SweetHoneyDip ChocolateBrownSugah Sea Salt Scrub - Carol's Daughter

SweetHoneyDip ChocolateBrownSugah Sea Salt Scrub - Carol's Daughter

As a strong believer in exfoliation, and healthy skin care in general, I have tried dozens of scrubs to maintain soft, youthful skin. I was totally caught off guard when I received this scrub as a gift last year. Upon first whiff I had to resist the urge to taste this chocolatey concoction of chocolate, honey and sweet vanilla bean. The brown sugar crystals polishes away dry, dull skin while the natural oils penetrate and moisturize. This scub is a definite must have for revealing beautiful summer skin.  This delightful treat can be purchased at Carol's Daughter or Amazon for $34.
