Azlok's Walnut Body Scrub Base is a ready-to-use exfoliant made with finely ground walnut shell powder, sweet almond oil and jojoba oil, so you can apply it directly to damp skin or use it as a base for your own scrub brand. It buffs away dull, dead skin without you having to blend or formulate anything from scratch.
What it is and what it does
This is a semi-solid, light brown cream-scrub that arrives finished and stable. The gritty texture comes from Juglans Regia (walnut) shell powder, while a blend of moisturising ingredients keeps skin from feeling stripped afterwards. Because it is a proper emulsion, it rinses cleanly and leaves a soft, conditioned finish rather than an oily film.
Key ingredients doing the work include sweet almond oil, jojoba seed oil, glycerine, shea butter and vitamin E (tocopheryl acetate), plus herbal extracts like licorice, calendula, manjishtha and ashwagandha. In plain terms, the walnut grit exfoliates and the oils and humectants soften and hydrate.
Who it suits
- Home users who want a simple weekly body scrub without mixing powders.
- DIY makers who want to add their own fragrance oil or essential oil and pot it up.
- Small brands and salons that need a consistent, ready base to label and sell — Azlok supplies it in packs from 500 g up to 25 kg.
How to use it
- Wet the skin in the shower or bath — warm water helps soften the surface.
- Scoop a small amount and massage in gentle circular motions over arms, legs, elbows, knees and feet.
- Work for 30 to 60 seconds; avoid heavy pressure, as the walnut grit does the buffing for you.
- Rinse thoroughly with warm water and pat dry.
- Follow with a body lotion or oil to seal in moisture.
Use it once or twice a week. Over-scrubbing can leave skin sensitive, so let your skin decide the frequency.
Customising the base
If you make your own products, you can stir in a skin-safe fragrance oil or a diluted essential oil for scent, or fold in a little extra brown sugar for a coarser feel. Add fragrance sparingly and keep to recommended usage levels, then patch-test the finished blend before selling or gifting it.
Safety notes
- For external use only. Do not swallow, and keep away from children.
- Face and neck: walnut grit can be too abrasive for delicate facial skin. Use on the body, or test very gently on the face at your own discretion.
- Avoid broken skin, active acne, sunburn or freshly shaved areas.
- Patch-test on your inner forearm 24 hours before first use, especially if your skin is reactive or you have added fragrance.
- Rinse if any product enters the eyes.
Buying and storage tips
Pick the pack that matches your use: 500 g and 1 kg are handy for home or trial batches, while 5 kg to 25 kg suit regular makers and small businesses. The base has a shelf life of around two years unopened.
- Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
- Keep the lid tightly closed to prevent water contamination.
- Use a clean, dry spoon each time rather than wet fingers, which helps the product last.
- If you decant or add ingredients, sanitise your containers and tools first.
FAQ
Is the Walnut Body Scrub Base ready to use?
Yes. It comes finished and stable, so you can apply it directly to damp skin, or add your own fragrance before potting it for retail.
Can I use it on my face?
It is designed as a body scrub. Walnut shell powder can be too coarse for facial skin, so most people keep it to the body. If you want to try it on the face, do so gently and infrequently.
How often should I scrub?
Once or twice a week is enough for most skin. Reduce frequency if your skin feels tight, red or sensitive.
Does it contain added fragrance?
The base is formulated without a strong added scent so you can customise it. Add a skin-safe fragrance or diluted essential oil at recommended levels if you want a signature aroma.
What sizes does Azlok offer?
It is available in 500 g, 1 kg, 5 kg, 10 kg, 20 kg and 25 kg packs, priced from ₹429, making it practical for both home use and commercial production.
