    Sugar scrubs offer a physical way to slough away dead cells that have built up on your skin—by doing this, you help your skin look smooth and glowing. They also help prep your skin for skincare products.

    If you have water, which you hopefully do have at hand, use that to make your facial a little more watery if necessary. You may proceed with your facial if you want.

    Can I use virgin coconut oil and sugar alone to exfoliate?
    Community Answer
    Yes, that's fine. The sugar will exfoliate and the coconut will help heal and smooth the skin.
  • Question
    Is the facial scrub good for kids?
    Community Answer
    Older kids can still use it, but young kids' skin is very soft and the scrub will be too harsh for them.
  • Question
    Is it okay to use the mask every day?
    Community Answer
    I don't recommend using the mask every day as it could dry out or irritate your skin. I would use the mask twice a week at the most.
  • Question
    Can I use honey and water alone as a face scrub?
    Community Answer
    I wouldn't recommend it, because the honey will stick to your face, making for a bad experience. Also, it won't exfoliate and be effective. Adding sugar to it will exfoliate, removing dead skin cells.
