Ingredients & Function (based on available info) Some of the important ingredients / what they do: Sucrose: The sugar crystals that provide the exfoliation. Glycerin / Sorbitol: Humectants to help retain moisture. Silica: Helps give some scrub “grit” / texture Shea Butter: Deeply moisturizing, helps soften skin. Persea Gratissima (Avocado) Oil: Rich oil that nourishes the skin. Ceramides (in some versions): Helps strengthen the skin barrier. Coconut Oil: Additional emollient / moisturizing oil. Fragrance / Parfum: To give the scrub a scent. (Check for sensitivity.) Preservatives: E.g. phenoxyethanol. (Common in scrubs.) Benefits / What It’s Good For Exfoliation: The sugar crystals help remove dead skin, leaving skin smoother. Hydration: Thanks to shea butter and avocado oil, this is not just scrub — it also moisturizes. Skin Softening: Makes skin feel soft and supple after use. Barrier Support: The ceramide version is especially good for reinforcing the skin’s barrier / reducing dryness. Versatility: Can be used in shower, bath, or even as a hand scrub. Good for Dry / Rough Areas: Especially helpful on elbows, knees, heels, or generally dry skin. Things to Be Careful About / Potential Downsides Over-Exfoliation: Using too often or scrubbing too hard can irritate skin. Grittiness: As with any sugar scrub, the sugar can be quite grainy — not ideal if your skin is very sensitive. Oiliness / Slipperiness: Because of the oils (avocado & shea), the scrub can feel slippery, which might be tricky in the shower. Fragrance: Might irritate very sensitive or fragrance-sensitive skin. Not for Broken Skin: Avoid on cuts, wounds, or very inflamed skin How to Use Wet your skin (in the shower or bath). Scoop a small amount of the scrub. Massage gently in circular motions — focus on rough or dry areas. Rinse thoroughly with warm water. Pat skin dry and apply a moisturizer afterward (because scrubs remove dead skin but don’t lock in moisture completely). Use 2–3 times a week (or less) depending on how sensitive your skin is.
