Two new glorious scents of Apothekari Sugar Body Polish have just arrived! We’re so excited for you to try our newest additions to the Apothekari collection. Our Lemon Verbena Sugar Body Polish has a bright, aromatic citrus scent that’s ideal for aromatherapeutic body treatments. Our Vanilla Rose Sugar Body Polish boasts a modern and subtle scent of rose with a faint hint of vanilla that takes your time in a pampering bath to the next level. Unlike most sugar-based scrubs, our body polishes are smooth, never drip excess oil and don’t need stirring prior to use so they’re easy to apply.
Made with shea and olive fruit butters combined with virgin coconut oil, these body exfoliators have a unique emulsified texture. Shea butter is a remarkable, all-purpose moisturizer and skin protector, and leaves the skin feeling soft and well-moisturized yet not greasy. Non-GMO, expeller-pressed safflower oil adds nourishment and suppleness to dry skin.
Using sugar as the base for these body polishes was no accident. Sugar has inherent benefits that lends itself well to exfoliating and softening the skin:
- Sugar Contains Naturally Occurring Alpha Hydroxy Acids. More specifically, sugar contains glycolic acid which encourages exfoliation and faster cell renewal.
- Sugar is a Natural Humectant. It draws moisture from the external environment into the skin. This can help to hydrate skin and help keep it looking smooth and supple.
- Sugar’s Small Grains Make it Idea for use in Body Scrubs. Its fine particles are an excellent exfoliant and combined with its humectant nature, sugar is a true multi-tasking ingredient.
Get ready for some sweet results.
