Exfoliating Body Polish with Shea Butter

We are making our Exfoliating Body Polish with Shea Butter, and it is as scrumptious as it looks! As we have said on our web store, we combined the moisturizing, re-hydrating and calming benefits of Shea Butter with the skin rejuvenating traits of Jojoba Oil and Fractionated Coconut Oil. This has been blended with pure turbinado sugar to create this unique and delightful body scrub. We also use kaolin clay (white) to help detoxify the skin. The result is a scrub that is unsurpassed in its ability to exfoliate, moisturize and rejuvenate your skin like no other scrub you have tried.

First, we mix the butters and oils and melt them on the stove.
Then, we put the melted butters and oils on top of
cold, ice water, and we mix it until it begins to solidify.


After mixing for about 15-20 minutes, we are ready to add the exfoliants to the mix.

Finally, it is ready to be bottled and labeled.

Treat your body to our Exfoliating Body Polish with Shea Butter; your skin will thank you.

Even if you don't use 5th Avenue Bath Co's scrubs, here are some scrub hints to remember--
SCRUB TIPS:
Your entire body should be "scrubbed" at least one time per week, but you can exfoliate your skin mulitple times each week. Using scrubs serves as a stimulating massage and improves blood circulation. You should scrub in a circular motion, starting with the feet, ankles, and legs, then working on to the hands, arms, and shoulders, gradually working your way down to the back, then up through the torso towards the heart. You do not need to scrub "hard" to exfoliate your skin. A cool-water rinse after a body scrub will further activate blood circulation throughout the body. Pat dry and moisturize. As this treatment is revitalizing and energizing, it is best practiced in the morning, but you can do it anytime.

Happy Bathing!
Your Friends @ 5th Avenue Bath Co.
