Types of body scrubs
Most body scrubs that are available tend to be made with exfoliating particles in the scrub that are
meant to help enhance the exfoliating benefits. The problem is that many of these exfoliating particles
aren’t particularly gentle on the skin. Most of the scrubs that can be purchased in retail stores typically
are made with harmful ingredients such as salt, sugar and nuts shells. Somebody scrubs will even
contain harmful chemicals such as glycolic acid which can help improve blemishes, but may aggravate
certain skin types.
If you have sensitive skin or want to avoid harmful chemicals, then making your own homemade body
scrub may be the solution for you. Most homemade body scrubs will contain all-natural ingredients
such as honey, oil, oatmeal, coffee or essential oils. Each recipe can be crafted to benefit any skin type.
