Ginger has lovely warming properties & is high in antioxidants, making it great for anti-aging. It may also reduce the appearance of scarring & hypopigmentation.

Lemon is naturally astringent, detoxifying and clarifying making it a wonderfully bright addition to this scrub.

This is a lovely scrub to use in the cooler months when your body is craving the warmth.
