Is a body scrub sore, relaxing, or what?

Got an all over body scrub booked as a present and not sure what to expect.

Anyone had one? Was it like having someone scratching you? Is there a massage part to it?

It isn't sore but it certainly wasn't anything like a massage when I had one.

She rubbed the scrub in, wrapped me up, let me relax for a bit; then took the wrappings off and I had to hop into a shower (it looked like a shower cubicle you'd have at home but in the corner of this beauty room, zero privacy but she went out of the room)

I found mine super weird but I think it's because I didn't know what to expect.

I didn't feel any better for it either.

Hope yours is better than mine 😂

I had a body scrub years ago. It wasn't sore at all, just a really good exfoliation from head to toe. I did find it quite relaxing. I showered it all off and then had body lotion applied. My skin felt amazing for days afterwards.

I love a scrub. I find it relaxing and my skin feels brilliant afterwards.

It's a really good way of exfoliating your skin. They gave me paper pants to wear and a large towel to cover myself. They then remove parts of the towel to apply the scrub. Once you are covered, you then shower yourself off and then a body lotion is applied. I found it okay, it wasn't painful and my skin felt amazing afterwards for quite a while.
