First of all, if you’ve never made a homemade vanilla brown sugar body scrub then you are missing out.One thing to note: If the scrub gets caught on the tub’s rim, it can be difficult to screw on and off. She has “very sensitive skin that does not take kindly to most things” and yet experienced no irritation when using this one. We often used it before shaving since we found that the scrub helped us achieve a much closer shave than just shaving cream alone.

The fragrance-free variant is a great choice for sensitive skin, though it also comes in sandalwood and eucalyptus scents (a perfect choice for a spa-like ambiance in the shower). But exfoliating is even more imperative when you’re dealing with dryness because it helps to remove flakes and allows you better penetration of your moisturizers, and this pick is amazing for dry, parched skin. The scents of lemon and honey are always soothing to me, as that's the classic remedy my granny makes up for us when we are ill.Plus, you can feel good about using this product as the company is committed to environmental protection and packages their products in recyclable jars and bottles.

It’s chunky, so it certainly doesn’t lack in the scrubbing department, but it also lathers up nicely when it comes into contact with water in the shower or bath to give the skin an effective scrub without being too tough.

Because it’s relatively gentle, she’s able to give her skin a good scrub without having to worry about causing scrapes or microabrasions. One of our testers appreciated how the scrub got to work on dry skin, uneven texture, and self-tanner splotches without causing irritation. The scrub is made with niacinamide and shea butter to reduce the appearance of dark spots, fine lines, and uneven skin texture. These ingredients help keep the skin soft and supple, which is key after scrubbing abrasive particles all over.
