So what is a sugar body scrub?
Sugar body scrubs are used to exfoliate, cleanse and nourish the skin. They increase circulation while softening and smoothing your skin, imparting a healthy radiant glow. Exfoliation removes the dead skin cells and surface dirt allowing your skin to function more efficiently and absorb more moisture. This encourages new cell growth and improves the appearance of the skin. However too much vigorous rubbing can irritate the skin so don't overdo it, start gently. Ideally you should exfoliate about once a week.

How to use a sugar body scrub.
It is best start with a nice clean body. Have a shower or bath first. There is no need to towel off, the sugar scrub goes nicely onto damp skin. The oil in the scrub will seal in the moisture to your skin. Give the jar of sugar scrub a good stir and spoon some into a small bowl or cup. You can scoop it right out of the jar but you will need to stir it again. Stand in your bathtub, shower or lay a towel somewhere comfortable. Gently rub the sugar scrub over your body being carefully not to get any in your eyes. Pay extra attention to less sensitive areas, especially where the skin is rough; such as your feet and elbows. Feel your skin come alive. When you are finished have a quick rinse off in the shower to remove the sugar bits, there is no need to use any soap. Don't rub too hard as you want to leave as much of the oils in place as possible to work their magic.
If you are lucky enough to do this with a friend take turns pampering each other. Each jar contains enough for approximately 5 to 10 whole body scrubs, depending on your body size.
If you like your scrub a little more oily just more of our infused organic, cold pressed, extra virgin, oils (Lavender and Calendula). If you prefer a drier scrub add more organic sugar.
