Becky vs. Buttface: An Honest Comparison of Two Butt-Skincare Brands

Updated September 2026

Becky or Buttface: which should you buy? Both brands make a physical butt scrub, but they're built differently. Becky is a single 2 oz walnut shell scrub for $24.95, while Buttface sells a volcanic-sand scrub ($32) as part of a wider lineup (a hypochlorous acid mist, a firming cream and sheet masks), with its three-product Back & Butt Facial set listed at $90. Pick Becky if you want one simple exfoliating step; pick Buttface if you want a multi-product routine from one brand.

This comparison is written by the team that makes Becky, so weigh it accordingly. Buttface prices and ingredients below are as listed on buttface.com in September 2026. Their prices change with sales, so check before you buy.

What's the difference between Becky and Buttface?

How do they exfoliate?

Both scrubs are physical exfoliants: you massage them on and rinse off. Becky uses walnut shell powder plus gentle plant-derived cleansers, so it cleans as you scrub; Buttface's Resurfacer uses volcanic sand. Neither is an acid exfoliant. Both brands do use white willow bark extract, a plant source of salicin: Becky in its scrub, Buttface in its firming cream.

If you're deciding between a scrub and a chemical exfoliant (lactic, glycolic or salicylic acid), the American Academy of Dermatology says people with dry, sensitive or acne-prone skin may prefer a mild chemical exfoliant, since mechanical exfoliation can be too irritating, while people with oily, thicker skin may do well with a scrub. Whichever you choose: light pressure, small circles for about 30 seconds, lukewarm water, moisturizer after.

What else does Buttface make?

This is where the brands really differ. Becky makes one product. Buttface also sells:

• The Anti-Funk ($26): a fragrance-free hypochlorous acid mist.
• The BBL Firming Cream ($42): a daily cream with peptides, white willow bark, shea butter, jojoba and macadamia oils, used morning and night.
• The Butt Mask ($13, or a 4-pack): a two-piece hydrogel sheet mask with centella, green tea and licorice root extracts.

Which is better value?

They're different purchases, so compare what you'd actually use:

• Just a scrub: Becky $24.95 (one small scoop per use, about 60+ uses per jar) vs. Buttface Resurfacer $32.
• A full routine: Becky plus a drugstore moisturizer vs. Buttface's $90 three-product set.

Becky ships free in the US on orders over $35, so the $44.95 Duo gets you free shipping.

Pick Becky if:

• You want one product, not a system
• Your goal is butt skin that feels smoother and softer
• You'd rather choose your own moisturizer or medicated wash
• You want to try butt care for $24.95 before committing to more

Pick Buttface if:

• You like multi-step routines and will actually do them
• You want a mist, firming cream or sheet masks alongside your scrub
• You'd rather buy everything from one brand
• A longer guarantee window matters to you

Can you use Becky and Buttface together?

You don't need both scrubs. They do the same job, and doubling up on physical exfoliation is a fast route to irritation. If you like Becky but want to add a Buttface leave-on product like the cream or mist, patch test first and give your skin a few days to show how it reacts before adding anything else.

The honest take

Buttface has built a thoughtful range, and if you want a full butt-care system from one place, it's a reasonable choice. For most people starting out, one gentle scrub a few times a week plus a moisturizer is a simpler, cheaper place to begin, and that's what Becky is for. Comparing more options?

FAQ

Is Buttface a chemical exfoliant?

Its scrub isn't. The Butt Resurfacer uses volcanic sand. Its firming cream contains white willow bark extract, a plant source of salicin, but it isn't sold as an exfoliant.

Which is better for sensitive skin?

We can't honestly say either scrub is gentler for everyone. Both brands say their products are fragrance-free, and the AAD notes that scrubs can be too irritating for dry, sensitive or acne-prone skin. Patch test, start once a week, and see our sensitive-skin butt routine.

Which is better for darker skin tones?

Either can work if you're gentle. The AAD advises avoiding strong chemical or mechanical exfoliation if you have a darker skin tone or get dark spots easily. Light pressure, not too often.

Can I just use face products on my butt?

You can, but face products are usually priced for a much smaller area. A body-sized product tends to be better value.

The bottom line

Becky and Buttface both make physical butt scrubs. Becky is one simple $24.95 scrub; Buttface is a broader system with a $32 scrub and a $90 three-product set. Choose based on how many steps you'll actually stick with.
