Hi there - I am very new here to this forum and could really use some recommendations for a good gentle facial scrub and mask. Preferably I would like to find one without harsh ingredients and chemicals of fragrance Razz

I am 41 with still normal/oily skin who still gets hormonal breakouts on the chin and lower cheek area.

In fact I think it's worse than when I was a teenager. I have always battled acne but I now battle wrinkles and age spots as well. I do occasionally get facials to help. I am just tired of SPENDING money on products which do not work. I just spent 80.00 for a scrub and mask made by BIOVERA and it did nothing. I cannot use anything like St. Ives it's fragrance is too perfumy and gives me a headache, plus my face feels like a cardboard box after...Any help would be wonderful & thanks

What are you using to treat your acne? Many of us here are dealing with acne as a adult so I understand. I never had bad acne as a teen but have been dealing it all of my adult life.

Are you looking for a scrub to treat your acne? If so you probably want to stay from manual scrubs because they can irritate the acne more. Chemical exfoliates would be better I think, particularly BHA which can be helpful with acne.

I really the asprin mask for a gentle exfoliating mask.
