There was a time when makeup products and contents were all the rave. But as glass skin and “little-to-no makeup” look took over the beauty industry, people started focusing on the power of skincare. One of the steps skincare enthusiasts swear upon, which beginners should also consider adding to their skincare regime is Exfoliation.
Exfoliation is beneficial for removing dead skin cells to brighten the texture and appearance of the skin; aid in the absorption of other skincare products by unclogging pores; and improve skin’s elasticity, especially since not every dead skin cells shed from the skin’s surface as they should be.
The most prominent way to exfoliate is by using cleansing scrubs. There are various kinds of cleansing (body) scrubs with different ingredients that all hold a promise of leaving the skin with a brighter and smoother complexion. One of the best body scrub ingredients out in the market is the popular Himalayan Salt Scrub.
Renude’s Bare Himalayan Salt Body Scrub is a locally made body scrub composed of high-quality, organic ingredients which definitely rank the same, or even beyond, its international competitors. As for Bare’s primary ingredient, the Himalayan Salt used is of the top-tier standard
known to be sourced from the Salt Range Mountain of the Himalayas in Pakistan. Himalayan Salt, in general, is a pure mineral claimed to bring heaps of skincare benefits as it is less processed than the usual table salt. With more contained minerals, the Himalayan Salt effectively exfoliates and detoxifies the skin – restoring its radiant glow while hydrating it skin-deep. Bare Body Scrub assures the following effects when used as part of one’s skincare treatment:
- Minimizes skin concerns, such as Cellulite and skin discoloration, by helping the skin achieve a smoother and tighter appearance.
- Balances oil production that can help reduce acne and acne marks as it removes dead skin cells and promote moisture to penetrate the skin.
- Slows down the skin’s aging process by encouraging Collagen production. This can lessen wrinkles and moisturize the skin since Himalayan Salt creates a protective skin barrier, against skin dehydration, due to its high mineral content – giving oneself a youthful complexion.
- Discourage the existence of ingrown hair as it assists in freeing trapped hair underneath the skin’s surface. This minimizes skin bumps caused by hair removal methods done (for instance, shaving, plucking, and other removal process done usually at home or by non-professionals).

Bare Body Scrub also contains the ingredient of Butyrospermum Parkii or commonly known as Shea Butter. Similar to the potential of Himalayan Salt, Shea Butter holds several wonders which give justification for its claim as a superfood for the skin. One of the reasons why Shea Butter is great for the skin is because of its rich content of Vitamin E - a powerful antioxidant and anti-inflammatory agent in protecting the skin from Ultraviolet (UV) exposure. It is also an exceptional emulsifier that can enhance the absorption capabilities of the skin and not waste the benefits of other skincare products used. Similar to the Himalayan Salt, Shea Butter is a great powerhouse for Collagen production and a source for defense from skin aging and dehydration.
Despite its abundance of skincare benefits, Bare Body Scrub is considered mild relative to other body scrubs. It is perfect for skincare beginners who want to try and include exfoliation in their skincare routine. Bare Body Scrub is not harsh to the skin and does not strip the skin’s natural moisture barrier wherein it is safe to use daily. However, exfoliating with Bare Body Scrub once or twice a week is enough to improve skin’s health and texture, specifically for those who suffer from dry and dull skin.
Thus, Bare Body Scrub certainly lives up to its goal on being one of the best skin exfoliators in the Philippine market, while maintaining a reasonable price so that every skincare enthusiast
can start with their exfoliation journey and achieve the skin of their dreams.
