20 Best Exfoliating Scrub For Men (2023 Updated)

I acknowledge there is many facial scrubs out there and I am sure there are better ones but LISTEN TEENAGERS. I am 20 years old and I been self conscious about my skin since I was a kid and I always wanted a daily skin routine but my father said there was no products compatible for a teenagers skin but then I found out about Baxter and it literally has the best skin routine in my opinion.

Why? Because is targeted not only for adults but for young adults and I love Baxter due to the fact they influenced me to take care of my skin. After I started using their products I feel a lot better about myself.

Fantastic product. Works really well, leaving skin soft, refreshed, and smelling great. I have to dock it one star, though, for the packaging. The picture above shows a bit of a lip on the cap, but my tube came with a smooth cap that has but a small indentation in the middle.

That’s it. So if your hands are wet or soapy, it’s impossible to get enough of a grip to pop the cap. I have to resort to using my teeth, which certainly isn’t very dignified.

The mens face scrub has been my ABSOLUTE favorite Clinique product that I’ve used RELIGIOUSLY for many, many years. It’s the only cleanser/scrub that keeps my skin clear from minor, hormonal acne breakouts AND leaves my skin feeing SO soft, fresh, and tingly.

The scrub particles have always been VERY FINE and DENSELY PACKED. I prefer it to the “non-mens” scrub (though I’ve heard they’re the same) and find it superior to the 7 Day Scrub. Even though it’s a “mens” product, it’s always been gentle enough for my skin.

It contained some salicylic acid for acne but not as much as products specifically for acne. Plus just the right amount of menthol makes my skin feel fresh & tingly. **UNFORTUNATELY, after unpacking and using this scrub from my recent order.

I was SO disappointed & upset to find that my fav product has been reformulated SO drastically that it’s now UNUSABLE. Honestly, I don’t know how it could be usable to any face-even men’s- not just mine.

Those very fine, densely packed scrub particles have been replaced by what feels like gravel. That fresh, tingly feeling is completely gone. And the icing on the cake: after ONE use of this new formulation.

I had little tiny red dots all over my face (like petechiae) because it was SO ROUGH. Also unfortunate is how difficult it is to reach a human at Clinique to process a refund or exchange. Emails go unanswered indefinitely, and the “open” hours for customer service are not compatible with my schedule.

Bottom line: do NOT use this new formula face scrub.

I am a female with sensitive skin, and I purchase this product for my husband. Surprise! I have use it more than him and can’t stop buying it. The product comes out of the bottle fast with it’s loose consistency but a lot goes such a long way.

It is very gentle on the skin and suds up very nicely. The best thing about the face wash is washing it off your face. Oh my word your face feel so clean and smooth. No residue, dryness or itchy feel.

Men, my husband loves this produce too. It has truly helped with reducing the ingrown hairs in his beard and leaves it feeling so soft.

The pores on my nose were “Big Daddies” until I started using Every Man Jack’s Face Wash with Activated Charcoal. It is a deep pore cleanser with salicylic acid. This stuff reduced the “Big Daddies” to “Little Babies” in no time.

It is like reverse aging. I almost feel sorry for them. Not really! I love this stuff!.

This product is no longer a true facial scrub like it says on the front. Bought a new tube last week from sherway gardens Kiehls store and It is more like a soft facial wash. I miss the grittiness it use to have.

Been buying this product for years and something definitely has changed unfortunately not for the better. I will sadly no longer be buying this product.

I’ve been using Kiehl’s since 1978 when I used to shop at 14th Street in while in High School. Many different product lines over the years. The facial fuel line for the past 15 or so years has been outstanding and best in class.

Unfortunately, they discontinued the after shave. To add further insult someone made the decision to drastically change the quality of the scrub. It is now a touch better than your drugstore scrubs but with a hefty price tag.

Way more cream than scrub. I’ll be bailing on the scrub and searching for the hits and misses out in the retail world. Save your hard earned money or waste it to concur with my review.

This re-formulated version of Razor Defense soap is awful. As noted in some other recent reviews, the product now has a prominent and unpleasant scent. More important, the soap is now much, much thicker.

It feels as though you are washing with thick goopy sunblock, with a small quantity of scrub particles mixed in. Even though I used the smallest possible amount, trying to rinse this off is a major project and once you think you’ve got it rinsed off it still feels like you have a layer of oily sunblock on your face.

This is a completely different experience compared to the original version of this product. Did they do any consumer testing of this new version? It’s hard to believe they did– this is just terrible in every respect.

If you liked the original version of this product I think it’s highly unlikely you’ll be happy with this new version. No more Razor Defense for me– I’m looking for a new product. I wish I could give this ZERO stars.

For many years I have been using Razor Defense Shave Creme + After Shave + Moisturizing Lotion and been completely satisfied. I have sensitive skin, especially on my neck, so Nuetrogena is the only product line that I can comfortably use.

Other brands have irritants like fragrances and dyes, and feel like a high schooler’s product. The Razor Defense suit has a fantastic scent, and is smooth like silk. I recently picked up the Face Scrub, and while I will echo what others have said that I wish it smelled as good as the other products, it is very effective.

Personally I don’t smell any scent, really. But I use it in the shower and it softens my coarse beard hair, exfoliates, and raises the hairs as well. I shave right after getting out and my shave is even closer after adding this face scrub.

I used to use this every time I did a clean shave and immediately after my face was amazing for days. I got this weird super dry are of skin where the top of my mask would be that just wouldn’t go away (not eczema), so I tried numerous lotions like aloe, some weird stuff my mom gets, whatever.

Then I was like wait a minute – I’ll try this stuff and just shave clean since that’s what I usually do when I use it. The dry skin on my face literally turned immediately back to normal after. I don’t know what they put in this stuff but sweet lord I might just start using it as body soap.

I’ll pay a thousand dollars for this stuff. Dove I’m telling you now if you discontinue it I’m suing for causing physical and emotional distress. If y’all wanna contact me with the name of the guy who created this I’ll send him a fat bottle of wine or something.

Wowza. I finally switched my face scrub to this and my face feels so soft & clean. It also totally tightened up my pores! There’s a slight fragrance but it’s really good & not super noticeable. I have really sensitive skin and totally recommend this!.

I use this scrub daily in the shower. I was amazed at how easily a little bit lathers up and I was able to cover my whole face and neck with just a little bit. I typically have dry and fairly sensitive skin, but leave the shower with my face feeling completely moisturized and smooth.

There are tiny beads in the scrub, but it doesn’t feel like sandpaper like some other washes and scrubs do, just right. I follow this up with a toner and then the Dove SPF daily moisturizer and have been happy with the results.

This is definitely my favorite of the series though. I’ve tried the Men+Care lotions, soaps, and body washes, but this is the most essential for me.

I’m female and I’ve been using this product for years (like 15) because I liked the feel and the smell. The formulation has changed; it used to be thicker, grainier, now it has more liquid and softer grains.

I wish it would have stayed the same but I still like it for weekly use. However, the nozzle in the cap broke off into the hole on mine too and I could no longer get any product out of it! Sounds like a lot of people are saying the same thing here – wild.

I had to throw the bottle away, I could not even push the “pistol” through the hole and into the product.

The product is great, my problem is with the package. The last 3 tubes have all had the exact same issue. The piece on the underside of the cap that plugs the hole in the tube when you close it has broken after 1 or 2 uses, thus creating a mess when you store the tube in the normal manner.

I end up losing approximately 1/3 of the product. At this point I’m ready to look around for something else.

My husband has been using this for years. He’s tried many different ones but this is by far best he has used. It’s a foaming cleansing scrub that deeply cleans skin to unclog pore. It helps remove his dead skin and trapped facial hair.

He uses it every couple of days and it makes his skin feel smooth and refreshed afterwards.

What a fantastic product. I have tried a few Nivea products but this is definitely a staple. Where to start. The smell, it has the typical Nivea smell which epitomises cleanliness, it just smells clean.

The scrub works very well without being abrasive. Even over fresh sunburn. The celluloid beads are small enough to scrub but not too big to stick to your skin when rinsing. I’ve tested the scrub on myself after a day in sun, with lotion on, then the obvious layer of sweat then grass from strimming and it worked perfectly.

Clear fresh skin in less than 30 seconds, I did shower afterwards though. If you’re new to men’s skin care or face washes then I’d highly recommend this product.

Nivea Men Protect & Care Exfoliating Face Scrub. Having used the Nivea Face Scrub, I feel that my face is more cleaner and i have less black heads and oily skin after using the Nivea Face Scrub. It really helps to clean my pores deeply and its so easy to use , you feel the effects after the first wash or two.

I plan to purchase Nivea Men Exfoliating Face Scrub when my current product is near empty. Overall a great product for men who want to look their best have nice clear , clean and healthy skin. #Nivea #HomeTesterClub I would recommend Nivea Men Protect & Care Exfoliating Face Scrub as it leaves my face looking clean fresh and deeply cleansed and helps with getting rid of black heads and my face looks and feels much better using this product.

You need to know what you are buying with something like this. It is a serum designed to brighten the skin and any dark spots on your face, and while it might do that just bear in mind that it will take a long time.

You will likely notice your face is a bit brighter, but obviously it will take a lot longer to brighten any dark spots. Also, don’t confuse brighten with healthy glow, they are not the same thing. this will try and lighten your skin rather than make it glow.

Incidentally, Vitamin C is often used to do this but it has to be kept stable – i. e. airtight and away from light, so this kind of packaging is perfect for that. It has no scent, rubs in easy and matte, you won’t get any shine from it.

I wouldn’t use it after shaving though or when your skin is irritated. Be prepared to wonder why you just rubbed it in though, because you won’t notice any immediate effects, it takes some time. This is one of those products where you don’t really know why you are applying it, until you notice the results.

It is not a moisturiser, so you won’t feel those kind of benefits after using it, and so you have to use a moisturiser on top. Perseverance is key with these products so be prepared to keep it up! So, that’s what it does, but remember also that using something like this is pointless if you don’t use SPF in the sun in which case you are just wasting your money.

I have been a loyal Lab Series customer for over five (5) years purchasing my products in local stores. Well the stores no longer carry the Lab Series product. So I decided to order the Invigorating Facial Scrub online.

I ordered two (2) tubes and neither tube has any “Invigorating” in it. I have more sand in my shoes than the product has in it. I then called to talk to someone to see if it was just a bad batch and was told they would gladly replace the two tubes free of charge.

Well, I’m still waiting for the replacement tubes!! Whenever you call the service line you get passed around to numerous operators and never get who you want. My last experience it took five (5) operators to finally get someone who could help me.

That’s very disappointing.

Comes in a nice gel with a lot of scrubbing beads. You can feel it pull of dead skin afterwards your face will look really clean. It brightens up the skin and pulls that dead skin away from tough spots like the temples and around the nose.

I’d probably only use it once a week or so, as it seems aggressive but in a good way. Almost no scent. I followed with MaxLS cleanser, but probably would be good on its own.

I love The Body Shop products, and especially tea tree scrub. It is very calming for acne prone skin. After using it about 3 times my acne disappeared. I feel so happy with the results that I want to share it with everyone.

This works great if you want to get rid of the blemishes. It has a nice thin scrub texture and has a lovely delicate smell. My face looks glowing and plumped after using it. I highly recommend this product! It is truly amazing!.

I cannot express enough what this ingredient has done for my skin. I had severe acne scarring, large pores, blackheads and most of all lots of redness and inflammation. I have very sensitive skin and my skin LOVES this stuff.

Soaks up like a sponge and really gives my skin that tight squeaky clean and fresh feeling. Worth every penny. Also, every item in this brands line with tea tree oil is amazing EXCEPT the mattifying primer.

It’s a no go roll up on your face type of situation.

My teen son has been struggling with blackheads and breakouts for the last year. We had tried the Cetaphil cleanser, the clinique acne gel, and clinique moisturizer but he wasn’t using them regularly.

His breakouts were the result of too much oil production so I wanted to try this line instead. I bought the night lotion, tea tree oil and tea tree scrub cleanser. It hasn’t worked miracles. He still gets some breakouts, but his face is significantly less oily which means fewer breakouts.

It also does not dry his skin out like salicylic acid tends to do.

Wow, honestly my face feels so good after I use this scrub. I needed a scrub to go with my shower routine and this one is great. Feels as if it scrubbed off a layer of dead skin but skin is left feeling so smooth and soft.

Invigorating. The exfoliants give the skin a good scrub and polish. The scent is what keeps me coming back time and time again. So addicting!! I wish I had a body wash in this scent.

My husband loves this cleanser. He said it makes his skin feel clean and soft every time.

Urth’s face scrub is probably the best one I’ve ever tried – it’s refreshing and I can actually feel the difference after exfoliating consistently every other day. The product also smells nice and you don’t need to use a lot of it.

There’s only two reasons why I gave it four stars: first, price is a bit steep, especially if you buy the smaller size. The bigger issue for me is that after a few months the product starts to harden and get crusty around the top.

Once it hardens like that, it’s almost impossible to use unless I soften it back up with a lot of water. Even then, it never really gets back to its normal consistency, so I end up wasting a fair bit of the bottle.

Still, the product does last a long time if you use it sparingly, and you only need to apply a little bit each time.

I’m sure I would have liked this product, but unfortunately I received a jar that had a tampered safety seal and was obviously used. Some of the product was missing and appeared scooped out with someone’s fingers.

Thus, I didn’t feel it was safe to use, and promptly asked for a refund. It was given to me, and Massdrop support was very helpful and speedy through the whole process. Edit – I’ve since purchased some from Amazon, no qualms this time.

I’m glad I did; this is by far one of the best facial cleansers I have used. Feels great, cleans deep, and has made exceptional difference in the appearance of my nose pores, which was my main incentive for purchasing.

The four ounces seem like they will last me a good while; I don’t need to use a ton of it to feel and see progress. Overall, a fantastic product.

As a guy, I really love this product, even though I am sure it isn’t only for men. It is something that most guys don’t think of or, even worse, snicker at the idea. Other than extremely rare exceptions, I would bet that any men that try it would wish they had discovered this product a long time ago.

It is magnificent! It actually reminds me of my amazing experience in doing a natural volcano mud bath during my honeymoon in St. Lucia. I only use this about every third night (although I can see why some people would want to start their day with this) because while I do believe it works, I want to enjoy the experience when I use this scrub.

I do take my time when I use this and I don’t want it to be a part of a routine that I do automatically or in a hurry. It seems to be something of a secret and I would encourage you to give yourself the chance to have a nice emotional experience that is far better than just doing something that feels good and smells good.

Just slow down, use some real hot water and relax.
