The Face Shop Smart Peeling Mild Papaya Douce Review
We all have heard about the goodness of Papaya when it comes skincare and when I saw this product from The Face Shop called “Smart Peeling Mild Papaya Douce“, I couldn’t wait and decided to try it. Plus, it was available on Nykaa in Combo.
Exfoliation is an important part of our skincare routine. Not just Important, it is a kind of satisfaction too. At least I feel so! There are times when I feel like I just need a good scrub, a good exfoliator to scrub all the dead cells and dullness away from my face.

Review – The Face Shop Smart Peeling Mild Papaya Gel Exfoliant
Packaging: It comes in a pump bottle with a locking clip which keeps the pump locked when not in use. It protects from any kind of leakage. I really loved this concept. All pump bottles should be like this. 😃
Fragrance: It has a mild fruity fragrance to it which isn’t strong or bothering at all. Will suit sensitive nose as well.
My Experience
This is the first time I tried something called “Peeling Scrub” or “Peeling Gel” and I enjoyed it. It is something different and new from those regular granules based scrubs. The consistency is just like a gel and doesn’t contain any sort of exfoliating beads in it.
I took half or one pump and started massaging on my clean and dry face in good circular motions just like we do with our regular scrubs. Next what I see is, the gel turns in some sort of peels and those tiny peels were massaging and exfoliating my skin. It is a totally different concept from granules based exfoliators.
What an amazing and unique feeling it was. Those peels gave me a feeling like my skin is getting a good cleanse. I massaged well for a minute or two and washed away with water. My skin clearly felt soft post-wash. There wasn’t any Instant Brightness or something but my skin really felt clean and exfoliated.
It claims to leave skin moisturized and yes it didn’t leave my skin dry or stretchy at all. I am happy that it didn’t leave any greasy layer on my skin.
Are Results any Different from Regular Granules Based Scrubs?
No. The results are not different if compared to regular granules based scrub. After both types of exfoliation, my skin feels clean, smooth and soft. The only difference is the way both exfoliators works. One has beads or granules which can go from mild to strong whereas one is in gel form which turns into peels.
For days when I feel like going for mild exfoliation, this solves the purpose.
If you feel like you need an exfoliator but not with those poky granules, I think this The Face Shop Smart Peeling Mild Papaya Douce will be an ideal option for you. Oh, and yes, it didn’t cause any sort of irritation. I faced no rashes, breakouts or itching.
If you will ask me which I like more, I will say both kind of exfoliators are unique in their own ways and both feel great on the skin. Didn’t felt an absolute need but not a option for mild exfoliation either. I wanted to know what Peeling Scrub feels like and what exactly it does and I am happy to give that a try.
Conclusion
The Face Shop Smart Peeling Mild Papaya Douce or Scrub is a peeling gel which turns into peels when massaged on dry skin. Those peels give a mild exfoliation leaving skin massaged, clean, soft and smooth. The results are not any different from regular granules based scrubs. Those who prefer mild exfoliation and want to avoid granules will like it.
