Exfoliate for Balance and Beauty
Whenever I feel stressed, tired or overwhelmed I like to give myself the treat of a deep detoxing exfoliation. Besides getting rid of dead skin, feeling super clean and refreshed taking the time to exfoliate helps restore my balance.
I started using scrubs as a way to feel better after stressful events. If I have a tough appointment or meeting I look forward to giving myself a gentle replenishing facial at the end of the day. We originally designed our Island Face Scrub to help with breakouts. But I discovered the gentle mix of Maine roses and seaweeds helps restore my balance. It might be because seaweeds contain trace minerals and vitamins that need to be replenished after a stressful event. I think it also helps to take a few minutes devoted to myself. We have a trial size Island Face Scrub for only $5.00 which used once a week will last for about a month- a little seaweed goes a long way!
Traveling is another great time to add scrubs into your routine. There is so much going on when you travel especially by plane. When I'm off my regular routine I struggle with staying balanced. I find it's easy for me to get dehydrated especially as it is hard to travel with my favorite Lavender tea. Healthy eating can also be tricky. By the time I get to my destination I feel downright yucky and a full body scrub is just what I need. Our blend of hand harvested Maine seaweeds and lovely flower petals leave me feeling happy.
Our scrubs are hand mixed with simple, effective ingredients. Seaweed to help draw out toxins and keep your skin hydrated. Salt or sugar to slough away dead skin and smooth rough patches and hand picked flower petals for beauty and scent.
If you haven't exfoliated in awhile, now is the time. Celebrate the end of winter and the arrival of spring by detoxing and replenishing with one of our nourishing scrubs.

Scrubs help our skin look and feel soft and smooth. Sugar granules are rounder than salt so tend to be gentler while salt makes a stronger exfoliant and also helps to draw toxins out of our bodies.
Our Gardners’ Scrub is sugar based and made for working hands. It’s perfect for anyone who washes their hands frequently. Our Sea Salt Scrubs are designed for using in the shower. Hand harvested dulse from the Maine adds extra nourishment.
Our natural botanical rich scrubs will leave your skin glowing!
I’ve seems a lot of different sugar and salt scrubs. What is the difference between the two?
I just returned from a long car trip that was very stressful. Home was even better after I could relax and detox with your great scrubs.
