Red Wine…It’s Not Just For Drinking

After a long day at work, I enjoy coming home and relaxing with a glass of wine at dinner. But, I never thought to treat the outside of my body with red wine too. That is until I came across a Red Wine Body Scrub by Abrione.

The Red Wine Scrub contains anti-oxidants from red wine extract, green tea, cranberry, grape seed oil, and vitamin E to help skin look radiant and fight against the aging effects of the environment. Hey, if a glass of red wine can calm and soothe me, I figure I had a chance of the same thing happening to my skin.

The first time I used the scrub, I must confess that I was a bit turned off by the scent. When it comes to bath products I like smelly products and by smelly I usually go for fruity or flowery. The Red Wine Scrub had more of an earthy smell that didn’t do much for me. However, if you prefer bath scrubs without much scent then this would probably work for you.

I enjoyed the exfoliants on the skin and couldn’t help, but think how much dead, winter skin that it was removing. The peppermint oil along with the menthol gave my skin a slight tingle feeling which I liked because it made my skin feel so clean after a scrub! After using it for only about a week I can’t truly speak about the anti-aging effects it supposedly prevents, but I can say that every time I use the scrub my skin feels wonderful.

So the next time you fill up your wine glass, don’t forget that red wine isn’t just for drinking, but makes a great Body Scrub too. Cheers!
