in the wake of miss kyl*e j*nner launching a skincare line, i’d like to remind/inform all of you that YOU SHOULD NOT USE WALNUT SCRUBS ON YOUR SKIN. walnut scrubs cause MICROCUTS, you are TEARING YOUR SKIN when you use them. it isn’t exfoliating, it isn’t helping you remove dead skin— it’s JUST CUTTING YOU UP. please do NOT use walnut scrubs— that goes for the one kyl*e is releasing and the st ives one. pls be gentle with your skin
Ugh will someone please tell me when the skincare fear mongering will end?
microtears are not really a thing and the isn’t any scientific evidence or research on it. Like yeah we get it you read r/skincareaddiction.
The only thing scientific studies show is that abrasive cleansers are not recommended for sensitive skin. It’s not CUTTING you UP to DEATH. It’s not LITERALLY PEELING your FACE off. It’s just a harsher abrasive that you may want to avoid if you have sensitive skin.
I don’t use walnut scrubs because I have sensitive skin so please don’t think I’m just defending it because I use it. I’m just pointing out that there is no scientific evidence of microtears/microcuts and in all honesty it’s probably a made up marketing word used to drive consumers to use the (often more expensive) alternative of chemical exfoliants.
