Spring is just around the corner and what better way to celebrate than a floral inspired body scrub! This sugar scrub gently exfoliates as it cleanses and leaves your skin feeling clean, soft and glowing! Use 1-2 times per week or 3-4 times in dryer climates to keep skin soft and moisturized. Sugar removes and fights toxins, is anti-aging and makes your skin glow.
How to use… In the shower or bath, scoop 1-2 teaspoons of scrub and rub into your skin in a circular motion. The sugar will exfoliate and then melt away in the warm water. Rinse off completely.
