Back in the old days, if your skin wasn't naturally radiant and glowy, you just slapped a coat of cold cream on your face and went to bed hoping for the best. Nowadays, of course, there's serious technology applied to the science of skin. But for our money, body scrubs are one of the best basic beauty trends of recent years. Sugar scrubs, salt scrubs, enzyme scrubs, scrubs with essential oils, scrubs with honey, scrubs with ground-up herbs and spices... They're easy to use, they work wonders for your skin, and they come in apparently endless varieties. Scrub novices and know-it-alls alike will particularly love the Thom Fleming triple threat of scrubs, in flavors that sound as delicious as they smell: Rainbow sorbet, mochanilla and lemon souffle. $30 at ThomFlemingSkinCare.com.
