Frequently Asked Questions

What is a dual-action scrub, and how is it different from a regular exfoliator?

A dual-action scrub combines two exfoliation methods in one product. ZO® Dual Action Scrub pairs chemical exfoliation from lactic acid and salicylic acid with physical exfoliation from synthetic wax and candelilla wax, a non-irritating duo that sloughs away skin-clogging cells. Together they clear dead skin cells and decongest pores while physically smoothing the skin's surface, making it more comprehensive than a single-method exfoliator.

What does Dual Action Scrub do for the skin?

ZO® Dual Action Scrub physically and chemically exfoliates dead skin cells, dissolves and removes excess surface oil, and targets acne-causing bacteria via melaleuca alternifolia (tea tree) leaf oil. Glycerin and sodium PCA restore hydration and reinforce skin barrier function after exfoliation. ZOX12® delivers up to 12 hours of antioxidant protection against free radical damage, and ZO-RRS2® minimizes oxidative stress-induced damage. The result is skin that is decongested, calmed, and protected, not simply stripped.

Who is Dual Action Scrub formulated for?

ZO® Dual Action Scrub is formulated for oily or blemish-prone skin. It is the Getting Skin Ready® exfoliator for this skin type, used AM or PM as part of your ZO® system after cleansing and before toning.

How do I use Dual Action Scrub?

Apply ZO® Dual Action Scrub after cleansing as your exfoliation step within Getting Skin Ready®. Gently massage a small amount onto damp face and neck, then rinse thoroughly. Follow with your ZO® toner. Use AM or PM as directed by your physician.

Is ZO® Dual Action Scrub suitable for blemish-prone skin?

Yes. ZO® Dual Action Scrub is specifically formulated for oily and blemish-prone skin. Salicylic acid chemically exfoliates dead skin cells and helps decongest pores, while physical exfoliation from synthetic wax and candelilla wax removes surface buildup. Melaleuca alternifolia (tea tree) leaf oil helps address bacteria associated with blemishes while dissolving excess surface oil. If you have persistent blemish concerns, your physician can advise on the appropriate combination of ZO® products for your skin.

Can I use Dual Action Scrub on my body as well as my face?

ZO® Dual Action Scrub is formulated for the face and neck.
