Aromatherapy and The Many Benefits of Our Signature Moisturizing Body Scrubs

Moisturizing Body Scrub

When it comes to achieving radiant, smooth skin, our moisturizing scrubs are one of the best tools you can add to your skincare routine. If you’re looking for a product that not only exfoliates but also deeply nourishes your skin, scrubs like ours, made with powerhouse ingredients like sugar, jojoba oil, essential oils, shea butter and coconut oil is a game-changer. Our jojoba oil, shea butter and coconut oil are all premium organic and unrefined ensuring you are getting the very best from each application from their nutrient packed properties. Let's dive into the specific skin benefits of using an aromatherapy based moisturizing body sugar scrub and why these natural ingredients are the perfect combination for healthy, glowing skin.

Why a Sugar Scrub?

Unlike harsher exfoliants, sugar scrubs are gentle enough for all skin types while still being effective at removing dead skin cells. Sugar granules naturally dissolve in water, making them less abrasive than other exfoliants, which means you get soft, smooth skin without irritation. Plus, sugar contains glycolic acid, which helps promote cell turnover, keeping your skin fresh and rejuvenated.

The Magic of Jojoba Oil:

Jojoba oil is one of our key ingredients that makes our sugar scrub so deeply moisturizing. Unrefined oils are the most desired; as the minimal processing ensures they are the highest quality, nutrient-rich and most authentic-to-nature oil. Unrefined jojoba oil closely mimics the natural oils (or sebum) produced by your skin, which (in part) makes it incredibly hydrating without clogging pores.

Benefits of Jojoba Oil:

• Non-greasy Moisturization: Jojoba oil hydrates your skin deeply without leaving a greasy residue, making it perfect for both oily and dry skin types.

• Balances Skin: Whether your skin is too dry or too oily, jojoba oil helps balance oil production, leaving your skin with the perfect moisture level.

• Antioxidant Power: Rich in vitamin E, jojoba oil is full of antioxidants that help protect your skin from environmental stressors like pollution and UV exposure.

  
  

By incorporating jojoba oil into our sugar scrub, your skin not only gets exfoliated but also receives lasting hydration, leaving it soft, supple, sheer and glowing long after use.

Essential Oils: A Burst of Aromatherapy and Skin Benefits

Adding our signature blends of essential oils to our scrubs can provide both mental and physical benefits. Depending on the scent chosen, your sugar scrub can do everything from soothing, moisturizing and exfoliating your skin to uplifting, relaxing and rejuvenating your mood.

Essential Oil Skin Benefits: (we have chosen a few of the oils throughout our blends to highlight for you)

• Roman Chamomile Essential Oil: Roman Chamomile essential oil has long been a top choice for managing sensitive skin. It helps reduce redness, hyperpigmentation and inflammation while soothing irritated skin and promoting relaxation of mind and body - helping relieve stress, insomnia and even migraines. You can find Roman Chamomile essential oil in our Dream Moisturizing Body Scrub as well as our Aura Moisturizing Body Scrub.

• ·Sweet Orange Essential Oil: Maintains the health, appearance and texture of skin by promoting clarity, radiance and smoothness. It is also known to increase blood flow while brightening your complexion (helping to reduce dark &/or red spots through its high content of vitamin C). It may also promote cell regeneration while helping to minimize enlarged pores and firm skin. You can find Sweet Orange essential oil in our Motion Moisturizing Body Scrub as well as our Uplift Moisturizing Body Scrub.

• ·Blue Lotus Essential Oil: Considered, for centuries, as a sacred symbol of creation and rebirth, Blue Lotus essential oil helps moisturize dull, dry and dehydrated skin while balancing natural oil production. It can fight signs of inflammation, support soft, supple, radiant skin texture and fight against harmful free radicals – helping to prevent dark spots, wrinkles and fine lines from developing. Blue Lotus has also been known to calm and sooth irritated skin due to its content of natural alkaloids. As if that wasn’t enough, it boasts an incredible elevated scent profile and contains compounds that are known to instill a sense of pleasure and calm with each use. You can find Blue Lotus essential oil in our Good Vibes Moisturizing Body Scrub.

• Neroli Essential Oil:  Neroli is often used in formulations to help encourage improved skin tone and texture while calming and reducing skin inflammation. It can encourage the regeneration of skin cells, aiding in the reduction of the appearance of stretch marks, scar tissue and general discoloration (including sunspots, acne scaring and rosacea). Some evidence suggests it may also aid in boosting one’s mood, reducing the effects of stress, depression, anxiety and high blood pressure. When inhaled, Neroli essential oil may help the brain release serotonin, and reduce levels of cortisol. Some evidence has shown that when mixed with massage (such as when used within one of our moisturizing body scrubs), Neroli can have an even more positive effect on mood than when used as aromatherapy alone. You can find Neroli essential oil in our Aura Moisturizing Body Scrub.

Essential oils enhance your sugar scrub experience by promoting healthy skin while also giving you a moment of aromatherapeutic bliss with every use.

Shea Butter: Deep Nourishment for Lasting Hydration

Shea butter is a deeply hydrating ingredient that adds a luxurious, creamy texture to our sugar scrubs. It’s rich in fatty acids, as well as vitamins A and E which nourish and protect the skin, leaving it soft and smooth, helping make it one of the most effective natural moisturizers available.

Benefits of Shea Butter:

• Deep Moisturization: Shea butter penetrates deeply into the skin, providing lasting hydration. Shea butter is ideal for moisture retention long after usage.

• Skin Soother: If you suffer from dry, flaky, or irritated skin, shea butter helps soothe and calm irritation, leaving your skin smooth, healthy and with a radiant glow.

• Collagen Boost: Packed with vitamin A, shea butter supports your skin’s natural collagen production, helping to keep your skin looking youthful and firm.

• Hyperpigmentation Reduction: Shea butter naturally contains hyaluronic acid which has been shown to help reduce the appearance of dark spots, hydrating the skin and reducing inflammation.

• Tighten Skin: Shea butter is reported to aid in tissue cell regeneration and has been shown to boost collagen production, which has been known to play a role in firming the skin.

Using a sugar scrub with shea butter ensures that your skin not only feels soft immediately after exfoliating but stays hydrated and nourished long after usage.

Coconut Oil: A Luxurious Boost of Moisture and Protection

Coconut oil is another key ingredient in our moisturizing sugar scrubs. Known for its ability to lock in moisture and protect the skin, coconut oil makes sure your exfoliation process is as hydrating as it is rejuvenating.

Benefits of Coconut Oil:

• Locks in Moisture: Coconut oil creates a protective barrier on your skin, locking in moisture and preventing dryness.

• Healing Properties: Coconut oil contains ingredients such as lauric and capric acid which are ideal and known for their antimicrobial and healing properties, helping your skin stay healthy and free from infections.

• Rich in Fatty Acids: These nourish and hydrate the skin deeply, making it a great solution for those with rough patches or extremely dry skin.

• Reduce Signs of Aging: As one of the benefits of coconut oil for skin is that it helps to increase the natural production of collagen, this helps to improve skin elasticity for firmer skin making fine lines and wrinkles are less likely to appear.

  
  

These are just a few of many of the benefits of Incorporating coconut oil into our sugar scrubs to ensure your skin feels soft, smooth and deeply moisturized.
