Soap isn’t the only way to clean and hydrate your skin. A popular trend that has emerged over the last few years is body scrubs. A body scrub or body polish is a great way to clean, exfoliate and hydrate your skin. When rubbed into the skin vigorously, it sloughs off dry, dead skin and when rinsed away, it leaves a moisturized layer of fresh, clean and soft skin.
Body scrubs are a great way to avoid ingrown hairs and the rubbing action also helps drain your lymph nodes by increasing blood flow to the skin’s surface. Check out this recipe for a lovely floral Rose Scrub.
