The ingredients in a facial scrub serve a purpose. Unfortunately, many store-bought scrubs have beneficial properties but also include chemicals to extend shelf-life. It seems rather backwards to use chemicals on a complexion that requires cleansing and TLC. Perhaps this is why so many people turn to DIY face scrubs with all-natural products.
