Boticário Nativa SPA Morango Ruby Body Scrub – 97% Natural Ingredients – 6.17 oz (175 g)

Turn an ordinary shower into a spa ritual with the Nativa SPA Morango Ruby Body Scrub – 6.17 oz (175 g), a jewel-red exfoliating gel from O Boticário, Brazil's best-loved beauty house. Made in Brazil with 97% natural-origin ingredients, it sweeps away dull, dry surface skin and leaves the body feeling soft, smooth and velvety to the touch.

The ruby gel is filled with gentle exfoliating particles suspended in a rich, easy-to-rinse lather, and is enriched with Fragaria Vesca (Strawberry) Fruit Extract and Chenopodium Quinoa Seed Oil Ethyl Esters. It washes off cleanly with no greasy film, so skin feels fresh, comfortable and beautifully scented long after you step out.

The Morango Ruby fragrance is pure Brazilian gourmand: juicy strawberry sweetness contrasted with floral and woody notes that deodorize the skin. Note that this is the 175 g body scrub of the range — a different format from the Morango Ruby Body Lotion (200 ml and 400 ml). Use it 2 to 3 times a week, then follow with your lotion. Vegan formula, never tested on animals.

Key Features:

• Gentle Weekly Exfoliation: soft exfoliating particles buff away dead surface cells and impurities without scratching or stripping the skin.
• 97% Natural-Origin Ingredients: a vegan formula built around natural-origin components, from Brazil's largest beauty brand.
• Strawberry Extract & Quinoa Oil Esters: Fragaria Vesca fruit extract and Chenopodium Quinoa Seed Oil Ethyl Esters help skin look renewed and feel conditioned.
• Signature Morango Ruby Scent: sweet strawberry over floral and woody notes that deodorizes the skin and lingers softly after rinsing.
• Rinse-Clean Gel Texture: a lathering ruby gel that rinses off completely — no heavy or greasy after-feel.
• Velvety Soft Finish: skin is left visibly smoother and softer to the touch, the perfect canvas before body lotion.
• Authentic Brazilian Formula: 6.17 oz (175 g) tube produced in Brazil, cruelty-free and vegan.

How To Use

1. Step into the shower and dampen the skin with warm water.
2. Squeeze a generous amount of the scrub into your hands or onto a damp body cloth.
3. Massage over the body in gentle circular motions, spending a little extra time on rougher areas such as elbows, knees, heels and ankles.
4. Rinse thoroughly with warm water until no particles remain.
5. Pat dry and follow immediately with a body moisturizer.
6. Repeat 2 to 3 times per week. This is a body scrub — do not use it on the face.

Expert Tip: Exfoliate the evening before you plan to wear a self-tanner or a special outfit. Skin that has just been buffed and moisturized takes color more evenly and holds fragrance longer, so your Morango Ruby lotion or body splash smells better for longer.

Ingredients (Highlights)

• Fragaria Vesca (Strawberry) Fruit Extract: the signature active of the Morango Ruby line, a fruit extract that supports a fresh, renewed-looking skin surface.
• Chenopodium Quinoa Seed Oil Ethyl Esters: lightweight esters derived from quinoa seed oil that help skin feel conditioned, supple and velvety after rinsing.
• Glycerin: a classic humectant that draws water to the skin surface so exfoliation does not leave skin feeling tight.
• Methacrylic Acid/Ethyl Acrylate Copolymer: the exfoliating particles suspended in the gel, sized to buff the body gently and evenly.
• Decyl Glucoside & Lauryl Glucoside: mild sugar-derived cleansing agents that create the lather and lift away impurities.
• Cocamidopropyl Betaine: a soft co-surfactant that keeps the wash phase creamy and comfortable on the skin.

O Boticário began in 1977 as a small compounding pharmacy on Rua Saldanha Marinho in Curitiba, Paraná, where pharmacist Miguel Krigsner mixed his first formulas by hand. Today it is the largest beauty franchise in Brazil and one of the largest in the world, with thousands of stores and a portfolio of icons such as Nativa SPA, Cuide-se Bem and Malbec. The brand is certified cruelty-free — no O Boticário product is tested on animals — and it remains a family-founded Brazilian company that turned Curitiba know-how into a beauty language recognized across Latin America and beyond.

FAQ

Is this the body lotion or the scrub?

This is the Morango Ruby body scrub, a 6.17 oz (175 g) exfoliating gel in a tube. It is a different product and a different format from the Morango Ruby Body Lotion sold in 200 ml and 400 ml bottles. Many customers use the scrub 2–3 times a week and the lotion daily.

How often should I use a body scrub like this one?

Two to three times per week is the recommended rhythm. If your skin is on the sensitive or very dry side, start once a week and build up from there.

Can I use it on my face?

No. This is formulated for the body only. Facial skin is thinner and needs a scrub designed for it.

Will the red gel stain my shower, towels or skin?

The formula is a rinse-off gel and is not intended to tint the skin, but it is intensely pigmented. Rinse the shower floor after use and avoid leaving the product sitting on grout, light stone or fabric.

Is the packaging in Portuguese, and is it authentic?

Yes on both counts. Every unit is sourced in Brazil, exactly as sold there, so the tube is labeled in Portuguese. Full English ingredient and usage information is provided on this page.
