What's The Real Difference Between Face Wash, Scrub, Cream & Peel-Off Mask? Let Us Explain!

Face wash. Scrub. Cream. Peel-off mask. These are the staples of any good skincare routine, but if you’re honest, you’ve probably stared at a shelf of products wondering, “Do I really need all of these?”

The short answer: yes, but only when you understand what each product actually does. Each step has a unique role in keeping your skin clean, nourished, and glowing. At Reshma Beauty, we offer multiple lines within each category, all inspired by traditional herbal beauty rituals. Across our collections, you’ll find ingredient-rich formulas featuring Turmeric, Rose, Kale, Honey & Lemon, and Saffron & Mint, thoughtfully designed for different skin needs.

Here’s a fun, easy guide to what each product does, how it works, and how to use it without overcomplicating your routine.

Face Wash: Your Daily Fresh Start

Think of your face wash as the first chapter of your skincare story. It sets the tone for everything that comes after. Its job is simple: cleanse your skin of dirt, oil, sweat, makeup residue, and pollution.

Why It’s Essential

  • Cleans your skin without over-drying

  • Prepares your skin for creams, scrubs, or masks

  • Helps maintain a healthy-looking complexion

Reshma Beauty face washes come in various formulas, each suited to different skin types, whether you want gentle daily cleansing, refreshing hydration, or a purifying cleanse that leaves your skin feeling alive.

Pro tip: Use lukewarm water, not hot, to protect your skin barrier, and gently massage in circular motions for best results.

Think of it as: hitting the reset button for your skin, every morning and night.

Scrub: Smooth, Glow, Repeat

Scrubs are the “polishing” step. While face washes cleanse the surface, scrubs gently remove dead skin cells that can make your skin look dull or feel rough. Regular exfoliation keeps your skin soft, radiant, and ready to absorb everything that comes next.

How a Scrub Helps

  • Smooths skin texture

  • Brightens and refreshes dull skin

  • Helps unclog pores for clearer-looking skin

Reshma Beauty scrubs include gentle yet effective exfoliating formulas, perfect for a weekly refresh. These products help you achieve glowing skin without harsh abrasion, so your face feels polished, not irritated.

Pro tip: Limit scrubbing to 2–3 times per week. Over-exfoliating can stress your skin barrier.

Think of it as: revealing the fresh, glowing skin hiding just beneath the surface.

Cream: Hydration, Balance & Protection

Creams are your skin’s daily armor. After cleansing and exfoliating, your skin needs moisture and nourishment to stay soft, smooth, and healthy-looking.

Why Creams Matter

  • Locks in hydration

  • Supports the skin’s natural barrier

  • Helps prevent dryness and irritation

  • Keeps your skin feeling soft and comfortable

Reshma Beauty creams come in multiple lines, formulated with botanicals like rose and other herbal blends to suit different skin needs. Lightweight enough for day wear, yet nourishing enough for night, creams are the step that holds your routine together.

Pro tip: Even oily or combination skin benefits from a daily cream — hydration actually helps balance oil production.

Think of it as: giving your skin the fuel it needs to glow from within.

Peel-Off Mask: The Weekly Treat

Peel-off masks are the fun, satisfying step in your routine and they work hard while you relax. These masks help lift away impurities, excess oil, and surface buildup for a deep-clean effect.

Why Peel-Off Masks Work

  • Cleanse pores more deeply than face washes alone

  • Refine the look of pores

  • Leave skin feeling fresh, smooth, and revitalized

Reshma Beauty peel-off masks include ingredient-forward formulas, like kale for antioxidant support, to refresh and rejuvenate your skin without harsh stripping. They’re ideal as a weekly treat, or whenever your skin feels tired, congested, or in need of a reset.

Pro tip: Apply evenly on clean, dry skin, let it fully dry, then peel gently from the edges. Follow with your favorite Reshma Beauty cream for soft, hydrated skin.

Think of it as: a weekly mini-spa for your face. Indulgent and effective.

How to Combine Them Into a Simple Routine

You don’t need a complicated 12-step routine to see results. Here’s an easy framework that hits all the key points:

  • Daily: Face Wash → Cream

  • 2–3 times a week: Face Wash → Scrub → Cream

  • Weekly: Face Wash → Peel-Off Mask → Cream

This approach ensures your skin stays clean, hydrated, smooth, and refreshed, without overdoing it.
