Regular body exfoliation can help improve how dry, rough or dull-looking skin feels.
A sugar body scrub can help to:
Sugar scrubs are particularly useful on areas such as the legs, arms, elbows and knees where dry skin can build up more easily.
For best results, use your scrub on clean, damp skin.
Avoid scrubbing aggressively. Gentle pressure is enough to exfoliate the surface of the skin.
How often you exfoliate depends on your skin.
For many people, using a body scrub once or twice a week is enough to keep skin feeling smooth without over-exfoliating.
If your skin begins to feel uncomfortable, irritated or particularly dry, reduce how frequently you use it.
You should also avoid applying a sugar scrub to broken, irritated or freshly shaved skin.
A sugar scrub is a type of body scrub.
The term body scrub can describe many different exfoliating formulas, while a sugar scrub specifically uses sugar crystals as the main physical exfoliant.
Sugar granules provide a satisfying exfoliating texture while gradually dissolving when mixed with water.
If you want a simple exfoliating body scrub that can be used as part of your normal shower routine, sugar scrubs are an easy option.
Sugar body scrubs provide physical exfoliation, which means the sugar granules help loosen and buff away dead skin cells sitting on the surface of the body.
This can make areas of dry or dull-feeling skin feel smoother after rinsing.
Regular gentle exfoliation can also help prevent a heavy build-up of flaky surface skin, particularly on areas such as the legs, elbows and knees.

Our handmade scrubs combine exfoliating sugar crystals with added shea butter.
Shea butter helps give the formula a richer feel while supporting softer, smoother-feeling skin after exfoliation.
That combination makes these scrubs ideal when you want to polish away rough-feeling skin without your body-care routine feeling harsh or complicated.
Exfoliation doesn't need to smell clinical.
Our cocktail-inspired sugar body scrubs make everyday body care much more fun, with fragrances including:
Whether you prefer something fruity, fresh or sweet, you can choose a fragrance that makes your regular shower feel a little more indulgent.
Every scrub in the collection is handmade, vegan friendly and cruelty-free.
A sugar scrub can easily be added to your normal bath or shower routine.
You might use one:
If using a scrub before fake tan, exfoliating beforehand can help create a smoother surface for application. Avoid scrubbing immediately before applying tan if your skin feels sensitive.
Both products provide physical exfoliation, but they work differently.
A sugar body scrub is a loose or creamy exfoliating product that you massage over damp skin before rinsing away.
A scrub soap combines cleansing soap and a textured exfoliating surface in one solid product.
If you enjoy a dedicated weekly exfoliating treatment, a sugar scrub may suit you best. If you prefer cleansing and exfoliating in one step, an exfoliating scrub soap can be more convenient.
