Aapri is a classic skincare brand best known for its apricot-based facial washes and gentle exfoliating formulas. The Aapri range is designed to lift away dead skin cells, remove daily impurities and leave the complexion brighter, smoother and more refreshed, making it a popular choice for everyday cleansing routines.
What Is Aapri Skincare?
Aapri focuses on simple, effective facial care using ground apricot kernels, apricot kernel oil and supporting ingredients such as aloe vera and Vitamin E. These formulations work together to polish the skin’s surface, help unclog pores and maintain softness without relying on overly harsh detergents or aggressive acids.
The hero product in the range is the Aapri Refresh Apricot Facial Wash, a daily exfoliating cleanser that removes dirt, oil and make-up while leaving the skin feeling clean and smooth rather than stripped. Aapri also sits alongside other everyday skincare options in Welzo’s broader Skincare Products collection, giving customers the freedom to mix and match cleansers, toners and moisturisers.
Benefits and Features of Aapri Products
Aapri formulations are designed to balance effective cleansing with a gentle skin feel. Key benefits include:
-
Gentle physical exfoliation – finely ground apricot kernels help buff away dead skin cells and surface debris.
-
Deep but comfortable cleanse – removes daily build-up of dirt, oil and pollution from the pores.
-
Smoother, softer feel – regular use can improve skin texture and help makeup sit more evenly.
-
Brightening effect – by clearing away dull surface cells, the complexion appears fresher and more radiant.
-
Hydrating support – ingredients such as aloe vera and Vitamin E help maintain moisture balance.
Many users find that Aapri works well as a main cleanser within a simple routine, or as an exfoliating step paired with a more neutral face wash from collections like Cleansing Face Washes or hydrating creams from Face Moisturisers.
Why Choose Aapri for Your Skincare Routine?
Everyday life exposes the skin to environmental pollutants, sweat, oil and cosmetic residue. If this build-up is not effectively removed, pores can appear enlarged, the complexion can look dull and skincare products may not absorb as well as they should. Gentle, regular exfoliation is therefore a key part of many modern skincare routines.
Aapri’s apricot-based approach offers:
- A tactile, “polished” clean that many people find satisfying.
- A straightforward ingredient story that focuses on tried-and-tested cleansing agents.
- A way to refresh tired or congested skin without complicated routine layering.
People with blemish-prone or oily skin sometimes combine Aapri with more targeted solutions found in the Medication for Acne collection, using Aapri as a complementary cleanser a few times a week.
How to Use Aapri Products
The best way to incorporate Aapri into your routine depends on your skin type and how much exfoliation you can tolerate. General guidance includes:
-
Wet the face with lukewarm water
Avoid very hot water, which can irritate or dry out the skin.
-
Apply a small amount of product
For the Aapri Refresh Apricot Facial Wash, use a pea-sized amount in the palm of your hand and gently massage onto the face in circular motions, avoiding the delicate eye area.
-
Be gentle with pressure
Let the product do the work; pressing too hard can over-exfoliate and cause redness, especially on sensitive or thin skin.
-
Rinse thoroughly
Wash away all residue with lukewarm water and pat the skin dry with a clean towel.
-
Follow with toner and moisturiser
After cleansing, many people apply a balancing toner from the Face Toners collection and then a hydrating product from Face & Skin Moisturisers.
Most normal or combination skin types can use Aapri several times a week; oilier skin may tolerate daily use, while very sensitive skin might prefer it only once or twice a week alongside a gentler cleanser from Micellar Water Skincare.

Expert Insight and Skin-Type Guidance
Exfoliating cleansers like Aapri can help smooth the skin and improve radiance, but the ideal frequency depends on individual tolerance. Dermatology guidance generally suggests:
- Normal/combination skin: 2–4 times per week.
- Oily or thickened skin: often daily use is tolerated, especially in the T-zone.
- Dry or sensitive skin: 1–2 times per week, alternating with very gentle or fragrance-free cleansers.
If redness, stinging or flaking occurs, it is usually a sign to reduce frequency, increase moisturiser use or switch to milder options such as those in the Micellar Water Skincare or Cetaphil Skincare collections.

Customer Reviews and Experiences
Customers often describe Aapri as leaving their skin feeling deeply cleansed yet comfortable, with many noting an improvement in smoothness and a reduction in visible dullness after regular use. Individual responses vary with skin type; users with more sensitive complexions usually benefit from starting slowly and adjusting frequency based on how their skin feels over time.
Aapri Skincare FAQs
Is Aapri suitable for sensitive skin?
Aapri uses gentle exfoliating particles, but it is still a scrub-style cleanser. People with very sensitive or reactive skin may find it a little too active for daily use. In that case, limit usage to once or twice a week and rely on milder cleansers such as those in the Micellar Water Skincare range on other days.
Can I use Aapri every day?
Many normal or oily skin types can use Aapri daily without issue, especially if followed with a good moisturiser from the Moisturisers collection. If you notice tightness, dryness or redness, reduce usage to a few times per week.
Does Aapri help with blackheads and clogged pores?
The exfoliating action helps lift away surface dead cells and debris, which can make pores appear clearer over time. For stubborn blackheads or acne-prone skin, it can be helpful to combine Aapri with dedicated anti-blemish treatments from Medication for Acne under the guidance of a healthcare professional.
Should I use Aapri before or after makeup removal?
If you wear heavy or long-wear makeup, it is often best to remove it first using a cleansing oil, micellar water or a product from Cleansing Face Washes, and then follow with Aapri as your exfoliating second cleanse.
What should I apply after using Aapri?
After rinsing and gently drying the face, apply a toner if desired from Face Toners, followed by a moisturiser that suits your skin type from Moisturisers. This helps lock in hydration and supports the skin barrier after exfoliation.
