Scrubs and Wraps at Glow
Why have a body scrub?
This is a treatment that should be part of everyone's weekly beauty regimen. The use of a body scrub is relaxing and therapeutic. It can be done with salt or sugar.
Body scrubs are naturally exfoliating, softens and tightens skin. Cleansing of clogged pores and helps heal several skin problems.
Salt is full of lots of minerals and can be very nourishing for the body. Salt has larger granules with sharper edges so it can be a more abrasive exfoliator. Great for rougher skin and calluses.
While sugar has smaller more rounded edges better for more sensitive skin and a more gentle exfoliator. Sugar does not contain the large amount of minerals like salt but does contain glycolic acid which helps heal and regenerate the skin.
Which scrub you choose is up to you. Both are mixed with hydrating oils leaving your skin soft and smooth
Detoxifying Body Wraps at Glow Skincare and Spa
Bentonite Clay is a unique clay due to its ability to produce an "electrical charge" when hydrated. Upon contact with fluid, its electrical components change, giving it the ability to absorb toxins. Bentonite is known for its ability to absorb and remove toxins, heavy metals, impurities, and chemicals.
Kaolin white clay is as gentle as they come, perfect for all skin types and conditions. If you sensitive skin this is a great one to try along with the Moroccan Red clay. This clay contains high content of silica that helps in removing the dead skin and then regenerating. It also purifies and detoxes the skin. It has unique minerals and phyto-nutrients that help in eliminating toxins and oil from skin. Excellent for people with sensitive and oily skin types.

Why do a body wrap?
Most of us think of a day at the spa and always hear how it includes a body scrub or body wrap but rarely do we know the benefits. I am sure if I asked several people they would just think great for overall relaxation. But the benefits almost outweigh the total relaxation.
