At Dirty Lamb, we created a new winter seasonal product that we know our flock will absolutely love. Our Merry Strawberry Scrub is packed with incredible ingredients that are sure to brighten your winter day. Did you know that the strawberry is full of antioxidants, fights free radicals like no other, and can give you clearer, brighter skin, too?
Strawberries were used by ancient Egyptians to treat acne and other skin issues. Many iconic it-girls like Marilyn Monroe and Grace Kelly used strawberries as a facial cleanser as well! The delicious strawberry that we know and love packs some serious skincare benefits; that along with poppy seeds in our natural Merry Strawberry Scrub work together to deeply moisturize and protect the skin barrier.
Why Strawberries?
When it comes to superstar skincare ingredients, strawberries top the list. For starters, they’re rich in vitamin C, which is one of the most effective antioxidants you can find. They also contain alpha lipoic acid, which is another antioxidant. If you haven’t heard by now, antioxidants protect your skin from free radicals, which can speed up the signs of aging the more you’re exposed to them. Vitamin C and alpha lipoic acid also help brighten your skin for a more vibrant and radiant complexion. In addition to protecting and brightening, strawberry is a powerful hydrator and skin-softener. Essentially every skin type can benefit from a strawberry infusion. Those with dry, mature, or combination skin will benefit from its super hydrating properties, and those seeking a brighter complexion and some antioxidant protection will benefit from the vitamin C and alpha lipoic acid.
Why Poppy Seeds?
Poppy Seeds make an amazing partner to the strawberries in our Merry Strawberry Scrub because they have antioxidants that protect your skin and reduce signs of aging. Poppy seeds also reduce inflammation, moisturize the skin, and have a high amount of linoleic acid that is effective in treating eczema, burns, and itching skin.
Poppy Seeds with Strawberries together create a powerful duo in brightening the skin, slowing down signs of aging, and protecting the skin barrier altogether.
How is the Merry Strawberry Scrub Used?
Great question, we’re so glad you asked. 2-3 times a week, massage a layer of the scrub onto damp skin in circular motion and rinse it off with warm water. It is best used in the shower. If you deal with strawberry legs / arms this is the solution for you.
