Sweet Magic: Sugar Slush Body Treatment This winter, instead of binging on high-sugar foods that play havoc with your health and skin opt for sugar in a whole new avatar. Sugar slush is a refreshing exfoliating treatment to gently slough away dry, dead skin and open tired pores, so your skin absorbs moisturizers better. Earlier salt scrubs were considered better for exfoliation but they were rougher and could cause microscopic tears in the skin, making it quite painful, especially on sensitive skin. Today, sugar scrubs are acknowledged as a superior option, as they are easier to manage and deliver good results without causing pain or inflammation of sensitive skin. Brown sugar is softer than granulated sugar, so can generally be used on the face and sensitive skin. A sugar slushy also moisturizes the skin as sugar is natural humectants, meaning it retains or preserves moisture. So when you apply products with sugar, they help hydrate the skin. Moreover, in sugar slush, because the sugar is combined with oil, aromatics and fruit pulps, it leaves your skin feeling soft, fragrant and moisturized. The fine particles in sugar make a fine topical exfoliate, and scrub away dead surface skin cells to reveal glowing skin below. What’s more, sugar is a natural source of glycolic acid, an alpha hydroxyl acid (AHA) that penetrates the skin and breaks down the “glue” that bonds skin cells, encouraging cell turnover and generating fresher skin. Sugar scrubs are especially recommended in the winter, as they act as all-body polishing agents, helping moisturizers penetrate deeper and hydrate longer – leaving you with radiant, renewed skin. Repeated use will help one to have healthier, glowing, and uniformly textured and colored skin.
