Most body care is sold on promises. The Bonbon Factory sells on smell, and it is hard to argue with a scrub that smells like caramel popcorn. The products are handcrafted in New Zealand, vegan and cruelty-free, with names that read like a dessert menu.
Our current range is small and focused. The Caramel Pop Crunch Body Scrub is a whipped exfoliator with oats, niacinamide and vitamin E. The Coffee Whipped Macaroon Scrub pairs coffee and sea salt with sunflower oil, cocoa and vitamin E for rough spots like elbows, knees and heels. The Vanilla Caramel Melt Coconut Oil is a whipped multi-purpose oil for body, hair, massage and after sun.
Use the scrubs on damp skin after cleansing, in circular motions, two or three times a week, then follow with the coconut oil. Any one of the three works as a small treat or an add-on to a bigger gift. For more, see our bath and body range.
Are The Bonbon Factory products vegan?
Yes. The Bonbon Factory products we stock are listed as vegan and cruelty-free, and they are handcrafted in New Zealand. Full ingredient lists are on each product page if you are checking for a specific allergy.
How often should I use a body scrub?
Two or three times a week is plenty for most skin. Massage onto damp skin in circular motions after cleansing, focus on dry areas like elbows, knees and heels, and rinse well with warm water.
What can the whipped coconut oil be used for?
The Vanilla Caramel Melt Coconut Oil is sold as multi-purpose: a daily body oil, a massage oil, a hair mask or an after-sun moisturiser. It is whipped, melts on contact with skin and is described as fast-absorbing and non-greasy.
Do Bonbon scrubs make a good gift?
They do, particularly as an add-on. A single scrub pairs well with a candle or a towel, and the dessert scents make them an easy choice when you do not know someone's skincare routine well.
