Buff & Brighten Your Body!

There’s a reason we named our company “scrub me”; we absolutely love a good full body exfoliation! Scrubbing the skin on our body isn’t just for buffing away and softening dry skin, it also helps keep skin firm and youthful. Full body exfoliation brings circulation and oxygen flow to the skin’s surface, helping keep your proteins happy and healthy. Using some type of body scrub, loofah, exfoliating soap, or dry brush on your body a few times a week will keep your skin firmer for longer. Think of exfoliating like a mini fountain of youth!

Our Favorite Spa Treatments for your Body

Did you know when scrub me™ started as a company in 2013 we only had two types of products? A sea salt body scrub with added botanical ingredients and our ever popular whipped shea butter. These products were created because we felt we needed to put more of an emphasis on taking care of the skin on our bodies, not just our faces. We want to pamper all parts of our skin to keep it healthy, clear, and youthful. Cleansing, exfoliating, massaging, and moisturizing your body with great products at home is important. But, there are a few in spa treatments that can help get your skin in optimal condition!

My Lash Extension Experience

Since my last lash extension, I have learned that lash extensions shouldn’t feel heavy or uncomfortable on your lash in any way.

A Closer Look into Stretch Marks.

Stretch marks are essentially scars that occur when severe damage is done to collagen and elastin fibers; rapid growth of the skin or rapid weight loss is what causes this damage. When skin stretches or changes very quickly, especially if it’s dry, the proteins can’t hold their natural structure and end up tearing. Stretch marks look like uneven lines going across your skin, usually, there are a few right next to each other.

Home Remedies for Common Skin Disorders

Certain skin disorders are more common than most of us think. Issues such as stretch marks, rashes and bumps, or eczema can be embarrassing for us to talk about or ask for help managing them. It is our job to keep our skin healthy and balanced and sometimes we don't have the right products or information to treat it. We’ve got some helpful skin care tips that can alleviate certain skin disorders or prevent them from happening at all, and maintain a healthy complexion.

Magnesium for Skin Health

A few months ago, while doing research for a new scrub me™ product, a certain mineral caught our attention. Magnesium is a mineral that naturally occurs in the human body, foods, supplements, and other natural sources. From our immune system to our bone strength, magnesium plays an important role in the workings of the body. We were researching this mineral because of the topical benefits it has for the skin. Now we’d love to share our findings with you!
