This is a lovely, soft and gentle Brown Sugar Scrub, perfect for the delicate skin on your face and neck. Brown sugar is a wonderful exfoliating ingredient and contains glycolic acid which fights bacteria; honey is incredible for the skin because of its antioxidant and antibacterial properties; and if you use olive oil as your carrier oil, it is probably something you can whip up with ingredients you have in your pantry right now.
