Scrub Away Dead Cells for Clear and Smooth Skin 

Facial scrubs are equally important for skin care as moisturizers. Our skin sheds dead skin cells every 20-25 days. As we get older, this natural exfoliating skin process slows down, leaving unshed dead cells on the skin’s surface. These unshed dead cells can cause discoloration, irritations, clogged pores, and rough and dull-looking skin. In fact, routine exfoliation helps scrub away dead cells and increases the efficacy of moisturizers by allowing deep absorption.  If you are not using a scrub, you are missing an important step in your skincare routine.

A Fun Fact About Eucalyptus Essential Oil

Australian Aboriginals had been using eucalyptus oil for centuries before it received commercial acknowledgment. It is hard to track the year of eucalyptus oil discovery, but it first came to fame in the 1880s.  An English legend narrates that the commercial use of eucalyptus oil began with an English surgeon’s visit to Australia. The English surgeon learned about this oil through his study of Aboriginal folk medicine and was impressed by its cleansing and purifying properties. The rest is history and there was never looking back for eucalyptus oil. 

By the 20th-century, eucalyptus plants were exported from their origin in Australia and transported to many parts of the world. Now eucalyptus plants are cultivated throughout the world including in Greece, China, Brazil, and Europe for oil distillation.
