Alternative to Salt Glow Treatments for Those With Allergies

In this clip we're going to explain how people that do have a shellfish allergy or an iodine allergy can have this treatment as well. What we offer here, also, is a brown sugar scrub which is great for those with sensitive skin and has no risk of any allergic reaction. I don't know of anybody who's really allergic to sugar. At least applied to their body. So we're just going to pour the sugar in the bowl, we're going to add our grape seed oil. Then a nice mix, whoops, probably need a little more. And, we're just going to apply it in the same way. She still gets all the benefits of the exfoliation. Sugar actually is an exfolliant on its own, so it actually helps in its own way. A little different than salt, but, it's not as detoxifying but it's still a good way to get your skin smooth. Once again, we're going to use effleurage movements. We're going to apply pressure, but not too much.
