Exfoliate, Radiate with Our Best Body Scrubs and Exfoliants

Name a body ritual more satisfying than exfoliating. Go on, we’ll wait. Serving us soft skin, lifting ingrown hairs and providing the perfect base for Thursday night tanning sessions, body scrubs are one of the oldest and most golden beauty hacks in the book. And while we’ve come a long way from creating our own sugar scrubs over the kitchen sink as teenagers, there’s now so much choice we never know where to start. Traditional scrubs, chemical exfoliants and those which leave us smelling nothing short of delicious, here’s our ultimate low down on the best body scrubs on the market. Silky skin, reveal yourself.

How to use a body scrub

We might all think a body scrub does all the work for us and - thanks to a host of superpower ingredients - it does help us a long way. Acids are here to slough away dead skin cells, while physical exfoliants keep our skin smooth and silky. But, that’s nothing without a little body movement. For a little extra ingredient action, we suggest using all these scrubs in gentle, circular motions for better results. And for a more powerful scrub? Invest in an accessory like an exfoliating mitt or massaging brush. They’re not just for removing your faux glow during a tanning refresh; they’re our secret to a satisfying scrub and your smoothest skin yet.

Sol de Janeiro

Bom Dia Body Scrub

Sol de Janeiro

SOL DE JANEIRO Bom Dia Body Scrub 220g

£39.00

Best for serious body love

When our champions of body worship dropped this Black Amber Plum, Vanilla Woods and fresh Jasmine scented scrub, we knew we’d love it just as much as the rest of their line - and we couldn’t have been more right. Inspired by the golden beaches of Rio, this powerful AHA and BHA infused exfoliator feels just like sand. Made up of Glycolic Acid, Salicylic Acid, crushed Maracuja Seeds and Sugar Crystals, every use both smooths and visibly improves skin clarity to help us remember that all bodies are beach bodies.

Perfect match product: There’s no body cream we’d rather follow our exfoliation ritual with quite like Sol de Janeiro’s bestselling Bom Dia Cream. With the same beautiful scent and acid complex, plus a host of skin-loving butters, we won’t blame you if you can’t keep your hands off yourself.
First Aid Beauty

KP Bump Eraser Body Scrub with 10% AHA

First Aid Beauty

FIRST AID BEAUTY KP Bump Eraser Body Scrub with 10% AHA - AHA Body Scrub 283.5g

£31.00

Best for evening out skin texture

Delivering all the benefits of a chemical peel with none of the harsh side effects, First Aid Beauty knew what they were doing when they released this cult exfoliating body scrub. Created specifically for those who have Keratosis Pilaris, its potent blend of 10% Glycolic and Lactic Acids with Pumice Buffing Beads work to loosen the skin’s top layer - then whisk it all away. We love.

Perfect match product: Hoping for some more targeted action? These ingrown hair pads are our go-to for keeping any post-shave irritation at bay. We also like to use these when the temperatures climb to keep our underarms smelling fresh.

Skinfix

Skinfix Resurface+Glycolic Renewing Scrub 236ml

£32.00

Best for refining and defining

Exfoliants come in many forms, just like this resurfacing scrub from Skinfix. Creamy but powerful, you’ll find Glycolic Acid and Lactic Acid alongside gentle exfoliators to smooth skin, refining texture and revealing your natural radiance. Just apply to dry skin before you step into the shower, and rinse away under warm water. We promise you’ll see results within two weeks.

Perfect match product: For barrier building alongside *even more* exfoliating, we turn to Skinfix’s Renewing Cream for a double dose of AHA action - now with added BHAs.
TRULY

Berry Cheeky Butt Polish

Truly

TRULY Berry Cheeky Butt Polish 60ml

£13.00

Best for keeping breakouts at bay

A body polish for our bum? Don’t mind if we do. One of the most common areas for body acne, Truly brings us a super targeted treatment that helps minimise breakouts, slough away dead skin cells and even out any hyperpigmentation caused by acne scarring. Powered by a fruity blend of Berries, Jojoba Beads, and gentle Allantoin, it’s a unique formula we haven’t seen anywhere else - and we’re always wishing away the days until the next time we can enjoy it.

Perfect match product: For an extra hit of acne clearing, we pair Truly’s butt polish with their matching Butt Butter. Formulated with Allantoin and Beta Glucan, dial up the action and the hydration with every single use.
ELEMIS

Body Scrub Frangipani Monoi Salt Glow

ELEMIS

ELEMIS Frangipani Monoi Salt Glow Body Scrub 490g

£39.20

Best for bringing the spa to your skin

There is nothing - and we mean nothing - we love more than a trip to the spa. But for when our pockets don’t stretch that far (or we’re resetting in home sweet home), we always choose ELEMIS’ Salt Glow. Infused with the luxurious, tropical scent of Frangipani and Hibiscus, this indulgent formula melts onto skin and sloughs away dead skin cells with Mineral-rich salts. And with no fear of dry skin post-scrub, Tahitian Monoi Oil seals in moisture for a super soft finish.

Perfect match product: Keep the spa experience going by smoothing ELEMIS’ fan-favourite Monoi Body Oil onto damp skin. Our top tip? You can also use this on the ends of your hair to enjoy its tropical scent with every swish.
