This is a dual-action exfoliating body cleanser that combines physical and chemical exfoliation for supremely smooth skin. Fine Sugar crystals provide immediate, gentle manual scrubbing to buff away rough, flaky surface patches, while Glycolic Acid works below the surface to dissolve dead cell buildup and even out skin tone. Unlike harsh detergents, this formula uses Cocamidopropyl Betaine and Sodium Cocoyl Isethionate—two ultra-mild, soap-free surfactants derived from coconut—that cleanse without stripping natural oils. Shea Butter and Glycerin are suspended in the formula to deliver deep hydration during the wash, preventing the "tight" feeling common with exfoliating scrubs. The result is soft, radiant, and touchably smooth skin from head to toe.

Ingredient List

Aqua (Deionized Water), Glycerin, Sodium Cocoyl Isethionate, Cocamidopropyl Betaine, Glycolic Acid, Polawax (Emulsifying Wax NF), Shea Butter (Butyrospermum Parkii), Polysorbate 80, Sugar (Sucrose), Liquid Germal Plus (Phenoxyethanol & Chlorphenesin & Decylene Glycol).

How to Use

When: Use in the shower or bath, 2–3 times per week (or daily if skin tolerates it well). Best used in the evening due to Glycolic Acid photosensitivity.
Step-by-step:
Wet your skin thoroughly with warm (not hot) water to soften the surface layer.
Scoop a generous amount of the scrub into your hand. (Because sugar crystals are present, do not use directly on broken or severely irritated skin).
Apply to damp skin and gently massage in circular motions, focusing on rough areas (elbows, knees, heels, upper arms, and bikini line). Avoid the face, eye area, and sensitive mucous membranes.
Leave on for 30–60 seconds after scrubbing to allow the Glycolic Acid to work on the surface.
Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water. You will feel a smooth, slightly moisturized finish—this is the Shea Butter residue, which is beneficial.
Pat dry with a towel. Do not rub aggressively.
