Why scrub your body with sugar?
Share
My sugar scrubs don't only sweeten you up, they smooth you over too. At least, that's what my babes tell me. Here are 5 things sugar scrubs are good for.
1. Less mess, less stress
My sugar scrubs melt onto your skin, leaving less of a clean-up in the shower and making them great for babes who need soft skin in a hurry. You've got places to be.
2. Softer skin, full stop
Sugar scrubs buff away dry and flaky patches, leaving your skin soft and nourished. While the sugar granules remove the top layer of dead skin cells, the natural oils in the formula moisturise your skin at the same time. Once your dead skin is done and dusted, follow up with a body moisturiser for an extra dose of hydration.
3. Sugar scrubs brighten your body
Sugar is a natural source of glycolic acid, which works to dissolve the bonds that hold dead skin cells together so you can wash them away and reveal brighter, more even skin. A two-for-one you didn't know you needed.
4. Built-in hydration
Sugar is a natural humectant, which means it draws moisture from its surroundings to hydrate your skin. Moisturise after scrubbing for the full effect. A sugar scrub will never strip your skin. Only your clothes.
5. A gentle touch
Sugar scrubs are a gentle option if you're feeling a little sensitive. Sugar particles are smaller than salt granules, so they're less abrasive on reactive skin. A sweet treat that leaves you smooth AF.
My sugar scrubs worth knowing about: the Rosehip Body Scrub & Cleanser, the In Your Dreams Sleep Scrub & Soak, and the Niacinamide Body Scrub. Because every coffee needs a bit of sugar, and every babe needs a bit of me.
