7 Surprising Sugar Scrub Benefits

for a Healthy Glow

Sugar scrubs are all the rage in beauty care these days. They are deliciously indulgent, smell good, and are so easy to use. That's not to mention all the sugar scrub benefits for your skin!


You’ve probably discovered our delicious line of body scrubs already, but we’re here to help you learn more about the range of sugar scrub benefits and why you should give each intoxicating scent a try.

So Many Sugar Scrub Benefits

Though sugar is typically something we’re all told to take out of our bodies, there are so many benefits to using it on your body.


If you’re looking for an inexpensive way to treat yourself, pamper your skin, and feel like you’ve spent the day at a spa, look no further than a sugar scrub. Check out the many sugar scrub benefits.

Say Goodbye to Dry

Do you suffer from dry, flakey skin? Sugar scrubs are just the tool for bringing a little extra moisture back into your skin and enhancing your glow.

Natural humectant

Humectants pull moisture from the air like magnets that attract water. Sugar is a natural humectant that keeps your skin hydrated and holds moisture in your skin.

Natural glycolic acid

Glycolic acid is a magical ingredient, typically derived from sugar cane, used in many beauty products. The small molecules easily penetrate the skin to help generate fresh, glowing skin cells, reduce aging, and minimize the effects of sun damage.

Time to Exfoliate

The primary sugar scrub benefits come from their exfoliation properties. Exfoliation helps improve the health of your skin in so many ways.

Let your skin radiate beauty

You generate new skin cells every day. Exfoliation sloughs away those dead skin cells and improves circulation to make room for the new cells to come shining through.


Scrub away that tired, dull-looking skin and say hello to a healthy, smooth, and flawless complexion.

Goodbye acne

Blocked pores lead to breakouts. Exfoliating removes any blockage from your pores to keep your skin fresh and clear, minimizing your trouble with acne.

Those pesky ingrown hairs

In addition to cleaning your pores, exfoliating also decreases the chances of ingrown hairs. By using a sugar scrub a few times per week on trouble spots, you remove excess skin around hair follicles.


Instead, hairs protrude above the skin and are discouraged from curling under the surface. As a result, you get a closer shave with fewer bumps.

How to Reap Those Sugar Scrub Benefits

The best way to soak in all of those sugar scrub benefits is in the shower.


Allow the warm water to soften your skin for a few minutes to prepare it for exfoliation. Step out of the running water while you rub the sugar scrub on your skin. Gently massage into the desired areas using small, circular motions.


Sugar scrub is safe to use on any external part of your body. Be sure to apply lighter pressure on sensitive areas such as your décolletage or face.


Let the scrub sit for a few moments to soak in and maximize your results. Rinse away with warm water and feel your silky, smooth skin.

White Sugar or Brown Sugar?

Sugar has an advantage over salt scrubs because salt can cause micro-tears in your skin or strip the oils from it.


The smaller particles of sugar make them gentle for your whole body, including your face. That means you can rub it all over without fear of damaging your skin.


Some people like to use brown sugar on their faces because it has an even smaller grain, making it more gentle on your skin. However, you can use either sugar all over.

Essential oils

No matter which type of sugar you choose, if you have sensitive skin, then be wary about adding essential oils to your scrubs. They may cause irritation or other unwanted side effects.

How Often Should I Use A Sugar Scrub?

To enjoy those sugar scrub benefits fully, it’s all about consistency. Use at least once a week to maintain soft, smooth skin. Additionally, if you live in a dry climate, you can use two or three times a week. With some time, you’ll find what works best for your skin type.

What About Emulsified Sugar Scrubs?

An emulsified sugar scrub is a thicker, creamier blend than traditional scrubs made with oils. They have added moisturizers and allow for a smoother spread on the body. Plus, they make less mess and rinse away without leaving any oily residue. They can be used the same way as oil-based scrubs.

Get Your Glow On

What are you waiting for? It’s time to hop in the shower and reap all of those yummy sugar scrub benefits now! Don’t let another second pass you by.


We just know the moment you give one of our sugar scrubs a try, you’ll be happy with your glowing skin. And be sure to check out our collection of body scrubs!
