BEFORE - Body Polish Dry Scrub

BEFORE is a dry body scrub designed to exfoliate dead skin, unclog pores, smooth rough texture, and reduce body breakouts, KP, and uneven skin tone. This performance polish works to support healthy skin turnover, improve circulation, and prep skin for better absorption of your skincare. With anti-inflammatory benefits, it helps calm redness, refine texture, and leave skin visibly smoother, clearer, and more even from the very first use.

Formulated as the first step in your body routine, BEFORE gently buffs away buildup while supporting overall skin health. It targets concerns like body acne, congestion, keratosis pilaris (KP), and dullness, helping reveal softer, more refined skin.

The result? Skin that feels smooth, looks clearer, and is perfectly prepped for everything that follows.

GOOD SKIN STARTS BEFORE THE SHOWER.

Apply BEFORE directly onto dry skin, massaging gently in circular motions from the neck down. Leave for a couple of minutes before rinsing thoroughly in the shower. For additional exfoliation, use a dry body brush with light pressure.

Follow with ALWAYS Buttery Body Moisturiser and AFTER Body Oil to help maintain hydration and leave your skin feeling soft, smooth and nourished.

If you're preparing for self-tan, exfoliate approximately 24 hours beforehand to help create a smoother base for a more even-looking result.

These are suggested routines. BEFORE is intended for body use only. Avoid applying to your face, broken or irritated skin, and immediately after shaving. Adjust exfoliation frequency to your skin's tolerance. 

1. What exactly does BEFORE Body Polish do?

BEFORE is a dry body exfoliator formulated to help remove dead skin cells, smooth rough texture and improve the appearance of uneven skin. Powered by natural pumice, nourishing botanical oils and cacao butter, it helps polish away surface buildup while leaving skin feeling softer, smoother and ready for the body care products that follow. Think of it as the first step to better body skin.

2. Why do I apply BEFORE to dry skin instead of wet skin?

BEFORE is specifically designed for dry application, allowing the pumice particles to make direct contact with the skin before being diluted by water. This provides a more concentrated exfoliating experience to help remove dead skin cells and smooth rough areas. Massage gently onto dry skin before showering, leave for a couple of minutes, then rinse thoroughly. There's no need to scrub aggressively to achieve results.

3. How often should I use BEFORE?

We recommend starting with 1–2 times per week and adjusting based on your skin's needs and tolerance. Regular exfoliation can help prevent the buildup of dead skin cells and maintain smoother-feeling skin, but more isn't always better. Over-exfoliating can cause dryness and irritation, so give your skin time between treatments.

4. Can BEFORE help with strawberry legs, keratosis pilaris (KP) and body breakouts?

BEFORE can help improve the appearance of rough, bumpy skin by removing surface dead skin cells and smoothing uneven texture. This may be particularly helpful for concerns such as strawberry legs and keratosis pilaris (KP). However, KP is a common skin condition that cannot be permanently removed through exfoliation, and physical scrubbing can aggravate inflamed breakouts. Avoid using BEFORE over active, irritated or broken skin.

5. Is BEFORE suitable for sensitive or dry skin?

BEFORE contains nourishing ingredients such as sweet almond oil, hazelnut oil, macadamia oil and cacao butter to help condition the skin during exfoliation. However, because it contains physical exfoliating particles and fragrance, it may not be suitable for very sensitive, irritated or compromised skin. We recommend patch testing first, using light pressure and following with a moisturiser.

6. Can I use BEFORE to prepare my skin for PART TIME TAN or EXPRESS TAN?

Absolutely. Exfoliating before applying self-tan helps remove dead skin cells and create a smoother, more even surface for your colour to develop. We recommend using BEFORE approximately 24 hours before tanning, paying particular attention to elbows, knees and ankles. Rinse thoroughly and ensure your skin is completely clean and dry before applying your tan. Avoid heavy oils or moisturisers immediately before tanning, as these can interfere with an even application.

7. Can BEFORE help remove old or patchy fake tan?

BEFORE can help gently exfoliate dead skin cells and gradually lift uneven self-tan as your skin naturally sheds. However, it isn't a dedicated tan remover, and trying to scrub off a fresh or heavily developed tan can cause irritation. For the most even result, allow your previous tan to fade naturally, exfoliate gently between applications and avoid layering fresh tan over patchy buildup.

8. Do I still need to moisturise after using BEFORE?

Yes. Exfoliation removes surface buildup, while moisturising helps replenish hydration and support your skin barrier. After rinsing BEFORE, follow with ALWAYS Buttery Body Moisturiser and AFTER Body Oil to help maintain soft, smooth and nourished-feeling skin. Exfoliation and hydration work together, rather than replacing one another.
