スクラブ洗顔とクレイ洗顔の違い

The difference between scrub and clay facial cleansers

An acquaintance of mine praised GA Cosmetics' "Clay Facial Cleanser," but it seems he has mistaken it for a scrub facial cleanser, so I'd like to clarify.

Furthermore, because our clay facial cleanser has excellent cleansing and adsorption powers, many people may think it is a scrub facial cleanser, but it also contains three types of hyaluronic acid to help moisturize your skin after washing, so you can use it comfortably every day!

The difference between scrub and clay facial cleansers lies in how they cleanse and their effect on the skin. Let's compare their respective features.


1. What is a facial scrub?

Features

Physically removes dead skin and dirt

It contains granular scrubs (fine plastic, silica, natural particles, etc.) that remove dead skin cells and sebum through friction when washing your face.

Characterized by a smooth wash feeling

merit

✔ Thoroughly removes dead skin cells and dirt from pores

✔ The skin becomes smoother and lotions and other products penetrate better.

Disadvantages

✖ Strong friction can be a burden on sensitive and dry skin

✖ Excessive use can damage the skin's barrier function (recommended use once or twice a week)

2. What is clay facial cleanser?

Features

Removes dirt with suction power

Contains clay ingredients that absorb and wash away sebum and dirt from pores.

They often create elastic foam, which puts less strain on the skin.

merit

✔ Friction-free and gentle cleaning (also great for sensitive skin)

✔ Absorbs sebum and dirt from pores

✔ Leaves skin feeling moisturized and less prone to dryness

Disadvantages

✖ Not as immediate as a scrub, and the exfoliating effect is milder

* Some types of clay dry out easily.

4. The Strengths of GA Cosmetics' Clay Facial Cleanser

GA Cosmetics' **Clay Facial Cleanser (Contains Bentonite)**

✅ Absorbs dirt and sebum from pores

✅ Friction-free face washing with elastic foam (gentle on skin)

Unlike scrub facial cleansers, the big point is that it can "care for and cleanse pores without damaging the skin."
