NEVER use this on your face! It is way too harsh and it would probably cut you and/or remove a layer of skin. That said, this stuff is amazing when used as a body scrub in the shower! I use this to exfoliate before shaving and it's wonderful. The smell is strong but pleasant, it's not perfume-y, it just smells clean. Like a mix of gentle soap, oatmeal, and a suggestion of citrus fruit. But NOT for your face!!!
Walnut shell powder is an incredibly strong physical exfoliant that is absolutely not appropriate to use on the delicate skin on your face. If you have this around, it is appropriate as a body scrub (I still would rather go with a sugar scrub), and especially it can probably not cause damage to calloused feet, but other than that, this is a terribly harsh product you should not purchase.
