Diptyque Radiance Boosting Powder, $58
Exfoliates with: white clay and powdered flower petals
We've always loved Diptyque candles and fragrances. (L'Ombre dans L'Eau for the win!) We're equally smitten with its new line of facial care products. Diptyque's Radiance Boosting Powder for the face -- made with white clay and powdered rose, neroli and jasmine petals (swoon) -- builds up to a lightly exfoliating and mildly foamy lather when combined with water.

Garnier Clean + Invigorating Daily Scrub, $7.99
Exfoliates with: jojoba beads
If you just love your microbead scrubs, try a jojoba bead product. Jojoba beads (or esters) are crystallized bits of jojoba oil. Smooth and spherical, jojoba esters are less abrasive than many other natural ingredients, like crushed apricot kernels, which have a jagged shape that's more likely to irritate skin.

Boscia Konjac Cleansing Sponge, $15
Exfoliates with: konjac root
So your Clarisonic's $40 brush head refills are breaking the bank? Amen, sister. Consider the much cheaper konjac root sponge for light exfoliation. Konjac sponges feel kind of like wet Styrofoam (in a good way), with a squishy, slippery texture that cleanses skin without feeling scratchy. Boscia infuses its konjac sponges with ingredients like charcoal and green clay to fight acne and red clay to rehydrate.

Ole Henriksen Rub N' Buff Salt Scrub, $38
Exfoliates with: sea salt
Lots of salt-based body scrubs are runny, oily messes, but this refreshing, lemongrass-scented cleanser has a thick, paste-like texture so it doesn't drip everywhere -- and it makes skin baby-soft. Just don't use it directly before or after shaving.

Burt's Bees Citrus Facial Polish, $8
Exfoliates with: almonds, pecan shells, oat flour
In its adorable, homespun-looking tub, this tried-and-true facial scrub is a steal at eight bucks and gets its grit from ground nuts and oats. Sweet almond oil and glycerin leave skin dewy soft. It dissolves dirt and makeup with grapefruit seed extract and sweet orange oil, but don't expect a citrusy scent -- this one smells more like pumpkin bread.
