Milk made smoothing white sugar scrub - scrub discontinued by Cake Beauty - review by Heartthrob

Milk Made Soothing White Sugar Scrub is a body scrub which uses white sugar crystals as the exfoliant. Use in the shower or bath on the elbows, knees, and feet, anywhere on the body except the genitals and face. The product is heavy and could cause breakouts on the face. Furthermore, because the product uses sugar, it could cause yeast infections on the genitals.

Ingredients include: Sucrose, caprylic capric tryglycerides, parfum, butyrospermum parkii (shea butter), cocos nucifera (coconut) oil, cocoa seed butter, phenoxyethanol, caprylyl glycol, sorbic acid, tocopehryl acetate, water (aqua), hydrolyzed milk protein.

If you are allergic to any of the above ingredients, please do not use.

To use, simply scoop out about a tablespoon full and rub on the desired area for around 30 seconds. This will allow the sugar to melt and the oils to make contact with the skin. Rinse with warm water and pat dry.

Do not use on wounds, broken skin, or irritated skin.

The body scrub has a gritty texture which is not creamy or liquid at all. In the hand, it feels as if you are holding a bunch of large, raw, sugar crystals. As a scrub it is a bit painful at first but melts away and becomes very greasy. The skin is moisturized super nicely and baby soft afterwords. Even though it is one of the most abrasive scrubs on the market it is one of the best.

The scrub smells like a vanilla slushy. I kid you not,a slushy. As with most scrubs, do not ingest this product.

I was surprised by the gritty feel of this scrub on my hand but I needed to give it a try so I put it right on my face. Big mistake! Within 30 seconds my face was covered in grease. I used my facial cleanser and got rid of it then tried it on the rest of my body. What a difference. My skin came out 25 years younger to the touch (I am currently 28)! Now this won't cure wrinkles or damaged skin but if you're looking for that baby soft skin you once had this could do the trick. Those around me commented on my smooth, soft, skin.

This is a huge tub. 20 oz! The scrub comes in a pretty clear tub with a white and pink label on it. The cap is a large screw cap which is almost the width of my hand.

The moisturizing properties of the butters and oils stay on the skin for about 24 hours and resist being washed off by just water alone. It's a moisturizer and scrub in one!

Use this scrub to clear away body black heads and white heads. It will clear the pores unlike any other scrub but if you have oily skin follow it with a cleanser.

I also decided to try this scrub on my boyfriend. He was surprised by its harshness but it got him as smooth as a baby's bottom. However it broke his bottom out. Watch out if you have sensitive skin.
