What are the benefits of using a regular sugar body scrub?

It’s cold outside. I have walked into my home and I felt like warming up and keeping dry inside my home. If this is your thought too, then you may like to try my Cinnamon Sugar Body Scrub.

What goes into Cinnamon Sugar Scrub?

Australian Brown Sugar

Sugar is a humectant, so it draws moisture to your skin.

Australian brown sugar has a nice grain size so it’s a perfect, gentle exfoliant. It helps to reduce ingrown hairs that you may experience after hair removal. Regular gentle exfoliation helps to remove dead skin cells from the top layer of skin. Our skin changes all the time. It's good to revitalise your skin by using a regular sugar scrub.

It takes a few tablespoons per bath or shower to make your skin feel smooth, fresh and radiant. A small amount goes a long way in making your skin feel revitalised.

Use it after a hard day’s work in the garden. Massage away grime and dirt while you cleanse rough and dirty hands.

Glycolic Acid, found in sugar, is an AHA or alpha-hydroxy acid. AHA is renowned for its exfoliating properties and for smoothing the skin. AHA’s can work wonders on skin. It occurs in nature and is safe to use. Sugar is gentle on skin and brightens skin tone. An effective exfoliant allows new cells to pop through. Old cells go to reveal plump skin.

As well there are no nasty microbeads in my Cinnamon Sugar Scrub. Single use plastics wash into the waterways to pollute and damage our fish life.

Grapeseed and Wheatgerm oils

I use cosmetic grade Grapeseed and Wheatgerm oils in my Cinnamon Sugar Scrub. Both help to plump and moisturise skin. The germ or seed of cosmetic grade oils are like the heart of the botanical plant. It’s where new growth and life emerges from in the plant. The botanical oils concentrated nutrients become available to you in your skincare. Wheatgerm oil contains vitamin E and is high in omega chain fatty acids. Grapeseed oil is high in fatty acids, vitamins C and E and antioxidants.

Cinnamon

Fine ground cinnamon provides gentle exfoliation while you bathe or shower. It has a warm, empowering smell. Imagine cinnamon toast! In Ayurvedic medicine cinnamon is a tonic for the heart. Cinnamon has antibacterial and antioxidant properties.

Cinnamon helps to:

• prevent and fight skin infections including eczema
• improve the quality and texture of the skin

Pure essential oils

My tranquil blend of essential oils includes:

• Mandarin
• Certified Organic Eucalyptus Radiata
• Lemongrass
• Cardamom and
• Peppermint

I love to use a mix of uplifting essential oils in my Cinnamon Sugar Scrub. It’s true that essential oils are powerful. It only takes a few drops to smell the scent and when the pouch is open a beautiful aroma will come to your senses. Essential oils are the essence of the fragrance of the plant.

Cinnamon Sugar Body Scrub is very easy to apply while you have a bath or shower. Place a few tablespoons onto your body and gently massage in a circular motion. Use an organic cotton face cloth moistened with warm water to gently remove from your body. And smell the aroma and your newly moisturised skin. Best of all it’s fast to use and smells gorgeous. Gentle body exfoliation and hydration is the job it does best.
