First of all, full disclosure, if you are vegan or do not believe in using animal products you are not going to like this. We fully respect your views and that is why we offer our scrubs both with and without the emu oil. 

However, we have a mission to create the best products possible for sensitive skin sufferers and to ignore emu oil for this group of people would be irresponsible in our humble opinion.

So here are some very compelling reasons to add emu oil to your body or facial scrub:

1) Emu oil is non-comedogenic (like all of our oils) and will not clog your pores.

2) Emu oil penetrates deeply into the skin so it provides superior moisturization but will not leave you feeling oily or greasy.

3) Emu oil has potent anti-inflammatory properties which means it helps relieve redness and itchiness. 

4) Emu oil has the allergenic potential of water and is very close in composition to the natural oil our skin produces, so it is nearly impossble to have a reaction to it.

5) Emu oil contains:

• Vitamin A, a known skin repairer and antioxidant
• Linoleic acid, which helps to ease muscle aches and joint pain
• Oleic acid, a proven skin cell regenerator and anti-wrinkle agent
• Sapogens, proven skin softeners
• Terpines, known antiseptics

6) Emu oil protects against sun damage and has been shown in studies to actually stimulate new cell growth.

Honestly we could go on and on. If you can get past the fact that this remarkable oil comes from the back fat of a bird, you are in for some serious skin benefits! We definitely recommend adding the emu oil to your scrub if you have eczema, psoriasis or any other troublesome skin condition. We also recommend adding it to your facial scrub because if even half of the information about how it prevents wrinkles and stimulates new cell growth is correct, then why not?

Let's see what Janice had to say about the Vanilla Scrub with Emu Oil:

"I have a 10 year old son who had severe eczema since he was an infant. My husband and I have tried everything, including taking my son to the family doctor and dermatologist. The dermatologist prescribed medicine, and it worked... BUT my son hated when we did the treatment because it burned, and it was a process that took 7 days... Over the summer, I happened to watch Shark Tank, and I thought why not see if this works.  I ordered Vanilla Scrub with emu oil.  We used it once, and his eczema is 95% gone. Best part, it did not hurt my son's scalp!! Thank you!!"

Let's see what Samantha from Hawaii had to say about her Simple Sugars experience: 

"In 5 years I've had 5 different doctors give me 5 different diagnoses for my problems with my hands and feet. Eczema, psoriasis, fungus, athletes foot, and just plain dry skin... I went to our local holistic store and the things they recommended were helpful, but did not control the problem.  I've been using your Simple Sugars [body scrub] for about a month and holy cow!!! I've tried everything under the sun to control/cure the dryness, itching, redness, oozing, and just plain ugliness on my hands and feet. I've spent the last week staring at my hands and feet in awe... There are not enough words to tell you how much I appreciate your products so I'll just tell you (as we say here) Mahalo e malama pono." 

We later found out (with the help of a Hawaiian Internet translator) that "Mahola e malama pono" means thank you with deep gratitude and take care.  Although we found ourselves a tad jealous of the Hawaiian weather right now, it is incredible that our body scrubs had such a powerful impact on Sam.

Here is what Christine had to say about her Simple Sugars Body Scrub: 

"I have psoriasis and was struggling last year big time. I happened to see your show on Shark Tank while flipping through the channels and was drawn to watch for some reason. I think it was meant to be... I am obviously not healed, but it makes a major impact on how my skin feels.  It is like a magical cure for the time being... I have tried at least four [body scrubs] and love every one. Thanks for saving me! I cant thank you enough.  It really changed my life."
