Product Information
Full details
The Queen Helene Mint Julep Scrub is an ideal skincare solution for individuals with oily or acne-prone skin looking to achieve a clearer complexion through deep pore exfoliation. Its primary benefit is the combination of effective impurity removal with hydrating glycerin to prevent excessive drying, though users with highly sensitive or dry skin should exercise caution as the minty formula can be quite cooling and vigorous.

FAQs
How often should I use this scrub?
It is generally recommended to use the scrub 1-2 times per week depending on your skin's tolerance.
Is this product suitable for sensitive skin?
Due to the vigorous exfoliating particles and cooling mint, it is generally not recommended for sensitive skin.
Can I use this on my body?
While designed for the face, some users find it effective for small areas of body congestion, though it is formulated primarily for facial skin.
Does it contain microbeads?
The scrub uses traditional natural-based physical exfoliants to clear pores rather than plastic microbeads.
Is the Leaping Bunny certification current?
Yes, Queen Helene maintains their cruelty-free status through the Leaping Bunny program.
Troubleshooting
Skin feels too dry after use
Reduce frequency of use to once a week and follow immediately with a hydrating moisturizer.
Difficulty rinsing off residue
Use a warm, damp washcloth to gently wipe the skin instead of relying solely on splashing water.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
For best results, dampen your face with warm water to help soften the skin before application. Avoid applying the scrub directly into the eyes or on broken, inflamed, or sunburnt skin. After use, ensure the cap is tightly sealed to maintain the product's consistency and keep the tube in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. It is compatible with most non-medicated facial cleansers, but users should avoid using this product simultaneously with strong chemical exfoliants like AHAs or BHAs to prevent over-exfoliation.
