Notes
To use: Gently rub the body scrub onto the skin and rinse off with warm water.
- Limit use of body scrubs to 1-2 times a week. Exfoliating is fantastic for your skin, but doing so too often can leave it raw, red, and damaged.
- Don't forget to moisturize after using body scrub! I like to use homemade whipped body butter and DIY face cream.
- For sensitive skin, I advise using a finer salt type. This is to avoid over-scrubbing already delicate skin, which may lead to skin injury. You may also try making a homemade whipped sugar scrub for sensitive skin.
- It's always a good idea to perform a patch test before using a new product, especially if you have sensitive or allergy-prone skin.
- Avoid using the scrub on open wounds or sunburned skin.
