Notes

Sensitive Skin & Spice Note

Because this scrub uses ground spices, it’s best suited for normal to dry skin. If you have sensitive skin, start with a small patch test before full use.
To make this scrub gentler, you can reduce the cinnamon and cloves by half or use the scrub primarily on hands and feet, where skin is less delicate. Avoid use on freshly shaved or irritated skin.

How to Use Sugar Scrub

Apply a small amount of scrub to damp skin and massage gently in circular motions. Focus on dry areas such as hands, elbows, knees, and feet. Rinse thoroughly with warm water and pat dry.
Use 1–2 times per week, especially during winter months when skin tends to be drier.
Caution. Avoid using spice-based scrubs on the face or very sensitive areas.
