Sunshine is beautiful, isn’t it? Well, summer is here and I’m sure we are all looking forward to beach vacations — wearing cute shorts and tank tops, soaking in the sunrays and embracing nature’s beauty. It gives us the very necessary Vitamin D too! Along with it comes skin tanning, which not only makes skin look dull but also causes skin damage at a cellular level.
While sunscreens are always recommended many of us do forget it and at times no amount of sunscreen protects skin from tanning. However, there are also other alternative solutions for you this summer to keep your skin tan free and protected.
There are a range of exfoliants for the face and body which are made from humble kitchen ingredients, essential oils, and nut butter. Try some of these scrubs this summer for face and body.
Rice flour, orange and green tea face scrub: A decongesting and exfoliating scrub that polishes, refines and makes skin smooth! Formulated with traditional rice flour that removes stubborn oil from trouble zones, antioxidant-rich camellia, which prevents signs of ageing and refreshing orange for an instant zing, this scrub is an absolute must-have. Get geisha-like smooth, toned and refreshed skin with this scrub crafted with Oriental beauty secrets!
Rose, almond and shea body scrub: Formulated with luxurious rose, exfoliating almond and nourishing shea, this body scrub refines and revitalises dry and damaged skin to deliver healthier, softer skin. Almond meal along with sugar acts as a natural exfoliator. It helps to gently remove dead skin and impurities making it radiant and softer. Be summer ready with smooth and deeply nourished skin.
