Next up, we have the Toasted Marshmallow Foaming Body Polish—a sweet, exfoliating treat for your skin. The transition into fall often means drier skin, so exfoliation is key to keeping your skin smooth and glowing. This body polish gently buffs away dead skin cells while leaving behind the delicious scent of toasted marshmallows, making your shower experience indulgent and fun.

Use this foaming body polish a couple of times a week in the shower to keep your skin refreshed and ready to soak in all the moisture from your body creme. Focus on areas like your elbows, knees, and feet to ensure your skin stays soft as you start layering on cozy sweaters and boots.

This month, we’ve added a couple of irresistible sweet treats to your box: S’mores Popcorn and S’mores Stroopie Snack Mix.
