If you have worked with our specially formulated body scrub (or if you just haven't gotten around to trying it just yet), here are some helpful hints to make this product work for you!
- Our traditional sugar scrub is emulsified. This means it is thick and pasty and less likely to leak from containers when shipped. It also means you may be unfamiliar with this type of texture as it is far different from oily, commercial scrub products. This product needs to be applied to damp (wet) skin to work effectively.
- Our scrubs can be customized from stock options listed on the respective product page. They can also be used "as is" if you prefer a fragrance-free product.
- NEVER add water to the container to thin this product as it will render the preservative ineffective and cause bacterial/microbial growth.
- Our emulsified scrubs rinse clean without an oily residue. Because our scrubs are emulsified, they will begin to break down when applied to wet skin. By rinsing with water, the scrub will liquify and disintegrate before washing down the drain. The emulsifiers break down the oils and make them water-soluble meaning no oily residue on your skin or in your tub/shower. Clean up is a cinch and most clients will not require additional cleansers or moisturizer after use.
Traditional sugar scrubs can be ordered with our original brown sugar formula or are now available with bleached (white) sugar. Our brown sugar scrub has a distinct molasses scent which may be noticeable when lighter scents are used. This is due to the natural scent of the light brown sugar that we use in the formula.
If you prefer an oil-free body scrub formula, we recommend our foaming sugar scrub which has a whipped soap base blended with white sugar.
