Since this powder is finely ground it should be okay for a facial scrub at a ratio of 0.50 to 1% of your total batch weight. I would recommend making a few tester batches first and have various friends sample them along with you.

I would be very careful in doing this because it is slightly abrasive. If you do use it I would use it in a very small rate.

I use this apricot seed powder in face scrubs all the time and my customers love it! You will want to start out adding just a little at first, as a little goes a long way!

Just make sure not to go over the recommended usage maximums. This ingredient along with ground apricot kernel are used in popular name brand facial scrubs.

Staff Answer We have not tested it in a facial scrub, but it is finely ground and also considered a “skin friendly” scrub.
