I received some samples of yummy-sounding natural sugar scrubs from a company called Simple Sugars. The multiple flavors like Pomegranate and Coconut came in a beautiful package with great graphics and containers. I started to flip through the background information about the company to find out how these products were made and I did a complete double take at the first paragraph…the founder is how old? Lani Lazzari, the creator of Simple Sugars’ all-natural handmade facial, body, and foot scrubs started the company when she was eleven years old! Incredible!
I love supporting small local companies that provide handmade products with a recognizable dose of personal care and attention…and a fun history. Eleven-year old Lani made her first batch of skin products as holiday gifts for friends and relatives in 2005. She created the products using all natural ingredients like pure cane sugar and natural oils because she had sensitive skin that reacted easily to the chemicals in most commercially-available products. Everyone loved their gifts, so she decided to create Simple Sugars to offer the world her all-natural sugar scrubs. Today the entire collection of deliciously-scented scrubs are concocted in the former craft room at the Lazzari house!
The best part about the Simple Sugars are the scents! The body and facial scrubs come in a wide variety of natural scents that include pomegranate, coffee,green tea, almond, lime, and lavender. I accidentally spilled the Coconut scrub all over my bathroom counter and it smelled delicious for days! There is definitely a refreshingly homemade touch to the Simple Sugars with hand-written expiration dates and little plastic spoons that come with the scrubs so you can stir them up before using them. These elements remind me how fresh and handmade these products are, which is really quite a nice change from the commercially produced products available at the drugstore.
