Quick answer
If you want immediate, visible smoothness and a glow boost, choose the Coral Coast Body Scrub. For gentle daily exfoliation that won't strip your skin, go with the Coral Coast Body Wash.
Physical vs Chemical Exfoliation: What's the Difference?
The Coral Coast Body Scrub uses ultra-refined salt and sugar crystals to manually buff away dead skin cells. This physical exfoliation gives you instant smoothness but can be too harsh for sensitive or broken skin if overused.
The Coral Coast Body Wash relies on niacinamide and a mineral complex to gently refine skin texture over time. This is a form of chemical exfoliation that works gradually and is suitable for daily use without irritation.
When to Use Each Product
Use the body scrub 1-2 times per week as a deep exfoliation treatment. The oil-infused formula with Vitamin C oil also brightens and moisturizes, making it ideal for pre-event prep or when your skin feels dull.
Use the body wash daily for consistent, gentle exfoliation. Coconut water and sunflower lipids keep skin hydrated, so it's a safe choice for all skin types, including dry or sensitive.
