What are the benefits of lavender and honey?
Lavender is best known for its relaxing properties.

In ancient Egypt, honey has been used to heal burns and wounds. So best believe, these two combined can do your skin good!
How frequently can I use this sugar scrub?
You can use this scrub once or twice a week, our skin doesn’t need exfoliating every day so better save this for those days when you want to pamper yourself.
WHAT IS THE BEST TYPE/KIND OF SUGAR TO USE?
Depending on your preference, you can use different types of sugar. Some might be coarser while others are slightly less coarse. If you have sensitive skin, you might want to go for brown sugar. It is the least abrasive and gentlest to use.

Yes! This is a good gift idea. Just store it in a tight lid jar and decorate it for a personal touch. A sugar scrub stored in a tight lid container should last about a month or more.
