SweetHoneyDipChocolate... BrownSugah Scrub

 Available at Sephora $34

Last night, I tried SweetHoneyDipChocolate...BrownSugah Scrub by Carol's Daughter. Let me tell you, you need this in your life! It smells so freaking good that I could have taken a spoonful and put it in my mouth instead of on my body! The brown sugar crystals help polish away dead skin cells, and it's full of natural oils that aid in moisturizing the skin.

The scrub is also paraben-free. Paraben is a synthetic preservative commonly used in cosmetics and personal care products like shampoos, skin creams and deodorants. Many people have allergic reactions to these preservatives causing skin rashes and irritation. Paraben is suspected to cause problems like weight gain, skin aging and certain types of cancer. Needless to say, there is a great ongoing debate as to the safety of products containing parabens.

It also is free of petroleum, mineral oil, and artificial color. Petroleum products coat the skin like plastics, clogging the pores, which interferes with the skins ability to eliminate toxins. This promotes acne and slows down cell development in skin, resulting in premature aging.

Carol's Daughter has a lot of amazing products that I look forward to trying!
