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.

Fresh Brown Sugar Body Polish, $65
Exfoliates with: sugar

The sweet, zesty fragrance of Fresh's Brown Sugar Body Polish is the scent that launched a thousand beauty products, from the best-selling Sugar Lip Treatment to soap to deodorant. Real brown sugar crystals scrub and soften with a little help from sweet almond, evening primrose, jojoba and citrus oils.
