How to Use Our Lavender Hand Sugar Scrub
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the lavender hand sugar scrub made from?
It's a 100ml hand sugar scrub made with fine sugar, glycerine, coconut oil and shea butter in a gentle cleansing base. It's scented with our own lavender essential oil, Super Lavandin (Lavandula × intermedia 'Super'), with a pretty floral touch of hibiscus.
Can I use a sugar scrub on my hands after gardening?
Yes, it's made for exactly that. Rub a scoop between damp hands after gardening, then rinse, and the fine sugar grains polish your skin as you wash. Your hands are left feeling smooth and soft, with a light lavender scent.
How do I use the hand sugar scrub?
Take a small scoop with dry fingers or a spoon and rub it onto damp hands in small circles. Rinse well and pat your hands dry, then follow with our lavender hand cream. Keep the jar sealed and away from the tap so the scrub stays fresh.
Does the hand sugar scrub contain nuts, coconut, beeswax or milk?
It contains coconut, because it's made with coconut oil. It doesn't contain nuts, beeswax or milk. It also contains shea butter and a gentle cleansing base. The full ingredient list is on this page.
Who is the hand sugar scrub suitable for, and is it a good gift?
It suits gardeners, cooks and anyone with busy, hard-working hands. Keep a jar by the kitchen or laundry sink, or pair it with our lavender hand cream for a birthday or Mother's Day gift. Patch-test first if you have sensitive skin. If you're pregnant, check with your healthcare provider first.
Where does the lavender in this hand sugar scrub come from?
It comes from our own family farm in Newstead, Waikato, New Zealand. We grow Super Lavandin (Lavandula × intermedia 'Super'), harvest it in summer and steam-distil the oil ourselves, then use it to scent the scrub.
