Sugar & Shea Body Polish

Meet our Sugar and Shea Body Polish Base, a luxurious and exfoliating body scrub that will leave your skin feeling smooth, soft, and revitalized. Made with the perfect combination of fine sugar granules and nourishing shea butter, this body polish gently buffs away dead skin cells while deeply hydrating and nourishing your skin. The sugar granules provide gentle yet effective exfoliation, leaving your skin feeling silky smooth, while the shea butter works to deeply moisturize and soothe dry or rough areas. The base is also enriched with vitamin E, a powerful antioxidant that helps to protect and repair skin from damage caused by environmental stressors.

Benefits of Sugar

There are many different types of exfoliants, so let's talk about what makes sugar so unique!

Gentle Exfoliation

Sugar is considered a gentle exfoliator because its granules are round and small in size, which means they won't cause micro-tears in the skin's surface like some harsher exfoliants can. The sugar crystals work to lift away dead skin cells without causing damage or irritation to the skin, making it a great option for those with sensitive skin or anyone looking for a gentler alternative to harsher scrubs.

Natural Form of Glycolic Acid

Sugar contains a natural form of glycolic acid, which is an alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) that is commonly used in skincare products for its exfoliating and skin-renewing benefits. When used in a sugar scrub, this natural form of glycolic acid helps to gently break down the bonds between dead skin cells, making it easier to slough them away and reveal smoother, brighter skin.

A Natural Humectant

Sugar is a natural humectant, meaning it draws moisture from the environment and helps to lock it into the skin. When used in a sugar scrub, this property helps to keep the skin hydrated and moisturized even after the exfoliating process is complete.

Gentle Enough for Face & Lips

Sugar granules, due to their fine texture, make a gentle exfoliator suitable for delicate areas like the face and lips, buffing away dead skin cells while leaving skin soft and smooth.

Benefits of Shea Butter

There are many different types of exfoliants, so let's talk about what makes sugar so unique!

Moisturizing

Shea butter is highly moisturizing, making it an excellent choice for dry or dehydrated skin.

Soothing

Shea butter has a high concentration of fatty acids and natural vitamins, which can help to soothe irritated skin and reduce itchiness and discomfort.

Anti-inflammatory

Shea butter contains cinnamic acid, which has anti-inflammatory properties and can help to reduce redness and inflammation in the skin.

Protecting

Shea butter creates a barrier on the skin, which can help to protect against environmental stressors such as pollution and harsh weather conditions.

what's inside

High Oleic Safflower Oil

This star ingredient is rich in oleic acid, an omega-9 fatty acid that helps to improve skin's moisture retention, making it a great choice for those with dry or dehydrated skin. High oleic safflower oil is also non-comedogenic, meaning it won't clog pores, making it suitable for use by those with acne-prone or oily skin.

Rosemary Leaf Extract

Rosemary leaf extract has anti-inflammatory properties that can help to soothe and calm irritated skin. Additionally, it has astringent properties that help to tighten and tone the skin, reducing the appearance of pores and improving overall skin texture.

Rice Bran Extract

Rice Bran Extract contains ceramides, which help to strengthen the skin barrier and improve moisture retention, reducing dryness and promoting a more youthful complexion. It is also rich in antioxidants, including vitamin E and ferulic acid, which help to protect the skin from environmental stressors and free radicals that cause damage and premature aging.

Sunflower Extract

Sunflower extract contains linoleic acid, which helps to improve skin's moisture retention and promote a smoother, more supple complexion. Additionally, it has anti-inflammatory properties that can help to soothe and calm irritated skin.

Vitamin E

Vitamin E is a powerful antioxidant that can help to protect the skin from environmental stressors and free radicals, which can cause damage and premature aging. Additionally, vitamin E has moisturizing properties that can help to improve skin hydration and reduce dryness, leaving the skin feeling soft and supple.

Heaven Sent

This has simply been amazing to work with and use. I no longer have to shop for different ingredients to make my own base. This is real real the best, takes fragrance well and after 8 hand washes my hands still felt great.
