Exfoliating Scrub
Product Catalog > Black Magic > Exfoliating Scrub

The same Black Magic cream cleanser you know and love, now with the added benefit of bamboo extract to exfoliate your skin while you cleanse! It doesn't feel like much while you're using it, because the powder is very fine, but believe me, once you've rinsed it off you will feel the difference (vs the non-scrubby version)!! Start with a small amount and add more as needed, but a little goes a long way with this scrub.

It's absolutely LOADED with ingredients traditionally used for toning, healing, and clarifying the skin: Tea Tree oil, Peppermint Essential Oil, Grapefruit Essential Oil, Lemongrass Essential Oil, Rosemary Essential Oil, Vitamin E, Glycerin, French Green Clay, Rice Bran Oil, Apricot Kernel oil, and Activated Charcoal. In addition, the soap is made after I infuse the rice bran and apricot kernel oils (and then filter them) with a heaping handful of healing Calendula petals, long known for its skin-loving qualities.

These are simply examples of what these ingredients are traditionally used for and believed to do for your skin; I'm not making any claims here, other than that my soap will clean your face, or whichever body parts you choose to wash with it. Technically, I can't, unless I have this soap lab tested for all of those properties, and I'm just not in a position to do that. I can tell you, however, that I use various products from the "black magic" line on my face twice a day and it works great. Not too oily, not too drying, it leave my skin feeling clean and refreshed. I've been using this in favor of my usual bar version, though I find I can go back and forth between the two without my face freaking out.There have been no colorants added to this soap; everything I've added to it adds up to create the grey coloration of it. Additionally, I have left out any fragrancing, so this cleanser smells very medicinal- not unpleasant, but it's not a bouquet of flowers type scent, either. Think, herbal or apothecary and you'll have a good idea of what to expect- the lemongrass oil really helps to tone down the typically medicinal scent of the tea tree oil. The lather is a bit on the thin side, but you don't really need bubbles to get clean. A few times a week I like to spread this on my face and let it sit for a minute or two before rinsing, it acts as a light facial mask! This stuff is absolutely wonderful as a facial soap, but can be used on the rest of the body as well- Id advise you to keep it away from the, well, private areas, to avoid irritation- peppermint oil can cause tingling and tea tree oil can cause burning and you don't really want to mix those 2 sensations together on sensitive areas.


As with all of my soapy stuff, test first on a small area and discontinue use if irritation occurs. Keep out of eyes and mucous membranes. Don't eat it, it's soap and is for external use only. This product contains LOTS of essential oils and might cause a reaction in persons sensitive to them (pregnant, on medications, weakened immune systems, etc), so please don't buy it if you fall into this category or think you may or even if you're not sure because I don't want to be responsible for you getting hurt :(
