Sugar is so much more than just a sweet substance that you add to your coffee, it is a natural source of glycolic acid, this mean that it helps the skin to generate fresher younger-looking skin by breaking down what holds old cell to the surface of your skin.
Unrefined sugar helps to condition and hydrate your skin leaving it feeling beautifully moisturised and healthy.
Other unnamed products that use not so friendly ingredients will clog pores and cause all sorts of build-up under your skin. Sugar is a natural exfoliator and soft on the skin. This helps unblocks pores and improve the condition of the skin – so it's a must-have in your skin care routine.
So, there it is, the reason why we use sugar in our scrubs. Always do a small patch test if you aren't sure how your skin will react.
