Although exfoliating scrubs are typically sold in liquid or powder formats by the bottle and jar, the 'Frxxxtion Stick' is a novel vegan-friendly product from Tarte Cosmetics that comes in a solid form.
The multipurpose facial cleansing stick comes in packaging that makes it possible to roll the product over one's skin, effectively making it possible to apply a face mask without getting one's hands dirty. As the dark black color of the stick suggests, detoxifying charcoal is a main ingredient, which also exfoliates and cleanses the skin.
Knowing that today's busy consumers are always on the go, cosmetic brands are stepping up to provide new ways to use familiar products like lotions, personal fragrance products, lip scrubs and beauty balms that promote portability and prevent spills.
