The Ouai Scalp and Body Scrub will change your life!


But first things first - I need help with the proper pronunciation of the brand’s name: Is it “oui” or is it “way” or maybe neither? Who can help? Update: I decided to be smart and visit their website which cleared things up right away,,, It’s pronounced like “way” as in “It’s a Ouai of Life” 


A large jar of sugar crystal scalp and body scrub from Ouai


Now, to add to the chorus of praise for this  glorious jar of sugary goodness...


🤩 Smells divine - it’s called “Melrose Place” a dramatic rose scent, but I think it’s the white musk that I notice the most.


🤩 It’s a truly superb scalp scrub unlike any I’ve ever used. A few years ago I started trying out some scalps scrubs yet they just didn’t work out at all! But this one features a unique foaming scrub that lathers nicely and somehow easily spreads throughout my hair.


🤩 The probiotics in this formula really helps to balance my scalps natural biome! My often irritated scalp is left deep clean, perfectly exfoliated & refreshed!


🤩 A little goes a very long way since it magically lathers so effortlessly - I was pleasantly surprised by this because at first scoop it seems too thick & crunchy for hair/scalp. But alas, it is absolutely perfectly formulated for the scalp!!


I intended on using this just as a scalp scrub but then decided to try as a body scrub, I mean hey why not...and it’s phenomenal! A very spa-like scrub that makes my skin so unbelievably soft!!


Who loves this as much as I do??

Product Review: Facetheory!

The Glycolic Acid Face & Body Scrub: Product Review


A bestseller & highly rated Scrub from Facetheory, offered in Mandarin scent & unscented is a gentle yet capable, results driven scrub that’s ideal for both face & body. It features 2% glycolic acid + 1% salicylic acid. The addition of natural jojoba grains combine to give you a non-irritating exfoliating treatment.





My experience: I first splash warm water on my face then proceed to gently massage in this thick, creamy scrub for about 1 minute. It sorta creates a pleasing paste like mask, which I then leave on for another minute. (Massage any leftover on the back of your hands - they’ll thank you for this extra step!) The light mandarin oil scent is divine & definitely adds a lot to this routine. Rinsing with warm water + cleansing cloth is the most efficient way for me to remove since it is a bit of a thicker formula.


This product contains alpha/beta hydroxy acids, so I’m sure to avoid using on the same day as any retinol routines. Since I have dry skin, I only utilize this one time per week.


For a noteworthy mini facial use this scrub after Facetheory’s Vitamin C Cream Cleanser then finish with their Relaxing Night Cream = a trifecta of skincare routines!





It’s also a wonderful body scrub - especially effective for back of upper arms which for me is a problem area that tends to get extra dry & rough! This scrub really helps with that - creating a smooth canvas to follow with one of my go-to moisturizers! I was initially interested in this scrub due to its multi-tasking versatility - I do love a good multipurpose product!


Would you use a product that designed for both face & body??
