4 Ways to Maximize Your Sugar Scrub Experience

By

Sugar body scrubs can be revitalizing treats for the skin. Whether your skin is looking dried out or you just want to refresh your complexion, sugar scrubs are skincare products made to help. With a blend of nourishing and hydrating ingredients—plus sugar—they can start to refresh your skin in a matter of minutes. Want to get even more out of your sugar scrub? There are a few things you can do to give your scrub a bit more oomph. It all starts with ingredients in your sugar body scrub! 

 

Use a Sugar Body Scrub with More Than Just Sugar

Some traditional sugar body scrubs emphasize sugar over other ingredients. Some may even have very few other ingredients. These can be useful in certain situations, but if you're interested in revitalizing and refreshing your skin, look for scrubs with ingredients that essentially “give back.” As sugar exfoliates, ingredients like shea butter, cocoa butter, and mango butter can help infuse your skin with nourishment and hydration during exfoliation. You can even tickle your senses with an aromatic body scrub, like a vanilla and coconut body scrub. Aromas derived from their namesake sources can add an extra tantalizing dimension to your scrub session.

Use a Sugar Body Scrub Before Stepping into the Shower

There are all kinds of ways you can use your sugar scrub. You can hop in a hot shower, rinse off, and then scrub. This can be a great way to gently exfoliate your skin. When your skin is warm and damp (don’t exfoliate under running water!), the sugar gently exfoliates as it dissolves. However, if you want deeper exfoliation, using a sugar scrub on dry skin can be beneficial. Scrub before getting into the shower. That’s all there is to it! Rinse in the shower and continue your routine as usual.

Give ‘Rough Spots’ Extra Love

Elbows, knees, shoulders, and toes, you name it, we all have spots where our skin can use extra exfoliation. Elbows and knees, in particular, can feel rough and dry. As you exfoliate with a sugar scrub, give these spots extra attention. They may need extra body scrub to get the job done, but it can be worth the effort. If your elbows and knees need some additional scrub, do one scrub before getting into the shower and then a second once you’re in the shower and your skin is warm and damp.

Treat Your Freshly Exfoliated Skin to a Body Butter

Your sugar scrub experience doesn’t have to end once you’ve rinsed off. If you want to give your skin even more love, reach for body butter. A body butter made with some of the same ingredients—like shea, cocoa, and mango seed butters—can help treat your skin to even more nourishment and hydration. Think of it as a way to “lock in” the nourishment and hydration from the initial scrub session. That and more nourishment, hydration, and moisturization are always welcome!
