There are many different types of body scrubs. Some are made with natural ingredients, but they can be pricy. Other products contain synthetic fragrance. The skin on the face is fragile, so a body scrub that contains caster sugar or fine sea salt will be fine. The normal sugar or salt granules may be too harsh.<\/p>\n
