Sugar is popularly used as a scrub for exfoliating skin. It is a source of glycolic acid which is the smallest alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA). Because of its smallest size, these molecules can penetrate deep into the skin. It loosens the bonds of skin cells and promotes new cell growth.
- Sugar as scar and acne remover
Sugar helps to lighten skin and diminish the scars. Glycolic acid present in sugar is known to make the skin fairer. It also controls melanin formation.
It also hydrates the skin and promotes healthy skin cleansing and circulation. Those prone to acne can opt for sugar facials to prevent acne and pimples, and to capture that perfect selfie with glowing skin.
Sugar is a natural humectant. It draws moisture from the environment and transfers it to the skin. It serves as a natural moisturiser which keeps the skin soft and at the same time hydrated.
