The gently exfoliating product is said to be beneficial for everything from [cellulite and stretch marks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/firming-shea-sugar) to ingrown hairs. Beyond exfoliating, the four-in-one body care product is also useful for detoxifying, smoothing, moisturizing and illuminating the skin, as it contains flecks of eco-friendly mica.
