The sensorial qualities of boba have broken into the beauty industry, as seen in TIRTIR's Matcha Bubble Tea Scrub with matcha PDRN, bubble tea-inspired cellulose pearls and a konjac gel base.
Manually exfoliating bodycare products can range from too gentle to too rough, and the beauty of TIRTIR's Matcha Bubble Tea Scrub formula is that its intensity can be controlled. The dual-scrub's combination of plant-based, microplastic-free Matcha Cellulose Pearl Balls and a non-irritating Konjac Gel Scrub base means that users can opt to use one or both components to support everyday maintenance or a deep polish as part of an extensive weekly treatment.
The Matcha Bubble Tea Scrub is one part of a complete Matcha Line from TIRTIR, which also includes Matcha Tea Pads for instant redness relief and a soothing Matcha Skin Toner.
