Body scrubs are a great way to make your skin glow. A sugar scrub is an exfoliating body scrub that can help remove dead skin cells and wash away impurities from the surface of your skin, leaving it feeling soft and smooth. If you have sensitive skin, try a body scrub with coconut oil as its base ingredient; this natural oil helps nourish and moisturize the skin without making it too oily. It also helps make sure that the scrub works its way deep down into your pores, helping to remove buildup and give you glowing skin. For those with oily skin, opt for a more abrasive body scrub to help clear away excess oils, dirt, and grime. With regular use of a body scrub, you’ll be sure to get glowing skin in no time!

Our body needs care as much as our face, one should never neglect the skin that one wears. Like every skin surface, your body skin surface also needs exfoliation. Scrubbing your entire body with a body scrub provides the following advantages:

• Dead skin cells are removed. Thus, leaving a fresh and softer layer of skin behind.

• It prevents ingrown hair layer formation. This makes the hair removal process much smoother.

• With all these factors it goes without saying that if mixed with the right ingredients like scented body oils or herbs, it provides a very relaxing feeling. Moreover, a new outlook in the confines of your bathroom.

Which is better a body scrub or a body polish?

It totally depends on the requirement of the user as both body scrub and body polish have their own utility. A body scrub is done when we need to remove dead and flaky cells from the skin layer whereas a body polish is done for preparing the new cells for processes like tanning. A body scrub not only brings up a fresh layer of skin but also cleans the old dead cells from the surface of the skin.

A good body scrub increases blood circulation while opening the pores of the skin. In simple words, it can be said that a body scrub is done to prevent tanning while body polish is done for preserving the tanning. A body polish is a foam-based treatment whereas a body scrub is an oil-based treatment and the oil helps to retain the moisture of the skin by forming a layer over it, using essential oils with a good combination of herbs can result in an enticing experience as well. So any day a body scrub is a way better option than a body polish. Prevention or shielding can never top rejuvenation and nourishment.

Based on user liking and skin type requirements some scrubs are :

1. Sugar Body Scrubs

As the name suggests these body scrubs are sugar-based scrubs. Generally, brown sugar is used for scrubbing but regardless of the type of sugar, the purpose remains the same.
