This Monday we will be discussing Sugar Scrubs

What exactly is a sugar scrub and why should I use it?

A sugar scrub is a buffer that will gently smooth away dry skin, leaving you with a moisturized new layer. A benefit of using a scrub is the increase in circulation that you will receive through the gentle motion. Also important to the scrub are its ingredients, we use a variety of oils, vitamins, and paraben free preservatives, all of which will keep your skin fresh and moisturized. It is best to use a scrub before tanning, or when you notice the appearance of a dry layer of skin, this happens when your skin is weather worn and the seasons start to change. Using a scrub will keep your skin healthy and soft, especially in the hot summer and cold winter.

Our scrubs are handmade on site, in our Port Huron, Michigan, location, by our body care artisans.

Now that you know why you should use a sugar scrub, you can have some fun with making it personal. Imagine a sugar scrub made of the sweetest of pink vanilla. Not only will you smell delish, but you will be moisturized with natural oils and skin loving Vitamin E.

What, you don’t like sweet “girly” fragrances? Well how about, Rosemary Mint, Lilac, Oatmeal, Milk, and Honey, or the earthy Patchouli? There is definitely a fragrance for you as we currently offer 19 different fragrances, and with each fragrance you will receive the benefits of a truly invigorating, yet gentle exfoliation.
