While the sugar or salt in scrubs are not known to readily absorb into the skin, it is possible for exfoliating scrubs to cause abrasions if used too aggressively or for small cuts to already exist, potentially impacting blood sugar levels. Mistress Ono's Apothecary has created a diabetic-friendly exfoliating scrub with use of natural sand as the exfoliant, effectively lowering the risk of blood sugar impact while still bringing you the moisturizing benefit of organic coconut oil, organic almond oil, charcoal powder, raw honey, and lemon essential oil. Use our scrub to wash away dirt and grime, or to simply treat your skin!Apply to skin and gently scrub. Wash away with water or with use of a gentle soap. Store in cool, dry space.
