Glowing Skin Sugar Scrub
Restore Glowing Skin
Sugar scrubs are great way to moiturize, exfoliate dead cells, soften dry, flaky skin and restore the glow in your skin.
Coconut and jojoba both have powerful antioxidants, are excellent moisturizers to keep your skin soft, protected and hydrated specially during the cold and dry winter months. For best results, use sugar scrubs once a week in shower or bath massaging a handful on your skin and rinsing well. This recipe is gentle enough for both face and body so remember to massage gently around your face and other sensitive areas.
