Based on the picture on the tube, I was pleased to see that the exfoliating effect in this product is achieved from nutshells and apricot kernels, i.e. of natural origin. Why does this cream still contain microplastics? I am a little disappointed, because I was very happy with this product. It helped me a lot with my dry skin on my feet. Now the tube is empty and I don't really want to buy anything else with microplastics...
Hello dabudue, thank you for your question. We can reassure you right away: We do not use any microplastics in this scrub. As stated on the back of the tube of this product, the abrasive parts in the scrub come from whale and macadamia nut shells. If the issue here is that you are mistakenly equating microplastics with synthetic polymers: It is correct that synthetic polymers are present in the product. These are water-soluble individual molecules and are much smaller than the plastic pieces of microplastics. They have no surface to absorb substances, so they cannot cause the environmental problems identified for microplastics. They are degradable - albeit very slowly - and do not accumulate in the environment. In addition, the majority is filtered out in sewage treatment plants and disposed of in waste incineration. If you want to avoid them altogether, we recommend using natural cosmetics, where no synthetic polymers may be used. Alternatively, you can also consider Good Mood products, which contain ingredients of natural origin (but are scented with synthetic fragrances). Best regards, your M-Infoline team

Hello Werbinich, thank you for your inquiry. As the product is a 2-in-1 combination that is suitable for care and exfoliation, you can apply the cream dry or wet. We recommend that you massage it in using circular movements and then wipe off the excess natural grains with a dry cloth so that the nourishing cream continues to adhere to your feet. Best regards, your M-Infoline team
