Plus, we love a good DIY moment too.

Why Your Skin Loves a Good Exfoliation
First, let’s know what exfoliation is. Exfoliation is the process of removing dead skin cells from the surface of your skin. Think of it like sweeping your skin clean so everything you apply next (serum, moisturizer, glow drops, etc…) can actually do its job.
Here’s what regular exfoliation helps with -
-
Smoother texture
-
Brighter complexion
-
Fewer clogged pores and breakouts
-
Better absorption of skincare products
Whether you go for an exfoliating face mask for oily skin or an exfoliating scrub for sensitive skin, the benefits are universal, if done right.
But the question is, what’s better for you, mask or scrub.. Let’s have a look!
Choose What Works for You - Mask or Scrub?
So how do you pick between a DIY exfoliating face mask and a scrub?
Masks - Perfect for a more even exfoliation. They gently slough off dead skin while giving your face a hydrating or detoxifying boost.
Scrubs - Best for targeted physical exfoliation. Use them if you want to feel that instant smoothness (but always be gentle!).
Here at Vedic Valley, we offer both, so you can customize based on your mood, skin type, or how much time you have.
How to Use an Exfoliating Face Mask at Home
Using an Exfoliating Face Mask is like hitting the reset button on your skin.
Here’s how to do it -
-
Start fresh - Wash your face with a mild cleanser.
-
Apply your mask - Whether it’s a Vedic Valley favorite or your own at home exfoliating face mask, spread an even layer over your face.
-
Wait and chill - Leave it on for 10–15 minutes. (Now's the time to sip your chai or scroll your playlist.)
-
Rinse off gently - Use lukewarm water and pat dry.
-
Follow up - Always moisturize after, even if you used an exfoliating face mask for oily skin.
Use 1–2 times a week for best results.
DIY Exfoliating Face Recipes We Love
Want to mix it up with kitchen ingredients? Try these simple combos -
-
For dry skin - Oats + honey + yogurt = nourishing exfoliating face mask for dry skin
-
For oily skin - Multani mitti + rose water + turmeric = clarifying and oil-absorbing
-
For acne-prone skin - Aloe vera + sugar + a drop of tea tree oil = soothing acne exfoliating scrub
Always do a patch test first to make sure your skin vibes with the ingredients.
How to Use an Exfoliating Face Scrub Without Overdoing It
Scrubs are great, but only when used with a gentle touch.
Here’s your go-to guide for a perfect exfoliation routine -
-
Wet your face with lukewarm water.
-
Apply the scrub with your fingertips, using light, circular motions.
-
Focus on congested areas like the nose and chin.
-
Rinse thoroughly and pat your face dry.
-
Moisturize! Never skip this step.
Our Exfoliating Face Scrub options at Vedic Valley are created to suit different skin types; yes, even if you need an exfoliating scrub for sensitive skin or acne exfoliating scrub.
How Often Should You Exfoliate?
Less is more here. Over-exfoliating can irritate your skin and strip its protective barrier.
-
Dry or sensitive skin? Once a week is plenty.
-
Oily or acne-prone skin? Two times a week, max.
The key is consistency and listening to your skin.
