A face scrub is a treatment used to exfoliate the skin. It contains a physical abrasive, such as powdered fruit seeds or crushed shells, to buff away dead skin cells and promote a healthy-looking glow. When you apply a face scrub, the particles rub against your skin and remove all the dirt from your skin pores.

As we are occupied with so many mundane daily tasks, we may not always have enough time to take care of our skin. And, even if we do, we usually don’t go beyond the trio of face wash, moisturizers, and sunscreens. But, if we look forward to a good skincare routine, scrubbing or exfoliating regularly should be on our to-do list. A healthy skincare routine consists of several steps like cleansing, scrubbing, toning, and moisturizing. Using a face scrub is great for your skin. A face scrub benefits the skin by exfoliating it and removing dead skin cells. It helps in getting rid of deep-seated dirt and grime.
Once you’ve found the right face scrub for your skin type and determined how often to use it, all you need to do is incorporate it into your skincare routine. Using a face scrub once or twice a week can help you get a glowing complexion. While your skin is still damp, squeeze the directed amount of your chosen face scrub into your palms. You should always have clean hands before you apply the product, so please wash your hands well with soap and warm water. Your hands may have bacteria that can cause acne or infection on your face. Using your fingertips, apply the scrub to your face, starting at your chin and working your way upward and outward. Gently massage the scrub onto your face in circular motions for about 30 seconds to 1 minute, then leave it on the face for 5 minutes. Make sure you scrub your T-zone (chin, nose, and forehead), which is generally the oiliest part of the face. You’ll also want to focus on any problem areas, but take care to avoid the eye area, you do not want abrasives in or near your eyes. When you’re done, rinse it off with lukewarm (not hot) water and follow up with your preferred toner, serum, and moisturizer (and sunscreen, for daytime). Most experts recommend only using one type of exfoliant at a time, so avoid applying any strong acids or retinol after scrubbing your skin.
Steps:
Note: Do not try to pull your skin or use too much pressure while scrubbing. It can hurt your skin.
Choosing the right face scrub is of utmost importance. For best results, you should always choose a product that suits your unique skin type.
- Oily Skin: People with oily skin mostly have pimple problems as the extra sebum oil clogs their skin pores. Therefore, you need a face scrub that will not only remove the dead skin cells but also have anti-pimple properties in it. Salicylic Acid is known for its anti-acne benefits. If you have oily skin, you should get a face wash that contains Salicylic Acid or similar anti-acne ingredients.
- Dry Skin: Those with dry skin can use any face wash that has ingredients suited to remove dead skin cells. Glycolic acid is one such ingredient that removes dead skin cells and flakey skin easily. It is known to be a great exfoliant. Look for a face scrub that has glycolic acid and also provides some moisturizing benefits for your skin.
- Sensitive Skin: People with sensitive skin should be more careful while choosing their skincare products. If you have sensitive skin, make sure that your face scrub is antibacterial and anti-inflammatory. Propylene glycol has antibacterial and antifungal properties. Turmeric and yogurt are natural ingredients that offer anti-inflammatory benefits. Sugar scrubs are considered good for sensitive skin. Sugar is a natural skin exfoliant and works great to remove dead skin cells.
- Combination Skin: Since combination skin is a mix of dry and oily skin, it is a bit tough to choose a face scrub. However, experts say that people with combination skin should use a face scrub that would clean the excess oil from the skin without drying it out.

Peels are intended to remove the outermost layer of dead skin cells, giving the face a smoother, more radiant appearance. They work to exfoliate the top layers of cells and help clear up clogged pores, breakouts, dull skin, and dry skin. So if you are looking for a quick, gentle, natural way to leave your skin radiant and refreshed, then the ENZYMATIC FACE RENEWING & LIGHTENING LOTION from ATELIER POSITIVE® is the right product for you. Enzyme peels are composed of fruit enzymes and have many of the same results as chemical peels without harshness and downtime. Since the enzyme peels only work on dead skin cells, you don’t experience the same level of peeling or drying that a chemical peel does. This makes enzyme peels something you can do more regularly.
The BALANCING & OXYGENATING BIO-TONING MIST is a fast-penetrating liquid that delivers skin a quick hit of hydration and freshness. It’s like a primer for the rest of your skin-care routine like serums and moisturizers. Think of toner as prep for your pores. It brings your skin back to its natural acidic state, sweeping impurities away and helping your skin absorb your skincare products. Your skin is like a dried-up sponge. If you put a thick cream on a brittle dry sponge, it won't accept it and it isn't prepped for moisture. But if you wet the sponge, the cream will sink in more easily. Traditionally, a toner's function was to completely cleanse the skin, and often they were formulated to be very astringent to remove any traces of oil and debris. While the newer generation of toners may still remove traces of debris, they're meant to nourish and replenish the skin after cleansing and act as a primer for the rest of your skincare products.
Based on a variety of reasons, including genes and factors like diet, your skin type falls into one of 4 categories. The most common type in women is combination. It’s important to know your skin type to make sure you’re putting the right stuff on your face. Very dry skin probably won’t benefit from a water-based product; drier skin will appreciate heavier moisturizers to soak up as much moisture as possible. This day cream from ATELIER POSITIVE® especially formulated for normal and combination skin, is a daily facial treatment, that fills micro wrinkles, brightens and protects skin from cellular stress, and supports your normal skin's natural balance throughout the day. It gives brightness, tone, and hydration.
As you will notice in the package, together with the day cream you have purchased, you will find a second product, a tube containing another cream. It is a high-protection sunscreen (50 SPF) with the role of protecting your skin from sunlight and blue-light radiations, to be applied if necessary, before the day cream. Everyone knows that a good day cream must contain sunscreen in its formula. Instead, we opted for this solution for a very specific reason. By adding sunscreens in the formulation of the day cream, due to their composition, they tend to "weigh down" the texture of the cream, making it too dense and uncomfortable for some people, as well as difficult to absorb. We have therefore opted for this practical solution, allowing you to use or not the high-protection sunscreen only if and when you consider it necessary. For example, only if you are exposed outside for longer. Otherwise, you can use the day cream without sunscreens, therefore with an extremely pleasant texture and a greater degree of absorption. When using a physical sunscreen, always know that it must be applied after all other products so that it can create a barrier. Apply physical sunscreens after serums and moisturizers.
Brightening serums, also known as lightening serums, are a little misunderstood since they’re often confused to be skin whitening products simply because of the wording in their names. Think of the resulting brightening more like a newfound glow. The complexion-boosting benefits are often the best part of using a brightening bio-serum. The INTENSIVE BRIGHTENING & DARK SPOTS CONTROL BIO-SERUM from ATELIER POSITIVE® is a product with high-performance ingredients designed to reduce dullness and discoloration visibly and to help visibly brighten an uneven skin tone for a more uniform look. Extremely rich in traditional Swiss herbal ingredients and formulated with a light texture for easy yet effective and long-lasting moisture, thanks to its actives, protects face skin from ravages of time and environmental aggressions, thus delaying aging. Ideal for all skin types.
Serums are skin care products that are designed to deliver high concentrations of specific active ingredients to the skin. A serum can hydrate more effectively than even the heaviest creams. The FAST-ACTING ENERGIZING RADIANT SERUM-ESSENCE formulated by ATELIER POSITIVE®, it is a serum, that can be integrated into the morning or evening skincare routine and is ideal as a base under make-up. The molecules can truly penetrate the skin and hydrate on the deepest level, while the heavier creams sit on those top layers. Hydrating serums do not necessarily replace your moisturizer, but can boost the hydrating effects of your moisturizer. There is no “right age” to introduce serums. This light FAST-ACTING ENERGIZING RADIANT SERUM-ESSENCE is the perfect helper to reduce wrinkles and the appearance of fine lines, thanks to the presence of the peptides, while deeply moisturizing the skin. The result: the complexion glows and plumps the skin regains its elasticity and small wrinkles are visually padded up.
We all know that secondary packaging is an extremely sensitive ecological factor for everyone. At the same time, it represents the only visible element through which we can convey all the necessary information to understand its contents; not to mention that it could be compared to a "business card" of our brand that helps us stand out from others.
We have therefore committed to designing a truly innovative and beautiful secondary packaging that, in addition to meeting all of these specified needs, will not take away the excitement and experience of unpacking but will engage you in a new experience, inviting you to contribute to its recycling in a pleasant way, simply by burying it in your garden or a natural spot. We have included aromatic and medicinal plant seeds inside it that, with your care, will sprout from the ground, reminding you of us. The paper and cardboard material it is made of is not only composed of recycled paper (therefore biodegradable). We hope you will truly appreciate our efforts and choose us again in the future, not only for the quality of our products and our customer service but also for these small ecological gestures and commitments.
