Body Scrubs For Dry Skin

A body scrub is basically a concoction which is used to scrub away dead skin cells from the body. It exfoliates and hydrates your skin, leaving it smooth and soft. It is a suspension of coarse granules (apricot, walnut, oatmeal, sea salt) in a semi-liquid medium or gel (often resembling the consistency of body butter or a moisturizing lotion). A body scrub is done with an abrasive material like salt, sugar, coffee grounds, rice bran, even pecan hulls, usually mixed with some kind of massage oil and an aromatic like essential oils. This is not a massage; it is a treatment. Normally, the body replaces its skin cells every 28 days or so. Helping it rid of these dead cells makes for a healthier skin.
