Instead, I tend to manage it with a body scrub. However, I've noticed that the more coarse and rough the scrub particles are, the better the exfoliation and the softer my skin becomes, but it also tends to be more irritating, causing a burning sensation and even drawing blood at times. On the other hand, when the scrub particles are finer and gentler, there's less irritation, but the exfoliating effect is also quite minimal, often leaving me disappointed. Geomae has been highly recommended from various sources and is quite a popular product, so I decided to give it a try this time, and I'm quite satisfied with it. As soon as I opened the generous 600g jar, a subtle sweet grape fragrance wafted out. After thoroughly mixing the sunken Dead Sea salt and oils and gently massaging it into my skin, rinsing it off leaves my skin noticeably softer. There is significantly less dryness and irritation after rinsing, and the exfoliating effect is excellent. It's also great for managing ingrown hairs after hair removal. It seems there's a good reason why this product is so widely recommended by people. I highly recommend this body scrub to those looking for effective exfoliation with minimal irritation and dryness.
ConsThe Dead Sea salt particles aren't overly coarse, but if you apply too much pressure while massaging, it can still be irritating. Also, it can sting quite a bit if it comes into contact with any wounds, so be careful to avoid those areas.
TipWhile this product is not overly drying, be sure to apply a moisturizer after use! Also, the salt particles will dissolve once they come into contact with water, so it's best to only scoop out the amount you plan to use from the main product.

Using it once a week makes my skin feel so soft and smooth.
ConsIt can be irritating if used frequently or on damaged skin. The scrub is quite thick, so it's difficult to mix with oil.

You can feel the sensation of a slushie machine. Your skin becomes smooth and soft! Since it doesn't contain shea butter, it's effective for back acne! Your body temperature rises when you massage it. The size is large and the price is affordable!
ConsYou can feel the sensation of a slushie machine.... There is some irritation since it's like rubbing salt. After using it, there was a reddish trace for about 10 minutes before it disappeared. Unlike other scrubs, you can't see peeled off dead skin or dirt, so it's unclear whether this is actually a scrub or just a massage.
TipWithout shea butter, it's perfect for body blemishes

After using it, my skin definitely feels softer!
ConsI have quite sensitive skin, so it was a bit too irritating and stinging for me. The granules are like salt, so even the slightest contact with any cuts really stings!!! Be careful with this product.
TipBe sure to mix the salt and liquid well before applying!!

However, it does have a slightly heavy feel, and there is a bit of an oily residue left after use, though it does leave a moisturized sensation. My mother has what she calls 'snake skin' - her skin is smooth, with a scale-like appearance, and she constantly deals with peeling white flakes and skin irritation. She recommended this product and told me to try it, but unfortunately it doesn't work well for me.
ConsIt's too irritating 😢 For those who always struggle to use scrub products properly, or find them too harsh and ineffective, I wouldn't recommend this. Even when mixing it well with the oil, it's still too strong for my skin - it stings uncomfortably after use. I'd rather just go to the bathhouse and have them gently scrub off the dead skin.

Sweet grape aroma~ I always bring this with me when I go to the sauna. It's a product that the sauna ladies keep asking about. These days, there are many better scrubs, but I only use this one because of the grape scent!
ConsWhile it claims to be a powerful exfoliator, it doesn't completely remove all the dead skin. It's too irritating to use daily. In my case, since my skin is sensitive, I have to rinse it off within 3 minutes or else my skin gets really red and stings uncomfortably.
TipChoose a body brush with a bit stronger bristles, and after applying this product to your feet, brush them. Even in the middle of winter, you can maintain smooth, youthful feet this way.

It also seems to have been well-dissolved, which was nice.
ConsThis was the first time I used this product. It didn't dissolve very well in water, and the granules were quite coarse. After washing, there were some scratches here and there. The coarse granules were a bit painful.
TipHmm.. Gently rub and leave it for some time, then rinse thoroughly with water afterwards. That seems to help it dissolve well.

The scrub function is decent, but the effect is good, so there is some irritation as well.
ConsI used it consistently, but the scrub particles (Dead Sea salt) felt rough and coarse, and I felt like my skin was getting scratched. It also stung and caused swelling, even though I don't have sensitive skin. It seems like using it too often wouldn't be a good idea, so I won't be repurchasing it.
TipThe product is meant to be used mixed with oil, and increasing the amount of oil can help reduce the irritation.

And even people with sensitive skin can exfoliate without any irritation.
ConsI've used four different types of Geoma, and this one had the smallest granules, so it didn't have the coolest feeling. By the way, I'm not a tough-skinned person haha. My skin is sensitive, and if I scrub too hard, I get hives. The granules in this were just too small, you know? Since I can't scrub hard, I'm a person who uses scrub products, and this one was lacking for me.
