Matter of Lifestyle Gives Insight to the Benefits of Body Scrubs
Body Scrubs! What’s so popular and trendy about body scrubs? What are they designed to do? How often should I use the scrub? What are the best types of scrub, Sugar Scrub or Sea Salt Scrub? These are a select few of the many questions I receive about Body Scrubs
Body Scrubs exfoliates and moisturizes the skin. As we age, skin cells renew themselves slower. Body Scrubs aides in removing dead skin cells to reveal fresh, soft, and youthful skin.
Sugar vs. Sea Salt?
It boils down to personal choice and the intended results. They both are excellent exfoliate. Sugar scrubs are gentler and sometimes the preferred method of beginning “Scrubbers” and people with sensitive skin. Sugar Scrubs leaves the skin less drying and helps to protect the skin against harmful toxins and the preferred scrub for the face. Sea Salt increases circulation, relaxes muscles, tightens the skin, in addition to the salts helping to open pores and draw out toxins. No matter which scrub you choose, you should never use on irritated skin.
Learn to listen to your skin. Your skin will tell you the frequency of how often you should use the Scrub. A weekly scrub is good place to start, but if you find you want more it is ok give your body a scrub 2 or 3 times a week.
It is recommend you use the scrub in the shower or tub. Wet the skin first. There is no need to apply a lot of pressure when using your scrub, let the ingredients do the work. Use circular motions and rinse. Too much pressure will scratch your skin.
Looks for scrubs that does not add preservatives. Scrubs with essential oils added not only have beneficial qualities but also acts as a natural preservative.
