Notes

How to Use Sugar Scrub

Scoop a small amount of scrub and massage gently onto damp skin using circular motions. Focus on areas that tend to become dry such as hands, elbows, knees, and feet.
Rinse thoroughly with warm water and pat skin dry.
For best results, use 1–2 times per week.

Sensitive Skin Note

Citrus ingredients can occasionally be irritating for very sensitive skin. If you are new to citrus-based scrubs, try a small patch test before using on larger areas.
If needed, you can reduce the amount of orange zest or essential oil to make the scrub milder.
Avoid using on freshly shaved or irritated skin.
