The warmer months are upon us and you know what the means,
cute summer clothes! Well at least for me! I love the warmer months and being
able to wear my dresses with no tights but this means I need to self-tan and
pay special attention to my skin, especially on my legs and arms since they are
exposed after being hidden in the winter
months.
One of the most important steps in taking care of your skin
is exfoliating. I love a good scrub! It
is perfect for prepping your skin for self-tanning. Getting rid of all that old
dead skin and bringing forth your healthy soft skin. For the past week I have
been using Grace & Stella scrubs! Twice a week I have used their coffee scrub
and everyday using their Brown Sugar Scrub. Want to know my thoughts? Keep
reading!
Coffee Scrub-
Opening this scrub I instantly was intoxicated with the
scent! It is delicious and you just want to rub it all over your body! I have
used this scrub several times in the shower just like I would any other scrub
by wetting my skin, taking a scoop of the scrub and rubbing it in circular
motions. I could feel it working instantly and getting the dead skin off my
body. I let it sit on myself for about 5 minutes. After rinsing the scrub off, my
skin felt so soft and rejuvenated!
One of the benefits of the coffee scrub is supposed to help
with cellulite! I haven’t noticed any difference yet, but I will say my skin
feels so soft after I step out of the shower and put my lotion on. While
exfoliating it doesn’t hurt me like some other brands I have tried. It has also
helped with some dry patches I was experiencing. The Coffee Scrub gets rid of all the gross old
skin on my body. My skin does look more beautiful and smooth!
I am going to keep using the scrub a couple of times a week
and see if I do see improvement with things like my cellulite and stretch
marks.
This is usually $32.95 but I saw on their site on sale for
$15.95!
Here are some notes from their website on the Coffee Scrub-
• Reduces the
appearance of cellulite and stretch marks.
• Fights acne and
breakouts by gently exfoliating the skin.
• Moisturizes and
hydrates skin for a soft, supple feel.
• Nourishes skin with
antioxidants.
• Made from a blend of
natural and organic ingredients.

Brown Sugar Scrub=
This might be one of my favorite scrubs I have ever tried!
You know one of the reasons why? It is safe to use every day! It is quick and
easy to use, right in the shower I just use a small handful of the scrub, and massage
it into my skin and rinse off. There really is no scent but you are left with
the smoothest skin ever! It is made with certified Organic Shea Butter and I
think this must be the magic ingredient because my skin has never felt so
smooth! Here is some information taken from their website-
Infused with Sweet
Almond Oil to improve complexion and retain natural sheen and real Honey to
attract and retain moisture
Uses Safflower Seed
Oil to deeply moisturize and Evening Primrose Oil to rejuvenate and as an
anti-aging agent
Made with Avocado Oil
which reduces sun damage and hydrates, Macadamia Seed Oil which is an excellent
skin moisturizer and protector, and Orange Oil which supports collagen
formation, detoxifies and repairs sun damaged skin
The real sugar grains
and Almond bits will softly buff away dead skin cells, leaving your skin
feeling smooth all day
This is also on sale from $32.95 to $15.95! You can read

After using this scrub I feel clean and like my skin is
summer ready!
Both of the scrubs I am truly amazed by! They made my skin
so soft and more visibly smooth. They are going to be perfect throughout the
summer months. They help prepare my skin for self-tanner by removing the old
tanner and prepping my skin to apply new. Plus, I don’t have any dry patches on
my skin anymore since using these scrubs!
I have also used the Coffee scrub on the bottom of my feet so I can have sandal ready feet! I plan to continue using the Brown Sugar scrub
daily to have super soft skin and the Coffee Scrub once to twice a week when I need
a deeper exfoliation treatment. I am extremely fond that the products are
natural. I also adore how the scrubs are packaged with the easy to open tops
that close tightly and stay fresh!
Thank you Grace &
Stella for making these fantastic products and allowing me to test them
out! You can check out more from Grace & Stella at graceandstella.com make
sure to do so while their sale is going on! They have a bunch of other products
to try! I think next on my list is to try the Miracle Hair Straightening Brush!
What do you do to get your skin ready for the summer?
Anything catch your eye on graceandstella.com?
