Key Information
What Oxyglow Herbals Says
Product Description:
A papaya scrub is a skincare product made from papaya extract or papaya enzymes combined with exfoliating agents like sugar or ground seeds. Papaya contains enzymes such as papain and alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs) which help in exfoliating dead skin cells, revealing smoother and brighter skin. To make a DIY papaya scrub, you can mash ripe papaya and mix it with a natural exfoliant like sugar or oatmeal. Apply the mixture to damp skin, gently massage in circular motions, and then rinse off with warm water. Remember to do a patch test first, especially if you have sensitive skin, to ensure you don't have any adverse reactions. And as with any skincare product, it's important to moisturize afterwards to keep your skin hydrated. Features: Exfoliation: The enzymes in papaya, such as papain, help to gently exfoliate the skin by breaking down dead skin cells. This promotes cell turnover, revealing smoother and brighter skin. Unclogs Pores: Regular use of papaya scrub can help unclog pores by removing dirt, oil, and other impurities from the skin's surface, reducing the likelihood of acne breakouts and blackheads. Brightens Skin: The natural exfoliating action of papaya scrub helps to fade dark spots, hyperpigmentation, and uneven skin tone, resulting in a more radiant complexion. Hydration: Papaya contains vitamins A, C, and E, which nourish and hydrate the skin, leaving it soft and supple.

Glycerin
Common Name(s): Glycerol,glycerine,1,2,3-propanetriol
CAS Number: 56-81-5
DESCRIPTION
What It Does: Glycerin pulls water from the environment and deeper skin layers into the outer skin layer (epidermis), boosting moisture levels and keeping skin soft, smooth, and plump.
Why It's Used: It is used in virtually every moisturizer, serum, and cleanser because it is highly effective at hydrating skin, is well-tolerated by all skin types, and enhances the texture and spreadability of formulations.
How It Works: As a humectant, glycerin forms hydrogen bonds with water molecules, trapping them in the skin. it also reinforces the skin barrier by integrating into lipid structures between skin cells.
