Body scrubs for soft and smooth skin

Whether you are considering a spray tan or simply want to tackle a patch of dry skin, then a body scrub is your best beauty friend.

Made with exfoliating particles and nutrient-rich ingredients, a quality scrub should hold pride of place in your bathroom cabinet. Read on for a round-up of three great new options to crop up on the market.

Kate Somerville’s ExfoliKate Resurfacing Body Scrub

Feel like it’s time to add a touch of luxury to your shower? Look no further than Kate Somerville’s brand-new ExfoliKate Resurfacing Body Scrub. This formula contains a combination of lactic and salicylic acids to chemically exfoliate, while the addition of papaya, pineapple, and pumpkin enzymes buff away dry, rough, and flaky patches without leaving the skin feeling dry, tight, or stripped. Apply to cleansed, damp skin and massage the scrub in circular motions. Leave for a few minutes, rinse off, and be prepared to bask in your fresh-from-the-spa glow!

Olverum’s Body Polish

With a soufflé-like texture, Olverum’s Body Polish is made with fermented papaya enzyme to gently break down dead cells, and bamboo and pumice extracts to polish the skin. In addition, bergamot, lavandin, and geranium oils boost elasticity, while invigorating patchouli and ylang ylang lightly scent the skin. Apply to cleansed, damp skin and massage the scrub in circular motions. Leave for a few minutes and rinse off.

Slow Ageing Essentials’ Face and Body Exfoliating Polish

Made with nourishing coconut oil, as well as invigorating ginger, pomegranate and orange extracts, this powerhouse scrub banishes rough or dry patches in mere moments. While great for use in the shower or bath, it can also be massaged dry onto the body before rinsing off. As a bonus, the uplifting scent is evocative of citrus-filled orchards. Lovely!
