CC Beauty Live: Strawberry Fields For Your Face

We all know the benefits of using a facial scrub: it sloughs off dead skin cells letting your beautiful fresh face show through; and also gets really deep into your pores to get rid of oil, makeup and other gross build-up. I love all the good that a facial scrub can do, but I’m tired of rubbing my face with a sandy, painful scrub!

I have been looking high and low for a facial scrub that doesn’t feel like i just rubbed sandpaper all over my face. And I finally found it.

This is another Mario Badescu product (what can I say? Mario knows what he’s doing!) that works, smells great, and is affordable! Now we can all get the perfect skin without feeling like we’re scratching off our faces in the process.

    I got a free sample of the Seaweed Cleansing Soap recently and love it. It’s a good everyday face wash to use on days you don’t use a scrub. I also have a sample of the drying cream, and the sample’s big enough that I don’t think I’ll ever have to actually buy that product. I also ended up picking up the whitening mask you recommended before; I’ve only used it once, so it’s too soon to really tell, but so far, I like it.

    (For anyone wondering, when you order it directly from Mario Badescu, they give you three free samples of your choice with any order, or you can go to “consulting” and fill out your information to get 8 samples they choose for you free of charge or even shipping costs.)

    I use the simple CVS Blackhead Scrub. Yes, it has the exfoliating “beads” in it, so it feels a little gritty, but compared to the “Apricot Scrub”, it’s pretty light, not to mention cheap, and leaves your skin feeling super smooth. I might try this, but I’m not sure how to feel about using strawberry seeds to exfoliate my skin. Does it soothe at all (sometimes I need to exfoliate after a facial wax gone wrong and it stings!)?
