Why should you exfoliate?
Exfoliation is one of the most important steps in your skin care routine for getting rid of dead, dry and flaky skin. A natural facial exfoliant works to remove dry and dead skin from the skin's surface by gently scrubbing away any flaky bits to leave you with fresh, glowing baby-soft skin. Natural facial scrubs use tiny granules to buff away that dry skin and help stimulate blood flow and cell regeneration, all while giving you the deepest possible clean. While it's great to exfoliate your skin year round, exfoliation can be particularly important in winter as both the cool wind and artificial heating from air conditioning can dry out our skin and exacerbate other skin conditions such as breakouts or mild forms of eczema.
Why use a Sugar scrub?
You can possibly damage the delicate skin on your face by exfoliating with the wrong product or too often. Sharp or coarse granules of Pumice, Walnuts or Apricot Shell, which are often found in body scrubs, can actually leave the face red and irritated when used on the delicate complexion. This is why there are scrubs and exfoliators formulated for either the face or body! Natural sugar scrubs work to gently and carefully remove dry, dead skin cells and build up instead of rubbing your skin raw. They're also so easy to remove too! Just splash your face with water after you're done and the sugar crystals will dissolve away.
How to use a natural Sugar scrub
Sugar scrubs start off firm, and when combined with water, dissolve into finer and finer particles to penetrate and dislodge the deepest congestion within the pores of our skin. With each treatment, the face can be transformed from a dull complexion to a glowing one! Results include visibly refined texture as well as reduced appearance of pore size that feels remarkably smooth to touch.Sugar scrubs are also ideal for skin that experiences the odd breakout, helping to unclog pores by removing build-up on the skin's surface. To use, place a small amount of scrub into your palm and partially dissolve with a little bit of water, then apply to face and massage in until completely dissolved. Splash your face with warm water and remove residue with a dampened muslin cloth.
