sugar scrubs?

girls

i was looking on the net for some skin remedies and found a lot of stuff about Sugar Scrubs

seems like they can be home made or you can get them from stores

honestly i had not heard about them..

has anyone used them?

any details and personal experiences…

Re: sugar scrubs?

have only seen and heard abt them but not used them...

Re: sugar scrubs?

Maham it seems like they are really good for exfoliating and specially to make your skin soft (like for your hands and feet and body)

Re: sugar scrubs?

thats kool! maybe i wl try one too :) tx.

Re: sugar scrubs?

I personally would just use it on my hands and feet but never my face..its just too sticky!

Re: sugar scrubs?

Brown sugar is more suitable for the face since it is soft and not as abrasive as white sugar. for the body I think either one is fine. Mixing olive oil in brown sugar is a great scrub.

Re: sugar scrubs?

There is one i loveit,s by philosophy..i think it,s olive oil and sugar..and smells heavenly..!

Re: sugar scrubs?

CAN MAKE IT AT HOME BUT BE CAREFULL

Re: sugar scrubs?

i recently had a facial and the lady used a sugar scrub, it felt sooo good and my skin was softer afterwards. wasn't messy either

Re: sugar scrubs?

I use the aromatherapy ones as well as the regualar ones by Bath and Body and I love the aromatherapy ones, they have bigger sugar crystals. I only use it on my feet though so not sure how suitable they are for facial skin or others parts of the body.

Re: sugar scrubs?

i make mine by using plain white sugar and adding lemon juice to it. it leaves the hands really really soft.

Re: sugar scrubs?

ive seen in bath&body brown sugar face scrub. my friend uses it and says its real good.

hmm what do u exactly do? u mix sugar in lemon juice.... so hmm does sugar dissolve in the lemon or not? n for how long shd i scrub using this sugar n lemon scrub?
n can this scrub be used on face too?

don't use the sugar you get in pakistan for this :D those are huge crystals. the sugar we get in NA is finer. still not fine enough but it works.

yeah all i do is add a few drops of lemon juice to the sugar. enough so it makes almost like a paste. the sugar doesn't dissolve. don't let it sit though. just make enough of it to use it when you need it. as for scrubbing, just as long as you normally use a scrub for. don't scrub hard or for too long though. and i wouldn't recommend it for the face unless either you grind it or use brown sugar like someone said.

Re: sugar scrubs?

never heard or used:hmmm:

but will give it a try

I make my own sugar scrub for the face and body and use it once a week. add honey, fine sugar or brown sugar and a little bit of extra virgin olive oil... i never really measure it so i can't tell you the measurements...I love how it leaves my skin so soft!! but just make sure you are very gentle on your face... DO NOT scrub your face...

thxxxx i'll grind the sugar n use it
thxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

hmmm ok i'll scrub my face smoothly....... what good is scrub for anyways?

Re: sugar scrubs?

^^

It's an exfoliator that will help remove any dead skin cells on the surface of your skin... you should have smoother skin afterwards...I do't know you might be able to find a product in the market that works better for you... but i find that using a home made sugar scrub doesn't irritate my skin like other products

Also,after exfoliating i usually like to use a mask to remove any dirt build up from my face and follow it with a good moisturizer...

Hope this helps :)

thanku :slight_smile:
