Why use body scrubs?
THE HEALTH BENEFITS OF A BODY SCRUB
The cells on your body regularly shed to reveal new,
healthier skin underneath. This changing process slows as we get older. Body scrubs helps skin shed old cells.
A body scrub can work in a few different ways:
o
As you massage it over your body, the exfoliating
particles help to eliminate dead skin.
o
The rubbing action itself boosts circulation and
helps drain your lymph nodes, by increasing blood flow to the skin’s surface.
o
Plus, after all that deep cleansing work in the
shower, Ladybug’s Whipped Body Butter will be able to soothe and hydrate
your skin.
But another important benefit of using a scrub is how good
it can feel while using. When you feel the refreshing texture against your skin
and captivating scent that fills the shower allows you to enjoy the treatment
as its happening. It is an experience that can lift your mood and affect your
outlook as you continue your day or evening.
HOW TO USE A BODY SCRUB
If your skin is healthy and firm, you can use a shower scrub
up to three times a week. But if you have sensitive or thin skin, limit a good
buffing to once a week.
Be careful not to over scrub. Though your body skin is
heartier than the skin on your face, it is susceptible to irritation. Always
moisturize with body butter after you’ve dried off for smooth, nourished skin.
WHEN NOT TO USE A BODY SCRUB
If you have a sunburn or are experiencing a rash or other
skin condition, give the body scrub a rest. Some of the ingredients—and the
actual rubbing—could further irritate your skin. You’ll also want to skip it
after shaving.
