SALT SCRUBS VS SUGAR SCRUBS

One of the best ways to attain and maintain gorgeous skin is through the manual exfoliation process. There is a plethora of scrubbing products in the market however the two most popular ones are salt scrubs and sugar scrubs. Many of us just pick the first one we see on the store shelf without even pausing to think of the pros and cons or the difference between the two. In this article, we shall discuss everything you need to know about salt vs sugar scrubs

Salt Scrubs

Not only does salt manually exfoliate, but it is also well known for having detoxifying properties. This makes scrubs formulated with salt a perfect choice for people who aim to remove impurities from their skin. Additionally, salt scrubs help in stimulating circulation and ease inflammation, penetrating deep below the skin to soothe muscle soreness. Too much use of salt scrubs can irritate delicate skin.

Where to use a salt scrub

Due to the coarse texture, it is not used on delicate parts of the body (face, neck, chest, lips). However, it is super important on calluses and body parts with tough skin (elbows, knees, and feet).

Sugar Scrubs

It is less abrasive with smaller, smoother particles than salt scrubs which makes it less likely to irritate sensitive skin or damage fragile skin. Although scrubs made of sugar does not contain the detoxifying properties of salt scrubs, they have moisturizing benefits due to the presence of glycolic acid. Which is a natural exfoliant and helps to lock in moisture while getting rid of dead skin cells. However, the fine texture of sugar makes it less potent to deal with tough elbows, feet, and knees.
