Exfoliation is an important part of any skincare routine. By regularly removing dead cells, you let your skin breathe, prevent blackheads and acne breakouts, and make your skin look fresh and glowing. The easiest and most popular way to exfoliate is by using a face scrub. If you’re looking for a high-quality, effective and natural exfoliant, check out sugar face scrubs by Swan.
Facial scrubs can be formulated with different exfoliants, including plastic microbeads, salt or sugar crystals, crushed almond shells or apricot kernel, pumice, ground coffee, berry seeds, and more. Salt and sugar crystals are considered among the best exfoliants because they melt gradually on contact with skin and therefore don’t scratch it.
Ukrainian beauty brand Swan has created several sugar face scrubs for different skin types. The brand specializes in the production of natural cosmetics based on plant ingredients, so its face scrubs are completely free of artificial preservatives, fragrance, dyes, thickeners, or any other synthetic ingredients that may cause irritation and allergy. They are formulated with tiny sugar crystals that effectively remove dead skin cells, dirt, excess sebum, and make-up residue, unclog pores, and polish the skin, making it look clean, fresh, and glowing.
In addition to sugar, Swan face scrubs contain natural ingredients that take good care of the skin. They have been selected to complement and enhance each other’s effect. The key ingredients that can be found in the brand’s sugar face scrubs include grapeseed oil, coconut oil, beeswax, whole milk powder, and sweet almond oil. Let’s take a closer look at their properties and skin benefits.
Grapeseed oil is one of the lightest cosmetic oils. It consists of linoleic acid, oleic acid, palmitic acid, stearic acid, and alpha-linolenic acid. Due to its high unsaturated fat content, it helps to keep the skin hydrated, prevents inflammation and breakouts, stimulates collagen synthesis in the epidermis, and relieves dry and flaky skin.
Coconut oil is widely used in skin and hair care. Unlike grapeseed oil, it mostly consists of saturated fatty acids, such as lauric, myristic, palmitic, decanoic, and caprylic. Saturated facts give coconut oil strong nourishing and emollient properties. This oil helps to lock in moisture, makes the skin soft and supple, prevents dehydration and flaking, and improves complexion.
Beeswax is used in cosmetics thanks to its protective and antiseptic properties. It creates an invisible occlusive layer on the skin surface, protecting the skin from the environment. In addition, beeswax combats inflammation by inhibiting the growth of pathogenic bacteria, prevents premature wrinkles, and soothes the skin.
Whole milk powder, also known as dry milk or powdered milk, is a valuable source of protein, calcium, potassium, lactose, and other nutrients. When used as a cosmetic ingredient, milk powder actively nourishes the skin, as well as makes it soft, smooth, and supple. Thanks to containing lactic acid, milk powder also has a whitening effect. It combats pigmentation, improves complexion, and gives the skin a healthy glow.
Finally, sweet almond oil contains monounsaturated oleic acid, polyunsaturated linoleic acid, and saturated palmitic acid. This oil is a rich source of vitamin E (tocopherol), providing 261% of the Daily Value per 100 ml. Vitamin E has antioxidant properties. It neutralizes free radicals and therefore prevents premature skin ageing. Thanks to this vitamin, almond oil smooths out fine lines, reduces deeper wrinkles, and significantly improves skin elasticity.
In addition to carrier oils, beeswax and milk powder, sugar face scrubs by Swan contain essential oils. Orange Sugar Scrub for Normal and Combination Skin is formulated with sweet orange oil, while Rose Sugar Scrub for Normal and Combination Skin contains rose oil. Essential oils act a natural fragrance, giving Swan’s scrubs a subtle smell. Besides, essential oils have antiseptic properties. They prevent inflammation and speed up the healing of minor skin injuries.
