A whipped sugar scrub is a light, fluffy body scrub made by mixing sugar with whipped oils or butters. It exfoliates the skin while helping it feel soft and smooth.
You can use a whipped sugar scrub 1–2 times a week. Using it too often may irritate sensitive skin.
This scrub is best for the body. Sugar can be too rough for facial skin, so it’s safer to keep it for hands, arms, and legs.
