Sugar scrubs are delightful concoctions that you slather all over you bod while you're in the shower. The granules of sugar lightly exfoliate your skin — aka they slough off dead skin cells that are causing your arms, legs, and everywhere else to feel like sandpaper. Not the vibe we're going for!
These scrubs are usually mixed with a variety of other delightful ingredients, like moisturizing oils, salt or coffee grounds, plus essential oils to leave you feeling soft 'n' smelling yummy. You can even find soap that doubles as a scrub so you can keep the steps in your shower routine to a minimum. How's that for multitasking?
Sugar scrubs and salt scrubs are two sides of the same coin. Both have massive physical exfoliating properties to make your skin silky soft, and both are generally made with other awesome ingredients like plant oils — and sometimes, you'll find a scrub that uses sugar and salt.
And that's really the difference between two. Sugar scrubs use sugar to exfoliate your skin while salt scrubs use salt. Both scrubs will soften your skin and prep you for moisturizing lotions or your favorite plant oil, so which one you choose is really a matter of preference.
Just the skin on your body needs a little help shedding dead skin cells sometimes, so does your face! There are a couple ways you can exfoliate your visage — chemical exfoliation and physical exfoliation.
Physical exfoliation uses things like sugar, salt, or some other type of physical exfoliator to remove skin cells from your face. Chemical exfoliants use acids, like AHAs or BHAs, to remove dead skin from your face. Check out our guide to exfoliating your face and body for more info on the wide world of exfoliation.
