate if your skin tolerates it; otherwise alternate days or use 2–3 times weekly for sensitive skin.

  • Daily morning or evening cleansing when tolerated
  • Alternate-day use for reactive or very dry skin
  • Follow with toner and moisturizer to lock in hydration
  • Avoid the eye area and rinse thoroughly

What ingredients provide fragrance and skin benefits?

The formula includes citrus and lemongrass extracts for a fresh scent plus botanical oils to soften skin. These natural extracts give a pleasant aroma without heavy synthetic perfumes, while actives support pore-clearing and surface renewal.

  • Apricot oil: emollient that helps soften skin
  • Lemon, orange, grapefruit, lemongrass extracts: natural aroma and astringent-like feel
  • Oat: soothing and supportive to the skin barrier
  • No parabens; cruelty-free and vegan-certified formulation

How do I apply it safely for best results?

Dispense into the palm, add water to create a creamy foam, then gently massage over damp face or body and rinse. Avoid rubbing too vigorously; keep contact away from eyes and stop use if irritation occurs.

  • Lather with water until creamy before applying
  • Use gentle circular motions — do not scrub aggressively
  • Rinse well with warm water and pat skin dry
  • Store tubes upright and avoid contact with eyes

Who is this for: Earth Science Apricot Gentle Exfoliating Facial Scrub is tailored to people seeking a plant-forward, soap-free exfoliant that brightens texture without harsh chemicals. It works well for beginners wanting an approachable daily scrub, anyone preferring vegan and cruelty-free options, and those who appreciate a light citrus botanical scent. If you have very sensitive or compromised skin, test a small area first and adjust frequency as needed.
