Clinique For Men™ Face Scrub

Clinique For Men™ Face Scrub is the step that comes before everything else in a shaving routine — before your cleanser, before the razor. It uses salicylic acid plus rounded granules to clear away flakes and oil build-up so the blade has a smooth surface to work on.

What it actually does

• Takes off the flakes. Clinique positions this as a scrub that smooths the surface and de-flakes skin.
• Clears oil build-up with salicylic acid. The acid works alongside the physical grains rather than instead of them.
• Uses rounded granules. The particles are shaped so they won't scratch skin as you work them in.
• Preps for a closer shave. The brand calls it the opening step of a pre-shave routine — exfoliate, then cleanse, then shave.
• One of the line's most popular products. Clinique describes it as among the most-loved items in the For Men range.
• Fragrance free and allergy tested, per the brand.

How to use

1. Wet your face first — this goes on before cleanser and before shaving.
2. Keep it away from the eye area.
3. Rub gently until the scrub turns white, then stop.
4. Rinse off, follow with your cleanser, then shave.
